Oatmeal Omurice (Recipe) | Japanese Cooking Video

2023-01-10T14:52:00.003+09:00

Omurice is a very popular home cooked meal in Japan. It is a chicken fried rice wrapped with a thin sheet of crepe-like fried egg. In this recipe I substituted rice with oatmeal. The result is very satisfying. Enjoy!

Oatmeal Omurice

The oatmeal I picked at the grocery store was "Multi Oatmeal". Which can be used for both hot and cold oatmeal. Please make sure what kind of oatmeal you have, and the way you turn it into rice substitute.

Catch Fish and Eat Challenge 海上釣り堀太公望 | Japanese Cooking Video Recipe

2022-09-24T17:15:00.005+09:00

Taikoubou is located in Atami-city, 10 minutes walk from Ajiro station. It is a marine fish pond where you can catch fish and eat there. You can choose how you would like the fish to be cooked: Sashimi, Grilled/Broiled, Simmered, or Deep-Fried.

We caught 3 Sea Breams and 6 Japanese Horse Mackerels.

Unfortunately the restaurant was very crowded and we had to wait over 2 hours... so we decided to send the fish home (my mom's house). I asked her to cook it on the next day.

How we whole grill the fish at home in Japan is HERE FYI: https://createeathappy.blogspot.com/2008/08/yakizakana-grilled-fish.html

Quick Sunomono (Japanese Cucumber Salad Recipe)

Difficulty: Very Easy

Time: 5min

Number of servings: 2

Ingredients:

1 Japanese cucumber (fresh one is better)

1 tbsp. Mild Vinegar with Dashi

1 tbsp. Mizkan Shiro Dashi Sauce Professional Taste

a dash of sesame oil

toasted white sesame seeds

Directions:

1. Rub cucumber with salt and wash with water to smooth out the prickly surface of fresh cucumber. Simply washing is OK.

2. Cut cucumber into thick slices and add 1 tbsp. Mild Vinegar with Dashi and 1 tbsp. Mizkan Shiro Dashi Sauce Professional Taste, and a dash of sesame oil. You can serve it immediately, but I always leave overnight till the cucumber slices absorb the flavor.

3. Sprinkle with toasted white sesame seeds to finish.

Catch Fish and Eat Challenge 海上釣り堀 太公望 | Japanese Cooking Video Recipe

Taikoubou is located in Atami-city, 10 minutes walk from Ajiro station. It is a marine fish pond where you can catch fish and eat there. You can choose how you would like the fish to be cooked: Sashimi, Grilled/Broiled, Simmered, or Deep-Fried.

We caught 3 Sea Breams and 6 Japanese Horse Mackerels.

Unfortunately the restaurant was very crowded and we had to wait over 2 hours... so we decided to send the fish home (my mom's house). I asked her to cook it on the next day.

How we whole grill the fish at home in Japan is HERE FYI: https://createeathappy.blogspot.com/2008/08/yakizakana-grilled-fish.html
