love your recipes. though i haven’t tried them yet but they seems easy and quick. especially because i’m a fan of japanese cuisines. but the thing is, i’m not a japanese, and i found out there’s a lot of spices with japanese’ name in your recipes. Like hon-dashi in this recipe, or mirin, and many others. I don’t even sure where can i get those japanese stuffs in my country. So, is it okay if i substitues hon-dashi with other meat stock powder (like chicken)? and what is dashi (I found this a lot in other recipes)? is mirin some kind of japanese sugar?
sorry with my long questions and thanks :)
Fabulously quick and yummy, I’m always busy and running around, so I need to something quick and nourishing! I didn’t use dashi, though, but used sencha tea instead, also, I added an Ume plum to the rice. Delish!Thanks!
I love your site…will surely try a few recipes, though I am a vegetarian, you have a wide choice for me too! Love the fact that they are simple to make and quick! Thanks!
