4x1 - Rika's TOKYO CUISINE: Clam and Burdock Root Rice
April 3, 2015
Our theme of this episode is seafood. For our main dish, we'll be making asari littleneck clam rice. Littleneck clams are in season right now, so Rika will be introducing this original recipe inspired by Fukagawa-meshi, some of Tokyo's regional cooking.

Our main recipe in this episode is tofu hamburger steaks, a healthy variation on the Japanese western-style standard, made with tofu and low-fat ground chicken instead of beef or pork. By steam-frying these hamburger steaks in a frying pan, they'll come out nicely light and juicy, and the sauce we'll make for them with ponzu and grated daikon radish gives them a deliciously light, clean flavor. For our sides, we'll also be making pumpkin salad, sugar-glazed carrot and shiitake mushrooms, and sugar snap peas, making for a beautifully colorful spread perfect for spring.

This episode's theme is Japanese home cooking, bridging the gap between East and West. Our main dish this episode will be shrimp doria with fava beans. While doria looks like a dish originally from Western Europe, its roots actually trace back to a long-established hotel in the port city of Yokohama. Buttered rice, topped with seafood and white sauce, then covered in cheese and baked, is the usual simplified homemade style that Rika will be making her own variant on, using a microwave to make a simple white sauce and flavoring the buttered rice with soy sauce. As a side dish, Rika will be making a fresh mushroom and shungiku chrysanthemum leaf salad with a hint of sesame oil, and for dessert, we have pudding made with matcha green tea, well known even overseas nowadays.

We'll show you how to prepare Rika's own spicy variation, made by simmering chicken and onions in a sweet and spicy sauce. Add some beaten egg to bring it together and ladle it on top of rice for a bowl of happiness. We'll also be making a salad and a soup with chicken, culminating in a full course meal perfect for enjoying a variety of different textures, all from the same type of meat.
4x5 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: Golden-fried Scallops and Shrimps
May 8, 2015

Our chef will show off how to make the unique sauce with butter and soy sauce that coats the scallops and shrimp before they're fried to a golden finish. We'll also be making rapini flavored with mustard. The pungency of the mustard gives the rapini an addicting flavor.

This easy-to-make recipe provides a wonderfully complex blend of vegetable and meat flavors, making it the perfect dish to serve guests.

July 3, 2015
Our theme this episode is deep frying. We'll be making that Japanese favorite, tonkatsu pork cutlets, made with pork tenderloin - crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside. To get the perfect crispy crust, you have to fry them twice, and we'll teach you everything you need to know about how to do that. We'll also show you how to make our own original tonkatsu sauce recipe with dashi stock.

We'll introduce you to the traditions of this Japanese favorite, starting with the chef cutting up the eel while it's still alive, then putting the meat on skewers, dipping it in a soy sauce-based sauce, then grilling it until it's perfectly browned and delicious. On this episode, we'll be visiting a long-established unagi eel restaurant, where we'll learn about the impressively complex world of working with unagi eel, and we'll find out what their saying "three years for skewering, eight years for cutting up, and a lifetime for grilling" means. We'll also be taking a look at the secret techniques used to raise the perfect unagi eels for kabayaki.
4x13 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: Artisan edition in Shizuoka - Sakura Shrimp
August 14, 2015

We'll meet the third-generation chef of a seafood restaurant in Yui that boasts 65 years of history, and he'll show us a number of dishes made using these unique shrimp. In particular, we'll learn about sakura shrimp kaki-age, made with the lightest batter possible to give it a light, crisp crunch, while letting the sakura shrimp's natural sweetness and color shine through.
4x14 - Rika's TOKYO CUISINE: Rika's Okinawan Cuisine ～Okinawa Soba～
August 21, 2015
Our theme this episode is the home cooking of Japan's southernmost prefecture, Okinawa. Okinawa has its own unique food culture, as you might expect from islands so far south, and it has less in common than you might expect with the general Japanese cuisine. Our main focus will be on Okinawa soba noodles, featuring a light soup made from katsuo-bushi bonito flakes and topped with tender pork belly simmered in awamori, Okinawa's famous local spirits. We'll also introduce two vegetable stir-fries that you can make easily and quickly as side dishes.
4x15 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: Shallow-fried Salmon Fillets
September 4, 2015
Our theme this episode is grilling. We'll be using a popular ingredient, salmon, to make shallow-fried salmon. We'll marinate it in a delicious sauce, then sprinkle it with sesame seeds and ao-nori powder and fry it in a small amount of oil. For our side, we'll also be making a salad with firm octopus, crisp celery, and our chef's secret-recipe ume dressing for a light and refreshing Japanese flavor. Finally, we'll talk about the many versatile ways that salmon is used throughout Japan, from shio-yaki grilled in salt to sashimi, sushi, hotspots, and more.

October 2, 2015
Our theme this episode is "soaking." We'll be making a shojin ryori (vegan Buddhist monk dish) called ganmodoki tofu fritters, simmered for plenty of flavor. The dish starts with carefully strained tofu, with shiitake mushrooms, carrot, lotus root, and ginkgo nuts added, and finally nagaimo yam added before forming it into balls and frying until golden brown. Ganmodoki fritters are delicious on their own, but today we'll be simmering them in a flavorful soup made with kombu kelp. We'll also be making jade-simmered eggplants by half-peeling eggplants in strips, then frying them in oil, and finally soaking them in a kombu kelp dashi to let them soak up the rich, delicious flavor. We'll also talk about the history of shojin ryori, a traditional Japanese form of cooking practiced by Buddhist monks, designed to minimize food waste and to make vegetables look and taste like fish or meat.
4x18 - Rika's TOKYO CUISINE: Rika's Gyudon (Beef Rice Bowl)

Beef is simmered in a flavorful mixture of equal parts mirin, soy sauce, sugar, and sake, making this an easy and delicious recipe even for beginners, and it's made with Japan's unique cut of thinly sliced beef trimmings, making the dish affordable as well. As a finishing touch, we'll add a poached egg on top of the simmered beef topping the rice, perfectly complementing the beef's sweet and savory flavor.

December 4, 2015
Our theme this episode is seared bonito tuna. We’ll be learning about Kochi Prefecture, located on the Pacific coast and positively overflowing with outstanding seafood, for famously delicious, seared bonito tuna. These fresh and wonderfully fatty tuna are caught with rods and lines, and then briefly grilled to a sear over a straw fire, sealing in the delicious wild tuna flavor that makes this such a popular local dish. We’ll learn from the head chef of one of Kochi’s most famous high-class restaurants, which has been in operation for centuries. We’ll also try moray eel, one of Kochi’s most popular foods, both lightly breaded and deep-fried, and in a hotpot.

These su-mikan fruits such as yuzu, encompass a huge number of fruits such as bushukan, naoshichi, and hanayu. We’ll learn from a master chef who has learned in his 45-year career how best to use this abundant variety of local produce as different varieties come into season throughout the year.
4x25 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: New Year’s cuisine Part 1
December 18, 2015
The first of two episodes where we introduce Osechi-ryori, the special cooking for celebrating the new year in Japan. We’ll be focusing on O-zoni soup and kurikinton, two of the many different Osechi-ryori dishes. Using a carefully prepared and richly flavorful dashi stock as a base, we’ll be adding daikon radish and carrot cut into auspicious turtle and crane shapes to pray for a long life, as well as other ingredients for a colorful dish full of good luck for the new year. We’ll also learn about regional O-zoni variations like different dashi or differently shaped mochi.

December 25, 2015
In this episode, we'll be making Japanese-style beef stew. This simmered dish, beloved the world over, is particularly popular in Japan.

This dish's combination of delicious flavor and ease of cooking makes it perfect for guests. For our side dish, we'll be making a refreshing salad that combines the slight bitterness of shungiku chrysanthemum leaves with orange, and for dessert, Rika will be making a shortcake of her own devising that combines the best elements of sponge cake and chiffon cake.
4x27 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: New Year's Cuisine Part 2
December 29, 2015
The second of two episodes where we introduce Osechi-ryori, the special cooking for celebrating the new year in Japan. In this episode, we’ll be focusing on items served inside of a traditional ju-bako box, in particular Chef Saito’s own unique take on nishime and a colorful namasu salad. Nishime is a fairly common household dish, and for the new year, we’ll be preparing it with shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, burdock root, and carrot, cut into shapes reminiscent of pine, bamboo, and ume plum trees, signs of good luck in Japan; each item is selected for its meaning, and carefully prepared. Because Osechi-ryori dishes have strong flavors to help them keep, our second dish, namasu salad, makes a great palate cleanser, with the slightly tart vinegar giving a light flavor to the daikon radish and carrot. We’ll be garnishing it with yuzu citrus peel, which has the perfect fragrance for ringing in the new year.
4x28 - Rika’s TOKYO CUISINE: Yellowtail Teriyaki
January 8, 2016
Our theme this episode is “one soup, three dishes,” the traditional structure for Japanese meals.

January 22, 2016

We'll also be meeting a local chef who will show us a local type of futomaki sushi, a popular food for special occasions in the area.

By using local ingredients, we'll see how to make a futomaki sushi roll full of Chiba flavor.
4x32 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: Mizutaki ～Hot Pot with Chicken Broth～
March 4, 2016
Our theme for this episode is hot pot cuisine. We'll be making mizutaki, a standard among Japan's many varieties of hot pots. By cooking a chicken over low heat for a long time, the delicious flavor is extracted all the way down to the marrow of the bones, for a collagen-rich soup that goes great with chicken and vegetables. This Hakata favorite has grown popular nationwide, and restaurants specializing in mizutaki can be found all over Japan. In this episode, Chef Saito will teach us how to bring the restaurant-style flavor of mizutaki home with his own recipe, using kombu kelp and rice to quickly reproduce a soup that usually requires simmering a chicken carcass for hours. We'll also learn how to finish off the hot pot with ramen noodles, taking advantage of all of the delicious flavors the soup gets from the ingredients cooked in it.
4x33 - Rika’s TOKYO CUISINE :Japanese-style Fried Meatballs
March 11, 2016
In this episode, we’ll be making Japanese-style fried meatballs. Rika’s mother taught her this unique recipe, where instead of stewing them, the meatballs are fried. By pre-heating onions in the microwave, their flavor can be integrated into the meat more easily. To add seasoning, we’ll be using soy sauce, ginger, and nutmeg, to give the flavor plenty of complexity. We’ll also be focusing on side dish soups made with ginger and showing a simple recipe for one of the many different Japanese dishes made with ginger.
4x34 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: Ginger Fried Pork
March 18, 2016
In this episode, we'll be focusing on super-fast recipes. Chef Saito will be teaching us about two popular home-cooked Japanese dishes, and easy recipes to make each of them in just fifteen minutes! Chef Saito is an expert in authentic Japanese cuisine, not just quick cooking, making for some surprising recipes that you won't want to miss. Our first dish is ginger fried pork, with a sweet and spicy sauce bound to make anyone hungry. Ginger has a lot of fibers in it, so it usually takes a lot of time and effort to grate, making it a dish that can take a while to prepare, and getting the balance of flavors in the sauce just right can be difficult, but by using Chef Saito's unique trick of using ginger ale, you can have the sauce ready in no time! We'll also be making quick niku-jaga, simmered potato and pork, using a surprising technique that involves heating the boiled potatoes in a dry pan.
