Categorised in: | Link of this article

Hiyashi Chuka (冷やし中華) is a popular Japanese cold noodle dish enjoyed during the summer. It consists of chilled Chinese-style noodles topped with various ingredients such as shredded egg crepe, ham, cucumber, and tomato. It is served with a tangy soy sauce-based dressing or sesame sauce. With its refreshing flavor, it is the perfect dish for hot weather. It is said to have originated in the early Showa period (1930s), created by a Chinese restaurant in Sendai as a noodle dish that could be enjoyed even in the heat of summer.

Weekend Vlog | Cooking with Kids, Family Outing & Toddler-Friendly Recipes | Japanese Mom Life

Join us for a cozy weekend in early autumn 2021! Our morning starts with a little chaos (thanks to our early-rising 2-year-old), but with a secret trick, we manage to enjoy a peaceful breakfast. We made one-plate meals with sandwiches—crusty bread for the grown-ups, soft bread for the kids. We also visited a baby & kids specialty store and took a walk to the local convenience store—see what we picked up!Later, I cooked crispy noodles (Sara Udon) with my son, and share a behind-the-scenes look at testing a kid-friendly curry roux recipe.

TV appearance : DayDay on NTV (Japan)

July 24, 2025

Categorised in: | Link of this article

Thanks to being featured in Airbnb’s newsletter, I was honored to have my cooking class featured on TV for the fourth time! This time, it was again on Nippon TV, during a weekday lifestyle program called DayDay.

The program featured our popular Ramen & Gyoza class for about two minutes. What left a strong impression on me was the guest’s deep respect for Japanese food culture. They said, “I felt that everything in Japan—its food and culture—is beautifully balanced and harmoniously connected.” Their words made me reflect once again on the unique harmony that defines Japan.

Our company is also called NAGOMI (和), which means “harmony” and represents Japanese culture and lifestyle, so their words resonated with me even more deeply.

BIG thank you to Joaquim & Rita (from Portugal) who kindly agreed to be interviewed, as well as to the filming crews and the program staffs!

Can’t eat this… but it’s still delicious to look at!
These are actually food sample magnets—super realistic and totally fun to collect.
I found these adorable ones during my walk through a Kappabashi kitchen street in Tokyo.
Which one would you choose for your fridge? Do you have some of them?

July 21, 2025

Categorised in: | Link of this article

Ever wondered how to make your own tea at home? Making sencha from scratch at home is a rewarding but delicate process. In Japan, sencha is made by steaming fresh tea leaves, then carefully rolling and drying them. Here’s a simplified method you can try at home if you have access to fresh tea leaves (like from a tea plant or garden).
