I am pretty bad about linking to my Japan Times articles when they come out. I totally forgot to link to last month’s article, which is about lotus root, with an interesting historic recipe for karashi renkon (mustard-miso stuffed lotus root). It doesn’t age (the article that is), so I…
I have been translating a lot of Japanese books lately, such as the Asian Salads and Asian Noodles ones I mentioned previously. This is the latest one to come out, called The Real Japanese Izakaya Cookbook, by Wataru Yokota (Tuttle Publishing). I didn’t just translate it; I also wrote the…

It’s October, which means Oktoberfest! (At least, it was when we recorded this video – Oktoberfest actually started in late September, and ended two days ago!) Regardless of timing, Oktoberfest means beer… which seems a bit difficult to put in sushi. So we’re going with the next best thing –…

I wanted to mention a couple of books that I was involved in. The recipes are not Japanese (although one of them does have some Japanese flavored recipes) but they are by a well known Japanese cooking teacher and personality called Maki Watanabe, and are translated from Japanese. Both are…
BACON. There’s just something about that sizzle, so we brought you twelve whole minutes of it! I found this oddly relaxing – hopefully you all enjoy it too! Sub to my YouTube channel to get notified whenever we have new videos! Links in this post may be affiliate posts. If…
This spicy shrimp inari sushi is something I’ve posted before on the blog, over a decade ago. But it’s also something I make regularly in my everyday life – for New Year’s, for potlucks, even occasionally for dinner (because I almost always have inari age in my fridge!) It’s delicious,…
My latest Japan Times Japanese Kitchen article delves into the subject of chuuka (中華) cuisine, or Chinese-style Japanese food. As I explain in the article, just like yoshoku or yohshoku is European style food that’s been adapted and incorporated into everyday Japanese cuisine, chuuka is the same but with Chinese…

Today we’re throwing it waaaaay back, and making my favorite sushi roll ever – the bacon crunchy shrimp roll, which debuted on SushiDay almost exactly 12 years ago, all the way back in 2007! This is my favorite roll, my entire extended family’s favorite roll, and a must at our…
Even though we don’t play much anymore, Son and I have been WoW fans for years. He started playing in the beta 15 years ago, and I’ve played on and off with him in the years since. (I’d happily play more, but… responsibilities, bills, adulting… ?) I’ve cooked from the…

It’s county fair season! The LA County Fair starts this weekend, and I’m all about the fair food and summer street food right now. So what better way to get in the mood for a county fair than bacon-wrapped hot dogs? In sushi. As we do. It sounds weird, but…
