Japanese Street Crepes

Japanese Street Crepes by LittleJapanMama

Crepes are a big hit with young people in Japan. The paper-thin crepes are made fresh and rolled into a cone shape so they can be eaten on the go. Fillings include anything from strawberries and creme caramel, to tuna and lettuce. This is my version, made on a regular frypan at home. See my littlejapanmama link below for step-by-step…

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…

Wasabi Aioli Sauce

Wasabi Aioli Sauce by Maher Hazine

I call this Japanese Gravy. It goes well with fish but can be used on poultry, pork, lamb, as well as beef (only good cuts of meat) . You can use this as a vegetable dip (however, make it a little thicker) The Wasabi gives you the spice that we all seem to enjoy but not the lingering heat that takes away from our ability to taste the…

Okinawan Sweet Fritters

Okinawan Sweet Fritters by Tamara Daugherty

I grew up loving this delicate treat, both from the market in Okinawa (watching elderly women fry these up in giant cast iron pots) and made at home by my "Oba-ason" (Okinawan grandmother)". I use to wait for these little doughnuts to float on top in her pot over a wood-fed fire. (we never had a stove). Similar to the American version…

The “East meets West” expression has been used so many times that it has almost become corny, but this particular (and simple) cake definitely deserves the appellation!
