heart 食べようね


You know what? I always eat this first everytime I eat a bento! My friend make fun off me because I call it "the Japanese omelette". I'm looking forward trying this recipe. whee

So, I would translate "Shoyu" with soy sauce (if you go to a Japanese supermarket, make sure to read "shoyu" on the sauce however! there are many sauces that look exactly the same >.<)

should we use sake for cooking or normal sake? which is better?

Also, I don't know what is "dashi" (i should be ashamed! after living here for over one month already!). I'll look it up on a dictionary.

Thank you heart

i think i am quite a good cook, sadly i cannot express all my recipes at english


crying you should try! I bet you know some typical recipe from the area you come from wink

fortunately in Paris, where I originally live, we have "Japan town". there are many Japanese stores and supermarket, so I can find most of the ingredients mentioned in this thread.
However it would be nice to provide a easy substitute to some hard-to-find ingredients (tip for the next recipe)

(i don't understand why, every time i want to type "recipe" i end up typing receipt xp )

You're lucky there's anything in your Japantown. When we went to San Fransisco there was almost nothing for Japantown. So we ended up going to Chinatown more which I think was the best place. I haven't checked for a Japantown in Chicago, but I don't think there is one. crying


In Canada, I know there are quite a few Japan towns. Try looking up on internet, maybe they are not in big cities! There should be some...

I love japanese food but I'm also a vegan, and since a lot of it contains fish and other things I can't eat, it's hard to find things that I can X_X but I love what I can eat ^_^

I've made this twice before, my brothers love it.
Though, it's a bit difficult for me to make it because I don't own a square pan (yet) and I have to be careful if I want it to keep a square shape.

Because of the recipe I have, I use mirin insted of sake. Is the difference very noticeable? From what I understand the two are similar in nature.
