7 Year Blog Anniversary Giveaway (Closed) & Thank You

Love your recipes. My go to.

(I’m an email subscriber) my suggestion last time you asked was for more gluten free, which you’ve done, so…. Just keep up the good work I guess! Love the blog so much, so many good recipes!

Hello, I love your blog! But it crashes a lot for me. It happens on every computer I veiw it on. It will freeze, and then I’ll exit and go back into my recipe in a new tab. Thanks for everything! I love in PA, USA but I am from Ohio natively.

thanks for all the recipes.

I love your recipes! I found your blog by chance about a year ago and began regularly making your recipes with my kids this year. My only advice to you is—don’t change. You have made such a wealth of information available that it boggles the mind. The amount of effort and care you put into your posts boggles the mind. You don’t just give the facts—you give the context. And that gives your dishes, and indeed the process of cooking, extra meaning. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

You have the best giveaways! I love the blog: looking forward to more recipes.

Congatulations from Germany! My family and I love your recipes. My 9 year old daughter has now started learning to cook with your recipes and loves it! Thank you!
Please keep up the great work you are doing.

So very happy to have found your recipes. I am half Japanese, and am always looking for more comfort food recipes.

I find the recipes really easy to follow and make right. Since I also now have an instant pot, it would be nice to see more pressure cooker recipes.

I love your recipes. Thank you for sharing Japanese cooking with the world!

I found your website as I was browsing to make Teriyaki Salmon. I learned so much and wonderful video. Oh my! I was super excited to see other recipes to try and NOT ONE has EVER FAILED ME. AMAZING recipes, instructions and videos and I cannot say how in love I am with JOC!!!!

Hi Nami- My family and I love Japanese food, and you’re recipes are so delicious and simple to make. Thank you for taking the time to create your site, it has been a life and game changer in the kitchen.

I was born in a Mexican Jewish family and cooking was always a part of our family gatherings. But to be honest I have always felt more connected to japanese culture and food! I cook Japanese cuisine daily and your newsletter helps me learn and challenge me every day! When my husband and I visited Japan I would try many things based on your posts. Thanks so much for all you do! Love following along!

I love these recipes. My Mom is the same way, she cooks her Japanese food without measuring anything. How did you figure out how to convert your Mom’s recipes into measurable units?

I love the website. It answers many of my questions about wonderful Japanese cuisine. I know where to buy ingredients. The website is colorful, easy to search for specific things, well organized. I love step-by-step videos and instructions!! Always happy to get news from Nami.

Love your recipes – I adjust as needed to copy my obaachan’s 味 😊

After living in Japan for 6 years, I longed for recipe so of foods that I fell in love with. Thank you so much for your amazing recipes, photos, and videos!

Love your blog, keep the recipes comng

Hello Nani.

I married into a Japanese family and have made many of your recipes for my family and in-laws. My in-laws are always very happy with the taste of your recipes and say that they bring back many good memories.

Thank you for making Japanese food fun and easy to prepare.

Kristen

I would love to see if all dishes will have tutorial video attached to the page itself as I’m a beginner in cooking. Or maybe JOC mobile app : ) with meal planner features that will be superb

Overall I love it.

Hi Nami & Mr JOC!

I’m Huilan from Singapore.

I first came across your YouTube channel when i was searching for simple recipes on Earl Grey related desserts to speed up the use of my tea leaves. I remember it was your Earl Grey chiffon cake recipe video that was recommended to me by YouTube. Subsequently, I started following you guys on Facebook & Instagram to get to know your family as a person rather than just a “Cookbook”. It didn’t take too long before I subscribed to your newsletter. 🙂

I do not think that I’m qualified to provide useful feedback and suggestions on your blog and videos. Would just like to let you know how I admire both of you working together as a team, and how detailed the videos & recipes were (which came in very useful for someone like me who fumbles quite a bit in the kitchen). I hope one day I can cook as fuss free like you Nami, with my hubby like Mr JOC, taking photos/videos of the process for keepsake.

Keep doing what you’re doing, and have a great year ahead!

Yay! Congrats! Best Wishes for continued success.
Cheers, Lisa

What a wonderful giveaway! I have been following your blog for a while now and love all the japanese recipes you post (I originally found this blog looking for a homemade curry roux recipe). While I love making the recipes you post, sometimes I have difficulty finding the ingredients! Would love to have some substitutions (I know sometimes there aren’t any) or possible source of where to purchase the ingredient.

First of congratulations on the 7 year anniversary 😀 I’m a student from who really likes to cook and of course often I cook Japanese recipes. I actually cook. Japanese stuff for a few years already learning from Japanese friends, cookbooks ( for example Harumi Kuriharas books) and from the Internet (mostly from the amazing cooking with a dog but also some recipes from Here and there). I first found some of your recipes via Google and recommendations while viewing other Japanese cooking videos and since about a year or so I closely follow your blog. To be honest, I can’t think of any suggestions to make this channel better on the top of my head, because I think is already pretty amazing it is. Keep it up!

I love love our videos and am not qualified to offer suggestions other than I love yuzu so do some more with it 🙂 thanks and congratulations!!!

I love your recipes! The fresh anpan was definitely my favorite so far. It turned out so beautifully! 😀

I never win any of your contests but I keep entering! I love your website!

WOW WOW! Each item would be great in any kitchen

Thank you for this opportunity. Love your recipes and enthusiasm.

Congratulations on your 7 year-anniversary!
JOC is the only Japanese food blog I ever use, I love the quality of your photos, clear cooking instructions and the kind soul behind all this! I made lots of dishes from your recipes and everything was delicious!
There is not much I can suggest, you are doing an amazing job already. Maybe what I would like to see more is more regional and lesser known recipes from different parts of Japan. Something that we might have never heard of before.
Keep up with the good work, Nami!

Happy 7 years anniversary! Love everything about your website. The recipes, the blog, the travel tips, movies tips and everything else. Wishing another 7 years of happiness, success and good food!,,,

I only started following your blog recently, after I booked a trip to Japan, then realised instead of dreaming of street food in Osaka I should find a great blog to help tide me over 🙂 I would like to see more bento recipes! I am also loving all your instant pot recipes and would love to see more. Especially more quick pressure cooker recipes!

I love all your recipes and it is very fun to see how you prepare and cook the different foods. Although I am Japanese, I don’t know how to cook all the different foods. Thank you for teaching all of us with your wonderful recipes.

I look forward to seeing your recipes and videos in my email, on Facebook and Instagram. The ingredients are easy to find and recipes easy to follow. Congratulations on 7 years!

Hi there! 👋🏼 I found your blog just a couple of months ago looking for Japanese recipes through Pinterest. You definitely have inspired me to cook more cuisine out of my comfort zone! Arigato!

I’m subscribed to the newsletter

Congratulations on your 7yr anniversary. Thanks to you I have enjoyed Midnight diner. I like when you cooks the same dishes from the show.

I am new to your website. I found it when looking for recipes for hamburger steak and hijiki salad. Love your recipes!

Omedetou! Happy 7th anniversary Ms. NAMI I always check your recipe video. Its very easy to follow and the taste was really good. I love japanese food and cook for my family. Congratulations and keep it up! More power from Philippines

I love your blog and recipes, you are my go to for recipes. They are easy to understand and I have yet to make something I didn’t like! You’ve taught me a lot about cooking in general that I didn’t know before. Thank you

I already really enjoy your videos. I much prefer the sounds of you cooking (chopping, boiling, sizzling) with quiet background music rather than the emphasis on mostly the music in some of your newer videos. I am subscribed to your newsletter!

Thank you for sharing your recipes.
I found your blog by looking up Japanese recipes. I have lived in many places (live in the US now) so I don’t consider that I am from a particular city/country. I am 100% Japanese descendant though. いつもありがとうございます。今年もどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。

Visit your website at least once a week!

I love your okonomiyaki recipe – tastes just like it does in Japan!

I was lucky enough to find your website on Facebook. I have loved every one of your recipes, but the one I make the most is Dashi. I am a Miso soup addict! Your videos are clear and concise, making every dish I try come out so good! I look forward to learning more recipes in 2018. Thank you!

I’ve only recently started reading your blog, which I found when I was googling a Japanese recipe. I’m English but spent some of my childhood years in Japan and developed a lifelong love of the food I was eating.

Thank you for your emails and website. They’re a precious resource for me. The emails never fail to make me smile with pleasure, even when I’m having a bad day.

I live just outside of London with hubby and two dogs.

Would love to see your cute family in some of your vlogs!

Wow! Congratulations on 7 years of growing the JOC brand. I am so happy to find this blog since I check it for recipes and ideas pretty regularly. I think the blog and videos are great already. If you wanted to try out something more, maybe you could do a vlog for your trips (or maybe just a piece of them) abroad. You guys visit very interesting places.

I have been a fan of your cooking ever since I saw your strawberry mochi demo. I have made it many times and have told others about your website. You explain everything in detail and your recipes are so easy to follow. I was fascinated by the kamaboko design and made it for a New Year’s party and again shared your website with others there. I look forward to making the kabocha casserole next. I enjoy reading about your activities and the trips you take with your family. I learn so much about Japan through your cooking. Thank you so much for sharing your tasty recipes.

Congratulations on 7 years! I always love receiving your newsletters.

Love reading your posts and so many recipes that make my mouth water!

Love reading your posts and so many recipes that make my mouth water!

Happy Anniversary and here’s to many more! Love your site and the clarity of your recipes! Wishing you continuous prosperity!

There are few things in life I get excited about, my kids, food and JOC new recipes and blogs. Thank you Nami and Mr JOC for making my life little more fun and rewarding. Thank you…

Made the pressure cooker ox tail and it was awesome. Have tried a lot more recipes and am never disappointed. Would like to see more instant pot recipes.

I found your blog by looking on youtube for Japanese cooking in USA. Love the soup recipes, rice, and seasonal vegetable dishes. I do eat meat, just not a lot.

Love the dishes you present and tips.

Happy 7th anniversary JOC! Wish you more years of sumptuous Japanese cooking and amazing blogs!

I am new to the blog and I am from Ecuador, I found your blog through google while looking for recipes. My suggestion is to include alternatives to hard to find ingredients. Congratulations on your 7th anniversary.

This is the first and only food blog I subscribe to – love every thing you post! I would love to see more dessert recipes – I’ve made a few and they always turn out amazing, and I always want more!

The experience of reading your recipes would be greatly improved and enhanced with less advertisements popping up in the middle or around the recipe.

Thanks very much for your detailed and amazing Japanese recipes!

The first food recipie I’ve seen and tried from you was your salmon terriyaki =) Ever since then, I’ve been excited whenever a new blog comes out after that and can I say, so far, you site is just one of the few that I just love to follow. You have made me so motivated to cook for me and my family. Your recipies are so easy to follow; the feature I really love is how you put pictures of the ingredients and steps. In addition, I also love how you add videos to some recipies to give us a great visual. Some people have asked me how in the world I can cook such delicious meals, and I would be like, “Oh! Check out JOC!” Anyways, just love, love your recipies so keep it up! For suggestions, maybe color code some important words and actions in your recipies? But I can tell you’re always making your blog in a fun and creative way every time you post! Can’t wait for the next one!

First of all, congrats on the milestone. Seven years is a real feat when it comes to a blog. So many come and go, but the good ones really do stay around! Secondly, what an amazing list of prizes. I’m in awe! I really love the recipes you share and am personally obsessed with Asian cooking (especially Japanese). We’re working on reducing the amount of meat we eat at our house, but finding recipes that are suitable for a main course that have enough protein and other nutrients isn’t always easy. I’d love to see more recipes for healthy, filling meals that are little or no meat. My daughter and I love tofu, but we haven’t been able to get my husband on the bandwagon – yet. I’ve hidden meat free “meat” crumbles in things like spaghetti sauce with him being none the wiser, but I need more ideas. Thanks for all you do!

We visited japan last autumn and loved the people place and the food. Wanting to recreate a little bit of our memorable visit led to finding your site and signing up. I love seeing your recipes and have tried many. Yum yum. Thankyou wendy and howard

I can’t believe it’s been 7 years! My hubby and I have gotten so many recipes! Congrats! We love watching your travel videos

Hi there . I am new to your blog and really enjoy all your videos and recipes. I love Japanese food and culture. Please continue to do more Japanese home cooking videos like poke bowls and maybe different types of ramen. Thanks for all your inspirations,😊
Sandy

I heard about this blog through YouTube! I think it is wonderful!

Your recipes have been great, and I especially like the videos. I consider them essential to actually making them, and they are made really well. And we love seeing the travel videos, too! I haven’t been a subscriber for all this time, but I truly do enjoy every update, every recipe. Thank you for the ideas, skills, and inspiration!

Recently tried your mochi recipe – delicious!

Hello Nami san SOC san! Great job on your blog. I like especially that most of ingredients in your recipes can be found in the U.S. quite easily.

What I would like to ask for is (a bit) more vegetarian recipes. I recently watched a Japanese drama called ‘Sachi no o tera gohan’, and the shojin ryori in that show really amazes me, even though I am not a committed vegetarian. This show proves that it is possible to cook delightful and delicious meals without using meat, which I always doesn’t feel comfortable handling.

Found you via Facebook! We live in Portland Oregon and love your blog and videos

Hi Nami,
I have enjoyed your recipes very much. I’ve tried some when I was able to get the ingredients and they turned out great. Thank you so much and please keep them coming. 😲👍👌 Yvonne Matthyssen from Australia

I also cannot live without my microfiber hair towel. I cooked your goya champaru recipe and it was so good!

Hi Nami San! I moved in Japan two years ago (in Yokohama), I come from France, your blog saved my life.
When I discovered it, I tried new recipe every day (my husband is very happy too).
Japanese ingredients are easy to find here and I take a lot of pleasure to experiment your recipes.
I have posted some pictures of my recipes on Facebook and Instagram and sometimes we exchanged together few words.
Let’s continue to communicate and please continue to post your delicious recipes!
Thank you very much for your giveaway and see you soon on social media.
Alice

Hello from Canada! I was introduced to your site by my cousin, she had made your wonton soup recipe one day for me and it was so delicousin! I am now a big fan of your site your recipes your stories -all of it! I really enjoy all your step by step as well as your great food pictures 🙂

Love your blog. I was lucky enough to visit Japan and had a home stay with a really nice family and your site is where I come to recreate some of the food I got to sample. Being it the Caribbean sometimes it’s hard to find genuine products so thats for always providing links for where they can be sourced online. Happy Anniversary!

I love your recipes but don’t watch many of the videos. I’d love to see even more recipes using tofu, especially silken tofu (that aren’t dessert!)

I recently discovered your posts and as a Hawaii girl who now lives in Texas, I was so happy to see Oriental food that is presented in a way that could be duplicated at home by someone unfamiliar with a lot of the ingredients and cooking methods! I love that the directions are clear and nuances explained in detail, also, the tips on how to find ingredients her in the U.S. I have learned so much about cooking and the types of food I grew up eating. Sadly, I have not made any of the recipes because the ingredients usually have some form of sugar or gluten or other ingredient that I have been warned to stay away from until I know what my body triggers are for dis-ease. But then, I also find that when I go back to Hawaii for a visit, I find myself sorely disappointed that I am no longer able to eat the majority of the meals I used to consume while growing up. Though I enjoy reading your posts even if I don’t get to prepare the dishes, I was wondering if, with the emphasis on healthy eating nowadays to help with obesity, diabetes, brain heath, thyroid issues, etc., are there some dishes you could feature in an article for those of us who wish to limit our food consumption to foods that help us on our health journey but still excites our palates?

Love the blog and recipes. Keep them coming! I particularly like the more traditional recipes. Thank you!

Hi Nami, I love your recipes but I wish you could develop some of your chiffon cake recipes for 10″ tube pans (as I think they are more common in households)!

I’m a big fan and use your recipes frequently and look forward to your emails. The only thing I can think of as something I’d like different on your website is if it was possible to have less ads. I know that’s a big way websites make money though, but I wish readers could help sponsor a site for you with less of those intrusive things!

Thank you for teaching me so much about Japanese food! We love your recipes 😃

Love your recipes & videos! They are so well done!
Arigato!

Congrats on 7 years!! I love your recipes! The only thing I can suggest is I would like to see some alternative options for ingredients that are more “readily available”… I live in northwest Indiana where asian groceries are scarce!!

I love you blog! I’ve made so many of the recipes on the blog and they are always great. Thank you!

Love the blog!

Your videos are so inspiring!

Congratulations! I enjoy reading you blog and watching the videos. Thanks for the chance to win!

Love your site! Many of the things you do remind me of my mom! She came from Tokyo and after meeting my dad on R&R came to the states.

You cannot top perfection Nami and Mr. JOC! ❤️
Every recipe you share, every picture you take is amazing! I just want to thank you both for your hard work, and sharing your beautiful recipes with us! I truly look forward to your vlogs and emails…,always!!

Sincerely, Mary – AKA (Mindy’s Mom)

enjoy all your recipes and good clear directions. You make Japanese cooking fun!

Congratulations!!!
I love your website. It is amazing, love the recipes and all your videos and blogs.
Keep up the fantastic job!!!

It was hard to think of any suggestions bc I love JOC as is! But one thing I think would be helpful for pressure cooker recipes is if you could include tips for readers who do not own one. (Unfortunately, I do not have space for one in my small apartment.) Thank you Nami and Mr. JOC !!

Nami and Mr JOC,
Have been following your blog and Instagram for a few years now. Really love it. Love the recipes you post and the travel posts too. When planning my own travels, I love to check out your posts to incorporate destinations or food places you have gone to. I tried several of your regcipes – Teriyaki Salmon, Mushi Pan, Honey Soy Sauce Chicken Wings , Miso Salmon , Gyoza, Matcha Cookies and the list goes on. Have not tried the instant pot recipes advice I don’t have a pressure cooker. Would love to try them. 😉

There are so many blogs out there, but I love yours most because I like your personality coming through the posts. You are so down to earth, real and an inspiration to me. Even though I know I am not likely to win anything but I just wanted to congratulate both of you on your 7th anniversary and to let you know you are loved by many of us so please keep going! 加油！

Nami, thanks for all the wonderful recipes and I look forward to the next 7 years blog anniversary.

Hello, I already subscribe to your news letter. I teach chess to children aged 5 to 11 and also teach cooking to those children. We have cooed several of your recipes. in the cooking class. thanks

Hi, I love all the recipes and watching the videos are very helpful. I would love to see this one day turn into an app with recipes and videos!

Your recipes helped me feed my picky toddler.
The pictures are extremely detailed and helpful for newbie moms/newbie cooks like me. 🙂

Learned about your blog when searching “how to make rice” and got hooked. Thanks for wonderful recipes, and also sharing basic cooking techniques. Would also love more articles about kitchen tools etc.

Am enjoying everything you share

Congratulations on seven years. Love your website and hope to win one of your prizes.

Congratulations on 7 years! I look forward to many more years of your enticing recipes and how you make them so easy to duplicate. We will never grow tired of receiving them. Here’s to a 100 more years!!!.

Hello JOC, can you have more recipes using the instant pot? My favorite is the kakuni which my family love it so much.

Seven years! Congratulations!!

Dear Nami-san,
I love cooking since when I was kid. Learned my cooking from my mother. I cook everyday and teach many dishes to my kids. I enjoy reading your mail as well as on FB and try your recipes so many times. Please keep teaching me new dishes. Thank you.
Kay

Wow! Congratulations! My husband and I love your recipes! Your recipes are amazing! Thank you so much 🙂

I love your blog! I went to Japan on exchange this summer so some of your recipes remind me of what my host mother used to make! Please continue with more dessert recipes; those are my absolute favorite!

Thanks for the easy to follow recipes on the website and youtube.
My partner and I eat like Kings because of it!

Love your recipes and all the great info.
Thank you

Hi Nami,
Have been subscribed to your website for awhile. Absolutely love your recipes, which are clear and concise, and easy to follow. Also appreciate you sharing your travel stories and tips! Thank you for all the hard work you put into your site!

Thanks for sharing your favorite things

Your recipes are amazing and they are very helpful with my college days. Simple, healthy and super delicious.

Wow! 7 years! And now Mr. JOC is full time with JOC! Now I hope you have more family time on the weekends and evenings. You made me understand how to cook Japanese dishes. Thank you and congratulations!

Great videos and recipes. Would be good to include
1.advice on how to select fresh ingredients
2. Pairing food with wine or sake
3. Meal planning

I love your blog and videos and I think they are full on, there is really no suggestion needed. I tried several of your recipes too and love them. I would really love to win the One pot wonder😜. Would be great present for my 40th Bday next month!

I’ve been using your website for over five years now and I still find it amazing! Everything is well explained and the pictures you post next to the cooking instructions really help!! Thanks for helping me enjoy japanese cuisine from home (Barcelona, Spain)!! 😊

Love your cooking videos! They are easy and clear 🙂
Hope there will be more dessert videos in the future 🙂

Hi! I am already a
Subscriber and appreciate all the yummy recipes. I love your instant pot recipes. I would love to see any IP dessert recipes (besides cheesecake) if you have any in mind. Also any seafood recipes! Thank you!

Congratulations on your 7th Anniversary! Keep up the great work. Your blog just keeps getting better and better. Even if I don’t try the recipes, I find the content useful and engaging.

Love your blob Nami

Hi Nami,

My boyfriend (who loves to cook) and I really enjoy your blog. His mother is Japanese and when we first met, one of the first meals he made for me was chicken Katsu curry with fried ebi. He told me he wanted to pull out all the stops in order to impress me so I would want him to stick around 🙂 I had never had much Japanese food before meeting him, so I tried to educate myself and came across your blog. Two years later and I often use your blog to request new recipes to try out with him. Thank you to you and Mr. JOC for putting so much effort into it! I made your onsen tamago the other night for udon dinner for the third or fourth time. It made me think how much I enjoyed the video. Please continue making videos as well! They are such a nice complement to the written recipes.

[email protected]

The items you have written are easy to understand and the ingredients are accessible. It is a quick read. Reminds me of my mother…

I really appreciate your information on authentic ingredients, the flavor profiles and how and where to purchase them and ranking the brand names as good, better,best. This has made it so much easier to try new recipes especially since I have to order most ingredients. I love being able to cook items at home where I can control the additives, fat content etc. Love your recipes as they have introduced me to so many new food items and flavors.

I love, love, LOVE your blog. It’s my go to go Japanese recipes and it’s so easy to follow. I’ve tried rolled omelets, musubi, gyoza, and onigiri (still have to work on this one). I even started to learn Japanese. Thank you for taking time out of your day to bring this blog to the masses. Take care and arigato-gozaimasu!

Not sure how long I’ve been watching your videos, but I enjoyed everyone I’ve seen so far. The instructions are easy to follow and lil by lil I’ve noticed my cooking skill improving 🙂 Thank you for continuing the great work. I also follow you on Facebook and that’s how I discovered about your blog as well

Congrats!

Hello Nami san,
Learned alot of delicious home cooked food from your blog. Cld you please do more videos on pressure cooker cooking because I still have phobia in cooking with pressure cooker. Thank you.

Hiya! I’ts been awhile since i’ve entered one of your contests. But in regard of your amazing anniversery i wanted to participate! I have no suggestions because this blog is for me already perfect. Keep up doing the amazing work and being the amazing person that you are!

Lots of Love
Skye

Happy anniversary!
almost a year since I found JOC and it’s been great experience
now that I think about it, it’s the start of my interest in japanese foods

if you can make the web more mobile friendly I’ll gladly appreciate it!
keep up the good work! always nice to see the story behind each recipe

Congratulations on your 7th year !!! You are such an inspiration, makes me want to start my own blog too!!!

I love your desserts, & would love to see more of it !!!! Kudos to the videos!! Love that they’re such high quality!!

Love all the content on this blog. Food especially, but following your travel logs also allows me to live vicariously through you and your family as I don’t have the opportunity to go back to Japan as often. Keep up the great work!!

So have enjoyed your recipes and Utube videos, Thank You!
My husband and brother both lived in Japan as very young boys. Their mother has been long past so have no actual recipes, and they both have definate favorite foods from that period of their lives.
I have been trying to replicate these recipes from their descriptions. I Love to cook and have found your recipes to be very close to what they are asking for. Thank You

Hello!
I’m from Colombia but I currently live in France. I follow your blog since some years ago, I was searching for a home japanese food blog and I just fall in love with your posts, they are very spontaneous and feel real. Moreover, commonly you do some research regarding ingredients and techniques!
I would love to see more fusions recipes in your blog and make from the scratch 🙂
I know that there have some posts about, but I think that the recommendations for restaurants, stores, etc are not easily to be found.

I love everything about your blog . It’s informative and I learn a lot . I can’t think of anything I’d change.

Congratulations on your 7th blog anniversary, Nami!
I’ve been reading your posts and trying your delicious recipes for years. Thank you for all your wonderful work!
I love the new search function design since you changed the design of the website. I can’t really think of anything to improve, except that the search button on the mobile version of the website sometimes doesn’t line up properly??
Anyway, congratulations again!

Just one cookbook is my go-to site for Japanese recipes. I like the variety, I like your videos, and i like how you make suggestions for substitutions for items that might be hard to find outside of Japan. I can’t imagine how you would improve the site. Happy Anniversary!

Your blog is my top sites I go to for recipes. Thanks for sharing ! Maybe we could have quick tips or ingredient substitutions available, but overall your content is great!

Hi!
I am from Yokohama and have lived on Guam for over 40 years. I have been a subscriber for a year now and love the chance to try recipes I grew up eating but did not know how to make!! It is getting harder to find Japanese foods and products here but at least have basics. Would like to see videos on making a variety of pickles…
Congratulations>>>omedeto gozaimasu<<< on your anniversary!!!

I’ve been a longtime subscriber and love your newsletter. Seven years, keep up the good work!!!

I just love your blog. I just stumbled on your Japanese Strawberry Shortcake. Debating whether I want to attempt to make it. Sounds delish. Love your videos.

Love reading your blog! Thank you!

Hi Nami,
I’ve been a fan for a couple years now and never cease to enjoy your delicious recipes! I would love to see more quick and easy recipes or those with ingredients easily found in the U.S.
Thank you!
Raneem

I’ve been watching your channel for almost 3 years I believe, and all of your recipes are so easy to follow and well planned out. I’ve tried a couple of them myself, including ramen, gyoza, and other really simple recipes. You and your husband do an amazing job keeping up the channel and the blog!

I love your blog-especially when you describe places you visit in Japan. So many places I would love to see. I have a suggestion for your next trip. The Itoigawa Seafood Shuttlebus https://www.hakuba1.com/pdf/seafood.pdf
This part of Niigata is so rich with seafood and other local treats.

It’s been a pleasure to read your recipes and your travel blogs.
They are not just informative, but beautifully written and fun as well! To be honest, I have a hard tome thinking of any suggestion to improve them. Let me just ssy keep up the good work!🙂

Stumbled across your blog earlier last year searching for Japanese recipes. Loving the blog, the tips, and the recipes.

I love your emphasis on getting all the ingredients together first. As in Chinese cooking, it’s 90% preparation and 10% cooking. The most infuriating thing when it comes to cooking is when you forgot a single ingredient and either you don’t have it or it’s not ready.

First, thank you so much for the chance! I am a subscriber. I would love to see some more substitutions. Happy seventh!

I love your blog and your recipes. They are so well done, that it makes it easy for someone like me (who is not a good cook) to follow! Please keep up the awesome work and huge congratulations on the anniversary! 😀

Hello Nani. I’m new to your blog. I found the when I googled a recipe for yakisoba noodles. I love cooking and trying new and different recipes. I look forward to learning from you.

Hi Nami, Im from Spain and I love japanese food and your recipes help me a lot to make it easy. Thank so much for share them with us. Congatulations in your aniversary.

Nami San, I have a good Okinawa friend who tells me about the food she used to eat there. I’m not sure where you’re from but maybe do a “tour of Japan” series showing off the various regions specialty’s. So glad I found your blog, it’s hard to find good Japanese recipes. Thank you

I would love it if you do more vegan friendly stuff.
Your Vegetarian Ramen is divine and everything I make from you which I veganize is terrific. I just wanted more things that are intentionally vegan.

I just started reading a couple months ago when I got a bunch of Chinese ingredients from my mom. You have been a great resource!

Love the your recipes. They are very well prepared and written. Tried out many of your sweets with azuki beans. They are great. I was wondering if it is possible to add more vegan recipes or advice on vegan options for meat dishes. Thank you for letting us read about all those amazing Japanese food and culture!

Congratulations on 7 years.

I love your recipes, they’re easy to follow and delicious results.

Congratulations on your 7 year anniversary! Thank you for all your hard work. I love trying your recipes! Best wishes for continued success!

I don’t have much feedback because you do such a great job! I love how easy it is to follow your recipes and the videos are well made.
