Japanese Food Discussion
I'm suddenly craving onigiris (riceballs) right now. This usually happens each time I watch an episode of any Japanese drama.
It's 4:30 in the morning where I'm at and I've tried falling asleep, but visions of onigiris keep popping into my head.
I'm definitely going to JAS Mart tomorrow to buy some pre-packaged onigiris before my afternoon classes.
either that, or I'm going to try to make home-made ones as a first attempt. I found some really simple recipes online. If I do end up making my own, I'll tell you all how it went.
What are you craving at this moment?
*strictly food, please *

Well, Japanese food is very healthy to begin with, and with a diet of 50% on seafood(which tends to be more healthy than your average beef or even chicken), its no wonder there's not many fat Japanese people, or Asian people in general(except in those "heavily westernized" areas where they all eat fast food).Lime-kun wrote:With Japanese food being so awesome, it's a marvel you don't see more overweight Japanese people
Yeah, I'm crazy for teriyaki sauce in general. Anything teriyaki-fied will get my attention immediately.
Just go in any American resturant in the States and you will know what I'm talking about, the individual portions are usually double(or more) what I can actually eat. So I ALWAYS bring home a doggie bag for the few times I goto American restuarants.
Just read this article if you're not sure what I'm talking about:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20051025/lf ... 1025041538
So, many one of the top killers in the western world is due to diet.
I guess living in Japan for a such a long time most of the time when I crave a food it's not Japanese food. Decent Mexican food or something like that usually is what I want.
If I am outside of Japan I don't bother eating Japanese food in other places, it's usually pretty bad.
I live near the area probably most famous for takoyaki and okonomiyaki.

that is pretty weird. Must be watching too many drama with those foods I guess hehe.theedqueen wrote:I crave takoyaki, onigri, and okonomiyaki. Thing is, I've never eaten them before....does that make me weird? xD And you'd think that finally living in Los Angeles I would've had some by now. *shrugs*

Actually there's a few more, one in futsukaichi and another in kurume...but in FUkuoka, SAIKOU! get some gyoza with the tonkotsu ramen and if you eat there before 2pm you get all you can eat rice! OHHHH GOD MEMORIES!!!!!!!!!sk wrote:I really really really want a bowl of Ramen form Ippudou in Fukuoka... yum
I will eat onigiri anytime of the day.
I want to go to Japan and just.. EAT! :p the food there is SOOOOO GOOD
oh! Some Fugu nabe and Yaki-Kuri sound really really really good too. *Drool*
MOS Burger = super tiny deluxe burger franchise in Japan. Really tasty actually but too expensive in my opinion

@sadotsu, gomene~ If it's allowed, maybe I can ship over some pre-packaged onigiris to you over at New Zealand.
Thank's I got stuck halfway to Tokyo (almost exactly halfway from New York east bound). It's good to be back in here and take some time out from the nuts on the outside here.lilswtangel wrote: and again I welcome you back Techie. i really missed your funny jokes around here~!!!

Luckily the Asian community here is huge and I eat hardly anything but Kimchie, anything Japanese and loads of Char Siu Chow Mein. In fact I haven't used a knife and fork for the past two months I think. They tried giving me a spoon at the local takeout today and I just looked at them like "whats this...?"
Occasionally I run over to my neighbor restaurant and get some good thai food too but their to expensive.
In fact everything is expensive here on takeouts.
Char siu chow mein is like $9, a standard bento is about $20-$24 and the same for Korean cuisine. The Thai are just in between the Chinese and Japanese prices.
Another guy I met here used to live in Tokyo for four years and he is now working with sales for a Japanese food supplier to all the local restaurants.
Mo's Burger is awesome. It's just a fast food hamburger chain, but something about how they make the burgers is really tasty. I wish we had them here. :/ I guess the good news is that I will probably go to Tokyo next year and I certainly plan on stopping at Mo's Burger.lilswtangel wrote:what's a MOS BURGER??!!CrAcKaJaP206 wrote:I don't really crave onigiri's considering i've been eating them my whole life.
What I crave is yakiniku, gyudon, yakitori, and of course MOS BURGER!
I can't help but think MOOSE BURGER.........and I'm sure I'm totally off-based here.
Other than that I'm a ramen junkie. Last time I was in Japan I went to the Ramen Museum in Shin-Yokohama and also in Fukuoka. It's so good!
I'm eating Taiyaki right now. ^^ No original Japanese Taiyaki but a self-made one but it's still good.
The Japanese dish I crave for most often is probably Ramen, but I occasionally I really wish they'd have the Teriyaki Burger at our Mc Donald's, too.
Oh, theedqueen, I know so well what you mean. Ever since I saw the Hana yori Dango anime I've been craving for "Nikkoro Gashi" although I never actually tried them. I watched pictures of Nikkoro Gashi that I found on google though. A Japanese friend of mine also gave me a good recipe but I've been too stressed out with school lately, so I don't have much time to cook.

Hmm... I forgot about Tempura. l love it. Not only fried vegetables but also fried fish and chicken (Karaage) is heavenly. I used to love Tonkatsu, too. (Cannot eat meat lately though.) Miso shiru is great but not much of a dish. Hmm... One thing I really love is Tamago yaki. Okaa-san, my host mother, used to make it every day. So so good...
I also like Okonomiyaki but only my own. The one I tried in Osaka was... bleh!
And the takoyaki I tried at my host family's house almost made me puke all over the table. I had a hard time holding it back. >_<

Sure but there's lots of them that I don't know what to choose, so preferably a nice japanese recipe would be much better!! I guess that I have to move to Japan to eat those things LOL..

miso soup: hot water + miso paste + tofu + wakame + green onion...
there is a special fish base that your suppose to add also.

You can't be serious. Didn't you ever notice they actually prepare the soups right in front of your nose? Why didn't you just ask them to leave out the meat for you?n30hybr1d wrote:When I when in Japan I couldn't find a place that served vegetarian ramen
I don't know which specific nabe it was. I only remember a soup with lots of vegetables in it. I don't think I ever tried Oden. I checked on it on the internet just to be sure and it says it has fishcakes in it. I think I'd remember having eaten fishcakes, so count that out.duffojosh wrote: [yeah oden is the best, what type of nabe dish do you like?
I just remembered (while I was looking for a picture that shows Oden) that my host family once treated me to Domburi with Gyuudon on it (I think). Yuck, that was awful. I took like 3 or 4 bites of the way too fatty meat and I was full already. My poor host family finished their Domburi pots so quickly, they had to wait for me for like 15 or 20 minutes, and I didn't even manage to eat the half of it! Who can eat that much (fatty) meat and rice anyway? x_x
*craving for mochi at the moment* That very sticky sort of mochi made of mashed-rice and anko filling. I was always wondering if they are called "Manju". Some describe "Manju" as this and I also bought a box of manju in Kyoto which were exactly like that. But then again they once ate manju in Ranma ½ and it was nothing but plain brown cream. More like anko actually. Anyone knows the difference?
Gah! No, you do not want to eat natto!!mallepa wrote:I wanna eat natto, I've never tasted it before ^^;;
To make natto:
Boil some beans until they are soft. Put the OPEN pot with the beans somewhere where it will stay around body temperature. Wait three days, and if you can stand to look at it, go ahead and TRY to eat it!!
When we were in Japan our friend (trying to be funny) said that if you want to be Japanese, you must eat natto! Two of her three kids left the table immediately...
I think natto tastes like beer...
What I crave the most is ramen, but I love and always make shabu shabu, especially in the winter. My ultimate favorites , though, are uni and hamachi sashimi.
Onigiri is super easy to make, all you do is open a can of tuna, add a lil Japanese mayo and salt, and put it in the middle of rice, squish the rice into a ball, and wrap a piece of seaweed around it. Or you can pan fry some salmon, sprinkle with salt, do same thing with rice and make salmon onigiri. How hard is that?

Pretty difficult to find vegetarian Ramen in Japan. Have you seen how they make the broth? It's 100% meatsoup. If you eat ramen quite often you'll see them try to get the meat out of the soup to slice it into pieces and then serve it to the customers. The soup itself is almost the most important part of a good ramen.n30hybr1d wrote:When I when in Japan I couldn't find a place that served vegetarian ramen
I love onigiri and furikake.
I miss Japanese food really a lot. Can't make it myself, although we tried to make okonomiaky once and we succeded quite well.
What I miss most is ramen, then I think tempura, but shabu shabu is very nice too with many people. Nomi hodai with food is also very nice. Every time I was suprised how many different things they can serve in two hours time.

Japanese restaurants are good places to hang out, because the food is good and the atmosphere is cool and relaxed. More and more people are becoming fans of Japanese food, because it is also very healthy, making them look and Japanese recipes. Japanese food recipe that is easy to follow. There are a lot of food using the teriyaki sauce, and it is certainly a great addition to meat, where the taste is spicy and sweet. ,

The top foods I crave when watching JDramas are takoyaki, karaage chicken, korokke, omurice, and those large rolled crepes with fruit and whipped cream, ice cream, chocolate drizzles, and whatever they put in those things. Oh yes, and cream puffs or any of those fancy cake things they show from their pastry counters They do so many dramas with yummy cake!

Oh yeah, @Kathleen, the mochi you describe sounds like daifuku. I love daifuku but I crave ohagi because the ones I got at the store seemed sweeter. I love mochi icecream too. But after reading these entries I think I'll go make a pot of chicken curry rice, yum. Sometimes I crave takikomi gohan and chikuzen ni as well. I don't see how those Japanese ladies stay so thin amidst all that wonderful food. One of my favorites is kimpira gobo, but it's a pain to make, julienne gobo is a mindless activity yet you have to be so careful not to cut yourself.

I love natto! But, the food I hate is shiokara. I think it has a disgusting flavor.
さあ、今食べたい食べ物はどちかな。外に寒いだから、カツカレーは美味しそうだと思う。
So, I wonder which food I would want to eat now? It's cold outside, so I think katsu-curry sounds delicious!

I didn't know what shiokara was so I had to look it up
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiokara
Do they really eat it like that or do they mix it in with cooking food like fish sauce or oyster sauce? I could see using it as a seasoning or something. But the description doesn't sound very nice.

I tried natto handroll sushi, it was pretty good. But when I bought some natto and ate it with rice it didn't float my boat, I wonder if people add something to it.
Did you try eating the natto with soy sauce and mustard? Really, it is delicious.
でも、普通の醤油じゃないと思います。ちょっと甘いソースです。そばつゆかな。
But, it isn't a normal soy sauce, It is a slightly sweet sauce. I wonder if it is soba dipping sauce.

The natto came in a frozen pkg with some mustard and sauce, but the taste was lacking something. Maybe it was too pre-packaged. Maybe it wasn't from soybeans, in the picture the beans are so huge, the one I ate had small beans the size of blackbeans. I hear green onions go well, maybe I'll try it with that. I saw it on Galileo and thought it wouldn't be so bad to try. But they seemed to eat it with a lot more gusto than I felt.

Waaaahoooo! My Japanese friend just showed me how to make delish chicken karaage:
1 pkg boneless chicken thighs, cut up to nugget size (they say the skin on is more delicious)
marinate 1-2 hrs in:
1/3 c shoyu
1/3 c sake
1 tsp garlic powder
2" knob of fresh ginger, grated
grated zest and juice of one lemon
Heat an inch of oil (enough to cover nuggets) to 375 degrees, meanwhile roll the marinated nuggets in potato starch, pressing it in with your fingers so it's well coated, fry while turning several times until chicken is well done and crispy. It won't be golden brown but will have some carmelized bits on each side and start turning darkish. Place finished chicken on rack to drain oil, sprinkle salt and serve with wedges of fresh lemon. Goes well with a mound of fresh cabbage slaw and rice, according to her. Great as bento the next day. Yummy!

OMG, someone just showed me how to make onigiri last month, I've practically eaten nothing but riceballs ever since, I use Tamanishiki rice for onigiri, or Kokuho, rinse and soak for half an hour, make in a rice cooker and leave the lid on at least 15 minutes after it clicks off. Meanwhile, take a couple sheets of nori seaweed and over a hot stove burner lightly run it over the flame or burner on both sides to slightly roast it. Take scissors and cut the roasted nori into strips and set aside. In a separate bowl have water handy and a salt shaker too. I also like shiso Furikake sprinkles. With a rice paddle, put a quantity of the cooked rice into a separate bowl and paddle it a bit to break up clumping, sprinkle some furikake at this point and incorporate it if you like. Have a big plate handy to put finished rice balls onto. Wait until the rice is cool enough to handle. Wet your hands (like, really wet, run them under the faucet), sprinkle your palms with a bit of salt and paddle a mound of rice into your hands and start forming the rice ball. If your hands aren't wet the rice will stick like crazy. Form triangles or round or whatever, but use only enough pressure to make the form, not smash the rice. At this point I also would have handy a small bowl of takuan pieces or umeboshi, or tuna (equal parts tuna, mayo, sprinkle some salt and pepper - for a really authentic taste use Kewpie mayonnaise), poke a bit of which ever you like into the center of your riceball, wrap with a strip of the roasted nori, line them up on the plate. The person who showed me said it's good to use rice that you just made, but it's ok to use day old rice I guess, if you have to use it up. There are many other fillings too, I saw a lot on youtube. Good luck!
