Your Grandma is such a sweetheart! Lovely to see the children actively participate in meal preparation and take an interest in cooking. I'm impressed that little Aiko already has a good palate and enjoys kamaboko. Soba is truly an ideal summer dish, especially for potlucks. ☀️ We've been experiencing triple digit temperatures in our area, so thank you for this timely episode...I'm all in favor for a cooling and fresh meal option that utilizes ingredients already in my fridge/pantry. Have a good weekend! ✨🌺✨
You guys have such an awesome family. I like the way everyone is so supportive of one another and everyone pitches in to help cook and teach the younger generation. I love when Laurie gives feedback on the dishes. Her descriptions are so detailed and she really takes her time to give us a good idea of the different flavors of the dish.
Thank you, kakelinga! It's super great having my nieces and nephews help out when they can. Hopefully they'll remember these special times. And yes. Laurie is super descriptive!
I am definitely going to try these recipes! When recipes comes from grandma’s stash, you treasure those recipes and know it will be good! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Gail This is your classmate Verna. I am going to try this recipe. Thanks for sharing your your generational recipe. You look great. I'm not really a cook but love to bake breads and cookies. Aloha Verna Eugenio
Thanks again for sharing. I grow up in the Big Island and it is so awesome for your mommy to share her upbringing and recipe Your hubby is so awesome supporting you with blogs and your ohana. I do enjoy all your blogs. Thanks.
Looks delish Cari san. I should make this for tomorrow's family BBQ. If I may say this, if you add just a little bit of oil, preferably olive oil, noodles will not stick together. Just a little tip.
I have been thinking of you and missed your videosl Imagine, you're super busy with the new baby or toddler.. I always look forward to all your local recipes.
Great meals for summer! I do make somen salad, but never did soba salad so will have to try your recipe. Love your family meals, Cari❣️ Thank you for sharing😋😍
Aloha Cari and Family! Another wonderful vlog. The food looked super ono, will definitely need to try making those at home. Always look forward to watching your vlogs (my Mom says "hello").

Just to clarify mom blanched carrots, the spinach and edamame went in raw?
Yes! Let me know how it tastes!
Cari you look so familiar. Are you related to the Takamine family?
Hm…. Not that I know of!
Yumm! Do you know how many teaspoons is in a packet of dashi?? I have a jar of it.
Hi Irene... I am not sure.... but I would just add as I go so you can get the flavor that you like.
So funny
Thank you, Arlene!
Just curious how to cook the noodles
Just a basic boil... somen noodles take a lot less time than regular noodles.
