Mirin and sake definitely have a place in Japanese cooking, but please experiment however you wish to suit your tastes!

Hi Mai,
I noticed alot of your recipes contain mirin and sake, are these ingredients really essential or can I leave them out?
Thanks.

I’ve noticed that Japanese love cooking light… Not too bland and not too much of a flavor… I really appreciate Japanese cooking… I’ve been copying your recipes in my notepad… Thank you so much…

I really loved the cold soba so much… When I was abundant of packs of soba noodles, I’d eat 2 bundles at dinner! ♥

Right, the spices in this recipe, are they the same as the ready made soba sauce/soup that comes in cartons? ^.^

i belive that mom is going to kick me out of the house soon because i always mess up with her beloved kitchen while trying to make japeneese receipes which most of the times ends up with a complete catastrophy. I’m a bad chef :(

Hi Mai!
OMG. Gotcha!
Quite by accident, am so happy to have found your blog. Jap food is addicting I believe because of the freshness & good quality of ingredients being used and, 2ndly bec. of the sugar in most dishes, something that I’ve learned to put less of when I prepare them. Thanks for your excellent blog whose format is simple, orderly, user-friendly & offers substitutes for non-availability of ingredients. I had no problem w/ them though when I was a resident of Germany for a very long time bec. they were everywhere in Duesseldorf & now in Manila, they’re much easily available. My problem is identifying them esp/ if no English text exists. In this case your blog is very helpful.

Are you a Japanese national?

Again, many thanks.
Am beginning to be an addict also of your blog.
