Nice to meet you♡
My name is Yuko.
Since my son was a junior high school student, I taught international students how to cook as a host family, and in 2007 I started holding cooking classes at my home.
The international students who came to our home,
Since I started giving priority to Japanese-style dashi, which is the basics of Kyoto cuisine, I have been teaching lessons based on cooking using dashi.
I would like everyone to learn about Japanese home cooking and the wonderful culture of Japan.
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).
Udon (うどん) is a type of thick wheat flour noodle. It is similar to Italian pasta, but much thicker. It has been eaten all over Japan as an easy-to-eat popular meal, and a substitute meal for rice dishes. Udon is often served hot as a noodle soup in its simplest form, as "kake udon", in a mildly flavoured broth called kakejiru, which is made of dashi, soy sauce, and mirin. The flavor of broth and topping vary from region to region.
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.
In this class, we will make Kyoto-style "Chukasoba"（Japanese udonsoup-rakuen ）.
Chinese noodles are used in place of udon, and "konbu"（Kelp） and "Katsuo"（bonito）broth soup that tastes like a udon store in Kyoto.
Ingredients will have a lot of sweet "Kitune"（"Oagenotaitan"fried Tofu）
and Kujo leek.
You can also enjoy Kyoto-style Tsukimi Chuka-soba（Japanese-ramen）with eggs if you like.
Soup flavor and nostalgic taste.
This is a dish with a unique soup stock from Kyoto.
I was born and grew up in Kyoto.
I would like you to taste the taste of vegetables and rice which are harvested in this place.
I believe that Japanese food should be casual and daily food. So I want to cook with the japanese dish whichi is focused on the taste od the material itself, harvested for local cconsumption and healthy for your body.
