Hi, I love Exotic food, above all else Asian food and in general Asian culture.

I discovered your blog recently but it is already became a must for me 🙂

I hope that during the 2016 your will continue to blog as you are doing now.

Have a good weekend,
Andrea

I’d like to see:
1) more healthy versions of the fried food on your blog
2) move voice over on your videos
3) more of you in front of the video instead of just your hands! I enjoyed seeing you in giving little introduction and closing comments in your videos.

(Ticket 2).

I enjoy your newsletters. Might I reccomend a trip to Western Japan on your next visit? The Shinkansen now goes directly to Itoigawa from Tokyo. It is a beautiful city nestled between the mountains and the Sea of Japan. The food is as delightful as it is diverse. The Geopark is als a great place to visit with kids!

I subscribed to your newsletter!

2) I’d like to see some of the gluten-free ideas you mentioned. The rice-based dishes (and soba, if you use 100% buckwheat noodles) have been a great start, but I was curious about the ideas you mentioned a few months back.

4) I liked your page on Facebook (a while back now)

Already get your newsletter! (Though I kind of wish we didn’t have to, because I already read the posts on my feed reader & then also get an email about them)

Thank you for a great 2015 of Japanese cooking. Dropping by to see your instructions for cooking rice in a rice cooker. Managed to bring one with me on my recent Japan trip.

I love your website! I’ve made quite a few of your recipes and have greatly enjoyed them. I’ve been learning to cook Japanese food for a few years now and write a blog about my culinary journey, WashokuDay.com. I have recommended several of your recipes there. Everything I have made from your site comes out perfectly and is easy enough for every level! Thank you very much for all your hard work.

Coming back from my honeymoon in Japan, I’ve recently become obsessed with packing bento boxes for my lunch, so I would like to see more bento box recipes!

For 2016, I would like to see more (Japan) regional specific dishes.

Thanks so much for your awesome recipes!
Christiellen

I continue to enjoy reading your blog, reading about your wonderful travels and about your family.

Hi Nami!

What I would really love to see on your blog is something like examples of what you typically make for a dinner at home. For example, what combination of dishes do you make? Sometimes it’s difficult to think of what dishes to put together, so that would be really helpful!

Also, this might be a separate or additional thing, but it would also be great to know in what order you do things when you’re making the whole meal. For example, first you marinate the meat for Dish 1 and set it aside, then you chop the vegetables for Dish 2, etc. etc. That might be a lot of work to think about, so no pressure! But as a new parent I am working on increasing my speed in the kitchen, and I think your techniques would be really helpful! 🙂

Thanks as always for the amazing blog! It is always my first go-to place when I’m thinking of what to make for dinner. 🙂

I would like to see some recipes I can make then take with me. I have tried dehydrating some things to make them more portable, with varying results. Elaborate recipes are nice for home but it would be nice to have something homemade to take with me, for when I can’t prep all that and still want some great Asian food.

I would love to get more of simple recipes with less 5-6 ingredients that I can try during weekdays!

thanks!

Hi Naomi,

I’ve read your blog for at least 2 years (I think)! It has always been so reliable, and so detailed documented with beautiful videos & photos. I tried so many recipes from the site and never failed. Thank you so much for sharing all these recipes!

I’m from Taiwan but lives in US, grew up eating lots of Japanese food (My grandma was a cook who worked in Japan) so I feel especially homesick in a lot of stuff you made!

I’d love to see more recipe that’s tie in with meal planning/grocery trip for a week/bento making. but it’s already good!

Also followed you on youtube, facebook.
Thanks and 加油 頑張って！

Hello Nami,

In 2016, if possible, I’d like to see more japanese style steak, pork or chicken recipes. It would be nice if you use a cast iron, because I bought one last year and I’m trying to use it as much as I can.

Thank you again,
