Japanese Teriyaki Chicken

Japanese Teriyaki Chicken by manabu masuda

Buy a bottle of Teriyaki sauce? NO!! It is amazingly easy to make teriyaki sauce at home. All you need is soy sauce, mirin, and sugar. The key ingredient is mirin, which adds shiny look (teri). You can find mirin in Japanese, Korean or Chinese grocery stores .

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!

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…

Pan Fried Miso Salmon bowl with Faro or Wheatberries

Pan Fried Miso Salmon bowl with Faro or Wheatberries by John Spottiswood

This dish is absolutely amazing and also makes a beautiful and fun party dish. We've served this three times since we discovered it - once at home and twice for parties. It's been a huge hit every time and multiple people have asked for the recipe, so I am happy to finally share it. Don't be scared to try wheat berries or faro if you…

Japanese Omelette/Tamagoyaki: Basic Recipe

Japanese Omelette/Tamagoyaki: Basic Recipe by Robert-Gilles Martineau

I’ve been asked of late about the basic recipe for “Tamagoyaki”, or Japanese traditional omelette. There are two ways of making it: 1) the slightly difficult one with chopsticks I’m going to explain today. 2) the easier one, but not traditional way, using European/American tools, which will become another report. Incidentally I…

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.…

Yakatori

Yakatori by Aspen Lee-Moulden

This recipe is great with steak, chicken or pork. You will need to adjust the cooking time depending upon the meat or poultry you use for the skewers. My kids loved this! It's going into my rotation for family dinners.

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…

Tonkatsu Sauce

Tonkatsu Sauce by Anne Kruse

A sauce for Japanese pork cutlets. Used in fried rice, and yokisoba. Would probably go well on a lot of other things too!
