Seasonal Home Cooking
**EAT LOCAL, COOK LOCAL**
Make three-dish and have a 一汁三菜(three-dish and soup&rice) lunch together.
We use different vegetables depending on the season. Enjoy cooking with fresh and tasty ingredients!!
<
肉じゃが(pork,potato,and vegetable stew)
がんもどき（Fried Tofu）
青菜の胡麻和え(green vegetable with sesame sauce)
味噌汁(miso soup)
ごはん(rice)
◉We can harvest and cook fresh vegetable from the garden.
◉Please do request in advance if you like KARAAGE instead of Fried Tofu.
Japanese fried chicken, karaage is made by marinating bite-size pieces of chicken in sake, soy sauce, ginger and garlic before coating them generously with potato starch. When fried, the starch turns into an ultra crispy shell encasing a flavorful juicy bite of chicken. Absolutely great with beer.
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.
In my cooking house, we make...
Niku-jaga、Ganmodoki, and Ohitashi
They are standard Japanese home-cooked dishes.
**Niku-jaga is a stew with pork, potato,onion,carrots and some seasonal vegetables.
We put ingredients and simmer till tender with a sauce made with soy sauce, sugar, and mirin
**Ganmodoki is a deep-fried tofu fritter mixed with thinly sliced vegetables.
We mash tofu with mixed vegetables and deep fry.
**Ohitashi is blanching green vegetable tossing with soy sauce based broth. This side dish is very light and healthy, but tasty!
Hope you enjoy the food with the rice made in DONABE(clay pot) and homemade miso soup!

Hi! My name is Rika.
I live in Okutama, very west end of Tokyo.
My house is more than 100-year old farm house where silk warm was taken care to make silk.
There are full of nature around here, and
I enjoy harvesting garden vegetables, and cook them for my daily meals.
When I was traveling, I always enjoy spending time with local people, and having their cooking.
So now I want people visiting Japan to experience something special in the mountain village in Tokyo.
It takes about 2hours from the central Tokyo, but you can make a day trip easy.
Come to my place, feel like visiting your friend's.
