I actually loved your "failed" tofu. It looks rustic and delicious. Very authentic. Not at all unappetizing. Food is supposed to be real, like you and your family in the videos. I love your cooking bloopers and your positive, cheerful personality. Thank you for all the work you do and for raising another generation of healthy and sound people. ❤
I LOVE umeboshi, but I'm the only one who eats them, so I didn't buy them often. Then I found out they last a REALLY long time in the refrigerator, so now I have some!! 😍
Great!! Yes, it's a preservative food. Here is my other favorite recipe using umeboshi. I Hope you will enjoy it! www.shinagawa-japanese-cooking.com/post/simmered-mushrooms-with-pickled-plum-sauce
Looks yummy! Suggestion: after slicing tofu, place the slices on a clean tea towel, then fold the towel and gently press most of the water out. Dry the tofu out even more by sprinkling on a good shake of onion powder, nutritional yeast, or cornstarch (or all three) before frying.
Thank you! I look forward to try this. I laughed along with you during your tofu disaster. It happens even to the best of us and I appreciate your authenticity ❤
Hi Miwa, thank you so much for this amazing and fast recipe. i have been repeating it 3x per week, my all time fav 😊. i am so addicted with the simple carrot almond salad. i sometimes substitude it with roasted peanuts or cashewnuts, when i m running out of almonds. Thanks for all the amazing recipe,espeically the vegan and vegetarian, which i have been trying it. Keep up the amazing work and have a wonderful weekend :) ♥♥🌞🌻😎
Another great dish idea for my bento - spicy edamame! I've tried the original teriyaki tofu recipe, which is really good hot or cold. I've also had the carrot salad which is very simple and delicious - another great dish I can make using the meal prep method we just learned at the recent Cooking Session at the Ikigai Cooking Club. 🥰
Please give it a try just one recipe!! It should not be too overwhelming^^ Here are the recipes . Good luck Jennifer! www.shinagawa-japanese-cooking.com/blog
It is hard for me to find extra-firm tofu as well even in Asian grocery stores! It’s mainly just common in America but I use firm tofu and press it for 30mins with two plates and all the water drains out so the sauce can marinate well~~I recently also baked firm tofu with soy sauce and sesame oil it turned out amazing and super crunchy!
Hi Miwa , you always come up with interesting recipes . i really like the carrot salad , the terryaki tofu as well and the edamame too . they all simple and easy to make recipes !
Thank you for showing vegan options. I purchased your box on Kokoro website and fell in love with the natto koji paste, I love that esp. on rice. I have learned so much from watching your channel, you have opened up a whole new way of eating for me, and I feel so much better, from what I have learned thru your channel about Japanese culture and cuisine. 💚
Hi now today I watch second videos of your TH-cam videos I lovevit, I love good food. You awesome. Thank you for all videos you going to but on the TH-cam 😊😉🙃🙂🙃🙃
Simply pack everything in the bento like a tight jigsaw puzzle hahaha best way I can descripe it :) One favourite here is cabbage with a dressing of umeboshi. I make it by mincing umeboshi and mix with mayo but that is not vegan. Of course you can use vegan mayo, but perhaps some oil and tofu mixed with the ume works as well as vegan option (or just ume and oil). It's great in summer but I like it whole year round. You can blanch teh cabbage but I use it raw. None stick works a lot better with tofu :) With firm tofu I always make my own ganmodoki, that way you can also make sure it is vegan. I like to add carrots, green beans, shiitake (dried ones that soaked or shitake tsukudani) and season with either shiitake/mushroom powder or powdered kombu dashi. It is also great to add some soaked and chopped kombu here. You can use the kombu from making dashi for soup. Or make kombu no tsukudani. That is so good with rice! But the veggie dish I always come back to is gobo kinpira ^.^ Seeing all these side dishes makes me really excited to come back to Tokyo! I'll finally be back this summer.
ohhh jigsaw puzzle!! That's brilliant idea to describe!! Thank you Tamara! I love mayo and umeboshi too!!!! My mum used to make pasta salad with shiso, tuna, umeboshi and mayo. it was gooood! Thank you so much for all of your creative ideas! Woohoo! You are coming!! I'm so excited for you too!!!
It's been suggested, instead of pressing tofu, microwave it. It helps evaporate tofu moisture, make it slightly firmer, and prevents the demolition of the tofu structure. :D
You’re so creative with vegan recipes🥬🥒🍠 Miwa~San🌸do you know about Kimono mom(Moe) she is Japanese and lives in Tokyo too! She does Japanese home cooking videos on TH-cam, it would be so cool if you guys collaborated you’re my two favorite TH-camrs! I will definitely try this bento too🤍ありがとう ございます🤍
Yes I know her! Her videos are soooo cute! I would love to but I feel like she is too big to collaborate for me... haha I'm cringing! but It would be nice if I could collaborate with other foodies in Japan!

That looks amazing, Miwa-Sensei! I'll have to try it soon! xxoo
Love these side dish ideas!
Thank you Regan😊I love how easy it is!🥰
Thank you Miwa for another great recepy. Where did you get the trys from you used to press tofu? Thank you
Thank you for the simple and yummy looking recipes! If I don’t have a microwave, what is the best alternative for reheating the tofu?
You can pan fry it with a splash of water. then close to steam it. I found it's easy to get burnt^^
Luv ur vegan recipes
