Miso Salmon (Dengaku)

Miso Salmon (Dengaku) by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a wonderful, mildly flavored dish. Japanese food is comfort food for me, and nothing goes down more smoothly than this dish. The sweet and salty miso glaze brings out the best in the salmon without overpowering it. Our kids love it too!

FRIED SHRIMP DONBURI (Ebi Fry Don buri)

FRIED SHRIMP DONBURI (Ebi Fry Don buri) by John Spottiswood

You can make this dish with any type of Japanese fried meat (tonkatsu-fried pork, chicken-katsu, shrimp-katsu, etc.) Katsu is easy to make in large batches. So if you end up with leftover fried meat, you can use it the next day to make this delicious Donburi. Of course, this is good with freshly made katsu too. When I lived in…

Shrimp and Tofu Donburi

Shrimp and Tofu Donburi by John Spottiswood

I adapted this recipe from a mixed tempura donburi, substituting fresh shrimp and tofu without the tempura batter. The result is a healthier, and still very tasty, dish that our whole family really enjoys. You can use chicken or salmon in place of the shrimp, and it is equally delicious! Donburi's are wonderful cold weather food.…

Slightly Spicy Chicken Donburi

Slightly Spicy Chicken Donburi by Nancy Miyasaki

We make this Donburi with just the curry powder...then add the chili sauce to each bowl as desired. Our kids like this fine without the chili sauce, and John and I add about a tsp each. This is a warm and delicious meal for fall or winter!

Eggplant Donburi

Eggplant Donburi by Nancy Miyasaki

As a Japanese american, I have a soft spot for donburi (Japanese term for just about anything served over rice). Our kids love it too. We mix up a warm bowl of brown and white rice and cover it with something warm, salty, sweet, and occasionally a bit spicy. This is rib sticking good, and best served in fall, winter or the early…

Broiled Salmon with Miso Glaze by Bob Vincent

This is adapted from a recipe that appered in Bon Appetit magazine in 1999. It comes from Buddakan restuarant in Philadelphia. The original recipe called for cod fillets but I had salmon on hand.
