I like you everywhere. What fantastic holiday gifts! You really know how to celebrate!
Hi Nami. How about recipes using aburage? I only know how to make cone sushi with aburage. thanks!
Thank you for this contest. I live in Hawaii and have eaten a lot of “shave ice”. I’ve recently bought shave ice from a local guy who makes his own syrups from fresh fruits. His mango, lilikoi, strawberry syrups really taste like the fruits! He claims his syrups are healthy. They aredelicious and different from the store bought syrups. Would you happen to know how people make their own “healthier” shave ice syrups?
I’d like to see more bento recipes! Lunch ideas for lazy people who don’t have much time… 🙂
I am a newcomer this year and enjoy your recipes. I particularly loved the Japanese Cheesecake and have received several requests to share the recipe. Not a problem, I tell them about your website. I know this is mainly about Japanese recipes, but do you have an easy recipe to make light and buttery dinner rolls? I am not very good with yeast.
Thank you and Happy Holidays!

Would want to learn more how to make japanese bento boxes for kids…Those that are made quite beautifully with characters. thanks!
Having lived in Japan, I feel that international cuisine that the Japanese have adopted and adapted to the Japanese palate are my kind of food — like the natto or takana spaghetti with bacon bits and shredded nori, and the raw potato salad, served at Angelo Pietro in Honolulu. I thought that that the international cuisine at Tokyo restaurants were superior to those of their native countries, whether French, German,
Italian, or even Hungarian.
Maybe you could print such recipes?
Hi Nami, I love reading your blog as it inspires me to cook. I would love to know what you can cook with red miso. Thanks
I love making cookies, breads and anything the kids want to help me with.
