Kombu kelp dashi goes well with fish, and bonito flake dashi goes well with vegetables, while niboshi dashi has a light and clean flavor with a distinctive depth that comes from using whole fish, leading it to be a popular choice in homes all across Japan to make everyday miso soup since long ago.

5x15 - Rika’s TOKYO CUISINE: Gyusuji Curry and Rice
August 19, 2016
In this episode, we'll be making curry with gyusuji, or beef tendons.

5x20 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: Teriyaki Chicken
October 14, 2016
In this episode, Chef Saito will be making teriyaki chicken, a Japanese standard. Teriyaki is a distinctly Japanese style of cooking, where a soy sauce-based sweet and savory sauce is added to foods being pan-fried or grilled to coat them. This style of cooking is becoming well known worldwide, and Chef Saito will explain the basics. And for our side dish, nothing says fall in Japan quite like salmon, so we'll also be making salmon rice, full of plenty of other fall ingredients too, like mushrooms, Japanese herbs, and mitsuba trefoil.

We'll also be taking advantage of some of fall’s delicious seasonal ingredients, making chestnut rice as well as a clear soup that combines shrimp dumplings with matsutake mushrooms, the "king of autumnal flavors." To bring out the best flavor from the mushrooms, we'll be cooking them separately from the shrimp dumplings, only bringing them together at the very end in the serving bowl — a preparation style befitting this exquisite dish.
5x26 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: Savory Egg Custard (Chawanmushi)
December 16, 2016

January 13, 2017
Oysters are one of the culinary highlights of winter. Japan's oysters are known for their size and creamy flavor, and in this recipe we'll be using them for two different dishes. Our first is deep-fried oysters, breaded with Japanese-style panko breadcrumbs to make them crunchy outside yet tender inside.

For our side dish, we'll be making udon noodles topped with stir-fried pork belly and Chinese chives, and a soup made with ago or flying fish for the perfect finishing touch on the flavor.

For our side dish, we'll be making a light soup, using plenty of cabbage — the perfect complement to fried fish. By using a bit of bacon, we can bring out the sweetness of the cabbage. We'll also be preparing a rich, flavorful salad made with asparagus and onsen eggs, one way of preparing boiled eggs.
5x31 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: Oden
March 3, 2017
In this episode, Chef Saito will be making oden, simmering meat, seafood, vegetables, and other items in a pot of hot dashi broth. Simmering these items together helps them share their delicious flavors and pick up the great flavor of the simmering broth, while the simmering broth gets the flavors of the other ingredients at the same time — it's the secret to why oden is so delicious! Chef Saito will share useful tips and advice for how to prepare the ingredients beforehand, making sure that they're cooked through and that any off flavors have been removed before adding them to the simmering broth, to keep everything tasting great.
5x32 - Authentic Japanese Cooking: Simmered Kinki Fish
March 17, 2017
In this episode we'll be making simmered kinki fish, considered one of Japan's finest simmered dishes. One distinctive quality of Japan's simmered fish dishes is that they are often simmered in a small amount of simmering broth, rather than simmering for a long time in a lot of broth to heavily flavor the fish — even after the fish simmer, they still retain much of their original flavor, with only the outermost layer of the fish being seasoned by the simmering broth. Chef Saito will be teaching us the secrets of great simmered fish prepared this way. We'll also be making a side dish featuring the popular fish tuna, and natto, which is famously considered an acquired taste. Even if you don't think you like natto, this recipe uses chopped natto in a way you're bound to love, for a dish that goes great with sake.
