Shira-ae is a traditional Japanese dish primarily made with tofu. In this dish, tofu is mashed and seasoned with ingredients like white miso, sugar, and soy sauce, then mixed with boiled vegetables or seaweed. Common vegetables used include spinach, carrots, daikon radish, and konnyaku (a type of jelly made from konjac).
The dish is characterized by its creamy and smooth texture, thanks to the tofu, and the colorful vegetables add visual appeal. It is also nutritious and popular as a healthy option. One of the great things about Shira-ae is that you can vary the ingredients according to the season, allowing for many different variations.
Shira-ae is not only enjoyed as a home-cooked meal but is also commonly served at festive occasions and in bento boxes. Its simple preparation makes it an appealing dish to enjoy.
Hello everyone! I'm YUUMI.
I've been an international flight attendant for 18 years, and now I'm a mother to an 8-year-old daughter and a 5-year-old son.
Having tasted cuisines from around the world, I've grown to truly appreciate the deliciousness and health benefits of Japanese home-cooked meals. That's why I want to share easy and tasty recipes with visitors to Japan. I believe that cooking together and sharing stories can bring joy and happiness, which is why I joined Air Kitchen.
Recently, I also became a certified cheese sommelier and a food education instructor. I love cooking and often invite friends over. I try to use organic vegetables, meat, rice, and additive-free seasonings whenever I can, and I’d love to share that with you!
My home is conveniently located in the Shibuya and Daikanyama areas, just a short walk from popular sightseeing spots. We also have a balcony, so on sunny days, we can enjoy meals outside!
Right in front of our home are hotels popular with foreign guests, so you can have a great time exploring Tokyo.
I can't wait to cook and chat with all of you. Let’s create wonderful memories together! (^^)
