Zouni


I forgot up to load this one.
In Japan, we eat Zouni on the New Year day. It's Japanese custom. Not all of Japanese maybe but many peoples eat it! The main stuff is rice cake♪Japanese eat rice cake in the new year day and Zouni is kind of it. We put rice cakes in the dish. Much stuff is put in it so Zouni is very good for our health. We can put anything we want so stuffs are different from each home. I'll tell you typical stuffs. Those are spinach, fowl, radish and honewort etc. We can't forget rice cakes because this is a main stuff of Zouni.

New Year's Day

steak of yam


Today, I want to tell you a food that I love it!!★ It's steak of yam.
I have no idea how to make it, but it's very very good so I often order it.
This menu is at Izakaya called "Wan" I use that Izakaya every week. Do you know any idea how to make it?? Yam, laver, leek and sesame are on the lettuce. It's hard to say a taste of it so if you are in Japan or have a plan to visit Japan, please go to Wan and try it! Maybe your taste and mine are different but it’s very delicious to me.

kettle rice


Last night I ate kettle rice. Mine was sukiyaki kettle rice. Rice and sukiyaki were on the rice and put into the kettle. Sukiyaki above the rice was very delicious. Do you know sukiyaki? That's kind of stew food. Beef, onion, egg were stew with strong soup. Rice was seasoned with sukiyaki soup too so it's very good!! Above the rice, sukiyaki and some stuff were put. We can put anything when we make it but I went Izakaya so it's already made it. That's was carrot, burdock and sesame. Carrot and burdock were boiled so it's soft. I really like it!!

buckwheat of shrimp tempura


Last night, I ate buckwheat. Last night was very cold so I wanted to eat hot supper. This was very simple. Big shrimp tempura was into the buckwheat. We boil buckwheat and put it into soup. Then put leek, wakame(soft seaweed),tempura, and anything we want. Not only tempura but also we can put relish, egg and anything that taste good. This was very good but a little thick so I pour water to it. Buckwheat is plain food and easy to cook so Japanese often eat this. We also eat this when a year change I mean from December 31st to January 1st. We call this habit '' Toshikosisoba''.

Bimbimbap


This is bimbimbap. Rice is covered by ingredient like hot sauce and sesame oil. We have many kinds of bimbimbap but this is broiled meat bimbimbap. Above the rice, broiled meat, kidney beans, beansprout, radish and a raw egg are put. Seasonings are sesame oil, soy sauce, solt and anything you want. I like hot food so I usually use hot sauce. Using spoon and scramble all of them in the stone pot and eat. Below the stone pot, rice is burned because container is very hot. Burned rice is very good! Not only me but also many Japanese like this. A little bit hard and tasty.

Hi!!

This is my first time.
I made my blog and write about Japanese bar what we call Izakaya.
Foods of Izakaya are very tasty!
There are lots of kinds of foods and drinks so we can enjoy there!
And Izakaya is cheeper than resutaurant like Italian and French. That's why we, Japanese often use this place and have a very nice time with my friends, my partner and my families.
Izakaya is like casual restaurant.
In this blog, I'll show you the foods of Izakaya and write my comments about it.
