It is said that the Japanese cuisine is one of the most healthy cuisine in the world.
And everybody knows about Sushi （寿司 or すし）nowadays. Sushi is so popular in the UK, isn't it?
And you can buy a sushi pack at the supermarket for your lunch or snack.
My friend Manu (Your Sushi in Bristol) and Kyoko teach how to make a proper sushi in many cities in the UK.
If you're interested in Your Sushi, go to www.yoursushi.co.uk/ . Find out more details.
How about Tofu and Miso (pic. top)? Many people know these products, maybe only the name?
OK, shall I explain how to cook Tofu and Miso?
I use both for making Miso shiru（Tofu miso soup/豆腐とワカメのみそ汁）
500ml water
2 - 3 tbsp Miso paste
cut wakame small quantity, the volume will be the double.
Tofu a half pack, 1cm cubed
- Pour the water into a pan and bring to the boil. - Add the wakame and tofu. Turn down the heat to low.
Simmer, but not too much.
- Add the miso paste, using a sieve and spatula.
Don't boil after miso has dissolved, otherwise the flavour will be spoiled.
(my measurement is always rough so checking the taste occasionally would be essential.)
You can put anything you want to for miso shiru.
Tofu and spinach, onion, leaks. etc., etc.,. Literally any veggies, even meat can be used. Miso paste always add the last and don't boil it.
Tofu is so good for your health. You can eat it row and just add the shoyu (soy sauce). I'll show you some variations of tofu cooking in the next issue.
This picture is a Sushi/Sashimi pack corner
in a ordinary supermarket in Japan.
Maybe 10 to 15 meters of its length?
All packs of sushi and Sashimi are
contained very very fresh row fish.
Including Gari-ginger and Wasabi inside a pack.
You also can buy some hot food in the other counter.
Just pop in the supermarket after your hectic work,
and get your supper for tonight.
