Tempura (天ぷら) is a classical Portuguese dish brought to and popularized by Japan, consisting of seafood or vegetables that have been battered and deep fried. Tempura is a typical home-style cooking in Japan. It is often referred to as a representative dish to Japan. Although there are various theories, it is said that Tokugawa Ieyasu, the general of the Edo period, liked tempura so much that he allegedly died from eating too much.
Japanese popular alcoholic drink must be Sake, or called Nihonshu, made from fermented rice. The foundation of good sake is quality rice, clean water, koji mold and yeast. Premium sake differentiates itself in quality of ingredients and production process, so that flavors ranges light and crisp to richer, fruity notes.
The astringent constituent in Japanese tea is a type of polyphenol called catechin. Japan has done a great deal with the humble tea leaf. For example some benefits of the catechin in the tea leaf can lower cholesterol in some cases. Roasted over charcoal at a high temperature and grown under shade for at least 20 days are one of the examples. The most popular Japanese tea might be ryokucha. Depending on the timing of picking the leaves, the grade, the price can be noticeably different.

Thank you for visiting my page. I'm a certified cooking instructor with the Japan Association of cooking for Foreigners.
I was born and raised in Kawasaki city、Kanagawa Pref. and moved to Nagoya 10 years ago. My father often invited his friends and relatives for dinner at my house. As a child, I enjoyed watching my mother prepare lots of delicious Japanese dishes for home parties, and I really loved the lively feeling of sharing the food with everyone.
Because of these experiences, after moving to California, I often cooked Japanese dishes for my friends. It brought me joy to see them enjoying Japanese cuisine regardless of their nationality or background.
I love meeting and talking with people from around the globe. Please share a story about you and your country while cooking at my house!
