Something that I found interesting when talking with my mother recently was that I was a picky child when I was young until we moved to a very rural area and started spending my entire day running around in the woods like a feral gremlin. I'd come home for dinner and be willing to eat absolutely ANYTHING lol
My kids have been jokingly (but persistently!) complaining that I’ve been cooking too many Southeast Asian dishes lately, and they’ve specifically requested that I start making more Japanese and Korean food for a change. After watching this video, I’m actually considering it! The portion sizes are smaller, and the dishes seem lighter and healthier, which might just help us shed some of that "American fat" we’ve been carrying around. It seems like a great way to mix things up and explore new flavors while also making healthier choices for the family. Thanks for sharing and great job!
I love seeing your tableware samples and am anxiously awaiting your launch. All the things you showed were lovely and I would certainly put them to good use. This good quality, beautiful artisanal japanese tableware will compliment your tasty recipes. How satisfying that your boys liked your meal too! :)
I wish I had known that a good rice cooker was as functional as an Instapot for a small family and could have saved money and space storage. I will try this it looks wonderful I could almost smell it!
@@MiwasJapaneseCooking Instant Pot can be quite large, but there is a smaller model that will do for small families. It's not unusual for me to use the IP and rice cooker at the same time. Single lady here - I'm all about the cook once and eat for three days LOL
Hi Miwa, Thanks for sharing some of your favorite tableware pics. What a fun process to receive all the samples and curate a collection of your own ! The items you selected are unique and not something people outside of Japan have access to. I love them all for different reasons. The Urushinori bowls in black and red. Classic, yet updated with a contemporary flower motif. The simple white side dish has a perfect balance because the edges are just the right thickness. The summer rice bowl is cool and refreshing to look at. It would coordinate well with the blue & white Japanese designs that people already own. And last the useful oval plate with beautiful earthy tones and textures. I would use it for a main & salad or curry.
So happy to hear this! Because I'm correcting all of them from scratch, feel free to leave a request for future collection! I love to build this project with you😊✨❤️
I always love rice cooker recipes because they safe me so much time. The tablewear looks great!!! Also really love the knife, especially since it is from a company in your area :)
I have a very simple rice cooker, my grandmother bought me when I moved out to live on my own, about 19 years ago. The knob on the lid broke but otherwise it's still going. A precious thing since my grandmother passed away 15 years ago. It only has a cook and keep warm function but it works :) Though I love making like main dish meals in the rice cooker and everyone eats is (as long it's no seafood for my husband), my daughter loves the easy rice dishes the most. I think edamame and peas rice are her favourite. Add a teriyaki/yakitori style dish (either, chicken of with tofu) and she loves the meal. For those loving a bit more spice you can add more spicy peppers instead of (part of the) bell pepper, like substitute with anaheim peppers or partly add spice peppers. Or I would use shishito peppers if my harvest this summer will go alright. I like the simple dishes for my table as well, as it's easier to combine that way but still keep the seasonal element. One of the things i would love to add to my table wear is some edo kiriko dishes. a simple bowl or glass for the three of use.
Your grandmother would be so happy that she's still taking care of you. It's like hugs from heaven. If or when you need to upgrade she will be with you blessing your choice of cooker. May she rest well and always watch over her loved ones. 💝💝💝
Hi Miwa, I just got a new Zojirushi rice cooker. I'll definitely try these recipes! I love your traditional dishes. Thanks so much ❤ Cheers, Suzanne. NOTE: Thanks for showing the cooking time for your rice pot recipes. It would also be helpful (for those of us that can't read the Japanes writing on your cooker) if you could tell us which rice, or cooking, setting you're using.
Hello. Can you please help? I have a Zojitushi rice cooker. Is Takikomu Mode similar to a mixed rice setting? also, what setting did you cook the cake on?
I think for the Instant Pot, just using the "rice" setting for takikomi mode would work for this, assuming you're using sushi rice, not brown rice, and you're not using anything that would take a super long time to cook. 🙂
I'm definitely going to try this. I think it would be great for breakfast, and have leftovers for a couple of days. 🙂 I make my own stock so I'll use that as the liquid, instead of water and the stock powder. Because of your Miwa's influence, I also made several small pots of different kinds of soup, and froze them in one-cup sizes, so I can just heat them and not have to make a new pot of soup for with breakfast. 😍
@@MiwasJapaneseCooking Haha not really but I'm getting better. There was just a cold, rainy day that made me want to make soup, so I went a bit crazy LOL.
The flavor is great so I must have made a mistake that made my normally great rice mushy. If any one on here knows where I went wrong, please help. Thank you
I apologize if you are ESL but your thumbnail should be "Rice cooker recipes that ARE awesome." Since you are referring to more than one recipe, you need the plural verb form.
@@DorothyMcDaniel-ch2ol Of course you understood what she meant. So did I. The point is, good grammar sends a message to the reader that your words can be trusted. Poor grammar makes you look careless and possibly uninformed.
Kamakura crockery and vases are the most beautiful. My parents purchased one in 1962-it was magnificent in red and black. Unforgettable!

Thank you for helping me, I’ve just started learning Japanese cooking from scratch. Will make my first dashi tomorrow 😊

To me her rice cooker is quite big because she can choose options.

As someone who loves japanese tablewear and *needs* more of it. I look forward to your launch as i really want to get my hands on them 😍❤

I love this idea!! I can’t wait to try it. I like how easy it is. If you have more rice cooker recipes please share 😊
I will experiment more! Thank you☺️✨
This a good idea too. I’m going to let my daughter cook this in instant pot. Perfect for hot summer days. Thank you ❤❤

How do u cook this in a regular older rice cooker with only cook/keep warm setting?
Can't wait to try the rice and seafood recipe. Thank you!
Thank you✨🥰

@@MiwasJapaneseCooking I ALWAYS enjoy your delicious food!!
Great cooking ideas and the bowls are very nice looking

Great demonstration video!! I would love to watch the meal prep side dish by your mum next time. ❤
Konnichiwa miss, love all of your recipes and they look so good to eat!
Arigato! Thank you!
I just subscribed your channel. Thanks for sharing your rice recipe 😋
I love the more natural looking table wear. I was just searching to see how long brown lentils take in my rice cooker.
Very helpful, thank you!
I particularly like the bowl for rice.
Yey😍I'm so glad to hear this✨✨
Looks delicious!
Thank you🥰🙏
I love Tomato juice as well. I can't often finish a bottle either, but you should be able to freeze the extra for future use.😺🍅
I will try that! Thank you🥰
Thanks, I love your videos
Thank you for your kind words!
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸 food looks delicious. Nice video. 🌷🌷
Hi Miwa, where can i get that soup base powder from? I live in Tokyo by the way. Thanks
What mode did u use to bake/steam the cake? Is it auto cook or does it need any timing?
auto cook! just the same as how I cook regular rice🧑🍳😊
I think for the Instant Pot, just using the "rice" setting for takikomi mode would work for this, assuming you're using sushi rice, not brown rice, and you're not using anything that would take a super long time to cook. 🙂
I don't have Instant pot, so good to know the name of setting!
What is some advice for someone looking to move to japan?
Hi I have one question how much rice do you would make for 1 person?
I will use 1cup of rice. but I recommend to make a larger batch and freeze it☺️🙆
I'm definitely going to try this. I think it would be great for breakfast, and have leftovers for a couple of days. 🙂 I make my own stock so I'll use that as the liquid, instead of water and the stock powder.

Wow!! your kitchen is so organized! Thank you for sharing!
@@MiwasJapaneseCooking Haha not really but I'm getting better. There was just a cold, rainy day that made me want to make soup, so I went a bit crazy LOL.
What type of rice did you use for this recipe?
First like n comment from India
Thank you😍🙏
The flavor is great so I must have made a mistake that made my normally great rice mushy. If any one on here knows where I went wrong, please help. Thank you
Sorry for the late reply💦Vegetable contains moisture, so it will seep out as it's cooked. Next time you make, use less water☺️All about experiment🧑🍳💪
I add egg it’s like fried rice
Hope my channel grows like yours have! I Just started not too long ago. Keep up the great content
Good luck🙆You are unique and precious!
Lovely cocking video I enjoyed watching it very much thx u 💨🦅🤗😄👋👍😃🙏🤗
Thank you Steve!! 😊
Blog Address ?
No. Actually I make rice the old fashioned way. In a large pot with a little water and carefully watch it! 😉
I often do it too! Someh taste even better🙆✨✨
Our kids din't like mushrooms, so we got rid of them.
The mushrooms?
No, the kids.
It looked the rice was burnt in the rice cooker. Is that ok?
Yes, crispy rice is delicious 😋😋😋
She’s so cute
Thank you so much! You are so kind!
@@MiwasJapaneseCooking anytime 🥰😍
Hi, I am from INDIA, you are very beautiful... How to maintain face glowing.
Tips please
Big sales job here, moving on.
It's a fake ricecooker. No blingbling sound :P
Would never make the miso soup, not traditional,

Regardless, it is pretty clear what she meant to say - even if it wasn’t grammatically correct.
@@daisy8297 I am a Language Arts teacher in a public school. Grammar matters.
Really?! This is not English class. I understood exactly what she meant.
