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.
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.
In this experience, you will enjoy making traditional Japanese sweets called shiratama-dango using glutinous rice flour. You will make dango from dough and boil them! Three kinds of topping for shiratama-dango will be prepared.
And you will also make stuffing dumplings which is amazing in matcha syrup.
Since shiratama-dango is made from rice flour, it could be a light meal as well. (Actually, you can put shiratama-dango into your miso soup!) So let's taste them with miso soup and Japanese rolled omelet.
You will learn how to make simple Japanese soup stock which is known as DASHI to make wonderful miso soup.
Japanese rolled omelet is one of the most popular and favorite Japanese mom's cooking!
