Our latest cooking demo featured two beloved Japanese recipes: Nasu no Nibitashi and Somen with Mentsuyu. Together they showcase the refreshing flavors of Japanese summer cooking through chilled noodles, savory dashi, and tender eggplant.

Our latest cooking demo featured Miso-Sesame Chicken & Spring Vegetables Rice Donabe, a fresh and balanced dish that highlights Japanese recipes through seasonal vegetables, miso-marinated chicken, and donabe-cooked rice infused with umami-rich broth.

These Japanese recipes from our latest cooking demonstration highlight the versatility of donabe cooking—from savory vegetable rice layered with umami to bright yuzu ponzu salmon gently steamed with mushrooms. Simple techniques, balanced flavors, and clay pot cooking come together in two approachable and refined dishes.

This Japanese recipes favorite, Spicy Yuzu Kosho Chicken Nabe, layers umami-rich broth, tender chicken, mushrooms, and fresh vegetables for a perfectly balanced donabe. Finished with citrus and gentle heat, it’s a comforting yet vibrant dish that highlights the harmony of Japanese cooking.

Golden Curry Chicken Nabe combines the rich comfort of Japanese curry with the communal experience of donabe cooking. Built in layers—from sautéed roux and chicken to a dashi-based broth balanced with sake, mirin, and soy—this dish delivers depth, warmth, and approachability. Finished with udon and seasonal vegetables, it’s a perfect example of Japanese recipes designed for sharing.

Our latest cooking demo featured Tsukune Miso Nabe, a comforting donabe hot pot inspired by Japanese recipes centered on balance, umami, and shared dining. Tender chicken meatballs simmer gently in miso dashi with tofu and seasonal vegetables.

Our October 22nd private cooking demo for the Sunshine Sisters featured a comforting bowl of Salmon Chowder w/ Miso & Oat Milk — a modern twist on Japanese recipes blending miso’s savory depth with the creaminess of oat milk. Balanced with salmon, vegetables, and gentle umami, it captured the warmth of autumn in every bowl.

Our October 11th demo featured a two-part donabe experience — Ishikari Nabe, a salmon hot pot from Hokkaido simmered in miso-butter broth, followed by Ojiya, a soothing rice porridge created from its remaining broth. Together, they captured the spirit of Japanese recipes: simple, nourishing, and beautifully complete.
