Here is a video explaining the morning breakfast of Nobunaga, Hideyoshi, and Ieyasu. The video will show you how to prepare the dish as well as some historical facts of the three unifiers. Nobunaga was know to have a strong taste. He loved country style foods. The video above describes a Nobunaga breakfast of yuzuke/chazuke and yakimiso. Before the Battle of Okehazama, Nobunaga ate several bowls of yuzuke/chazuke.
The Chronicle of Lord Nobunaga (p. 59)
"When passing through the town, he would gnaw away at chestnuts, persimmons, or even melons, completely unembarrassed by the looks people gave him; or he would eat rice cakes while standing in the center of town."
Simple foods packed with flavor and nutrients kept Nobunaga healthy and stable. If you visit the Gifu City Museum of History or the Azuchi Castle museum, they have replica models of what Nobunaga ate on special occasions.
Nobunaga no tame!
