Whatever you are interested in at a supermarket or from manga/anime.
Firstly I will bring you to a grocery store 6 minutes walking out of my kitchen.
You will purchase whatever food you want to try to cook.
I will also figure out how to cook from Manga or Anime if it’s not only in fantasy. Bring show me its screen shots.
For example, you can try…
•Curry and rice
•Takoyaki
•Okonomiyaki
•Ramen noodles
More precisely…
• Curry and rice
Using a box of curry paste, we will have curry dishes for ordinary Japanese family. Have you wondered how you can obtain your curry just look like the picture on the box? Don’t worry, it’s super easy when you know it once. Suggested ingredients are carrots, onion, potato, shimeji mash rooms, meat of your choice from beef, pork, or chicken. Will be served with steamed Japanese rice.
• Takoyaki
Using boiled octopus of sashimi grade, we will bake cute savory balls, Takoyaki. The highlight is turning them with a long shin bamboo stick. You’ll be an amazing skilled Takoyaki turner after 2 or 3 batches! Taurine from meat of octopus is known for helping recovery from tiredness. The suggested ingredients are octopus, flour, egg, fish powder, green onion, ginger, seaweed, sauce, and mayonnaise if you wish.
• Okonomiyaki
This is a big flour patty with a lot of shredded cabbage, topped with thin slices of pork belly. Cabbage is good for stomach. The suggested ingredients are flour, cabbage, ginger, egg, pork, fish powder, seaweed, and sauce. Mayonnaise is optional.
• Ramen noodles
Using a bag of dried needles, we will cook it with whatever vegetables and meat.
Possible flavor is Shoyu, Shio, Miso, or Tonkotsu.
Suggested ingredients are cabbage, carrot, green onion, fish powder, seaweed, pork, egg.
Ramen is a noodle soup dish and perhaps one of the most popular Japanese dishes. There are many flavours of ramen, such as Shoyu (soy sauce) ramen, Miso ramen, Tonkotsu (pork bone) ramen and so on. Common toppings are Chashu (braised pork), Negi (green onion) and Nori (dried seaweed).
Takoyaki is very cute, small battered balls containing octopus. When you visit Osaka, you can see Takoyaki shops and people wandering the streets while eating it.
Okonomiyaki is a Japanese savory pancake, made with flour, eggs, shredded cabbage, meat and toppings as you like. This variability is reflected in the dish's name: "okonomi" literally means "to one's liking". You can eat it everywhere in Japan, but especially Okonomiyaki made Hiroshima style and Osaka style are the most famous.
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.
Basically you are going to watch what I do. Tell me when you would like to take over what I’m doing after I cut all the ingredients.
I’m going to ask you whether you want to do each time.
You will do only what you want to do.
Hi I’m Meg!
I’m interested in foreign tourists who are interested in Japanese ordinary home food. I will bring you to a grocery store in 6mins walking distance from my kitchen. You will purchase whatever food you would like to try there with suggested ingredients. We go back to my kitchen and I will show you how to cook/eat them.
My place is 3mins walk from Hagoromo, on Nankai railway (NK) between Namba and KIX. Hagoromo is 16mins from Namba, and 28mins from KIX.
Though the pickup icon is a car, my case is not a car. I can be at the station ticket check to walk back with you.
I’ve been cooking Japanese general family dishes for about 30 years learning cooking from mothers (my mom is from Tokyo, my husband’s mom is from Kyoto).
Our dishes could be… Curry and rice, Takoyaki, Okonomiyaki, Ramen, Miso soup, Mochi, Konnyaku, Natto, Shirataki, Tofu, Gobou, or anything else from the supermarket that make you wonder how it should be prepared with or without the instructions on these packages… I can show you how actually.
I maybe able to figure out how it’s cooked from picture in Manga or Anime if it’s not only in the fantasy. Bring show me the picture or screenshot of your dream dish to try.
I’m excited to see you then!!!
