Rice is a staple food in Japan. In all most every family, there is a rice cooker. There is variety of Japanese rice brands such as Koshihikari and Hitomebore.
Miso soup is a traditional Japanese soup. It's base is "dashi" (Japanese fish stock) and Miso paste. Common added ingredients are Tofu, Green onion and deep‐fried tofu but differs by personal preference. The type of miso is different from region. In western and Easter Japan white miso is mostly used.

Thank you for visiting my page!
My name is Miho. I am a full-time homemaker who loves cooking and eating. I live in an apartment near Fujisawa station with my husband and 4-year-old son.
I used to enjoy eating out before my child was born. I wanted my son to enjoy same meals as we do. So, I’ve made almost all meals in my kitchen. I modified seasonings and texture of same dishes as my child grew up, and I started trying out complicated dishes I had never made before. My son has also enjoyed cooking with me since he was 1 year old. Though it takes a little time and effort, it makes me happy that my family loves my cooking.
I’m neither a licensed cook nor very fluent in English, however I’d be happy if you enjoyed my cooking. I look forward to meeting you!
