Onigiri is a Japanese comfort food made from steamed rice formed into the typical triangular, ball, or cylinder shapes and usually wrapped with nori(dried seaweed). Stuffed with a a variety of fillings and flavors, these rice balls make an ideal quick snack and are a fun alternative to sandwitches for lunch.
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.

IZUMI
I've loved food since I was a child. I also love traveling. I'm also very interested in the cuisine, ingredients, and seasonings of other countries. Although I'm still learning English and my English isn't very good, I believe we can have wonderful communication by sharing delicious moments together. Our home, which will serve as the venue, is located in a very quiet and lovely area, just a few minutes' walk from Shimogamo Shrine and Tadasu no Mori Forest. I hope you'll spend time in the kitchen and living room of our family home and experience life in Japan, even if only for a short time. I hope you'll cook with me or watch me cook, and discover the wonders of Japanese seasonings, dried foods, and ingredients. I'd also like to share some tips for making delicious dishes and some easy homemade recipes. I hope to help you have a relaxing and wonderful stay in Kyoto, and I'd be happy to learn more about the world from you. I look forward to seeing you in my little kitchen.
