Omisoka

Omisoka

We call 31th December as "Oomisoka". I don't know why :X

Every family welcome their children or grand children coming, with unusual cuisine.

As well as, my mom bought this sashimi for my sister coming back from Osaka.

I don't remember exact amont of it, but there were a lot of people buying sashimi or sushi at market on 31th.

Maguro(Tuna), Kanpachi(maybe yellowtail) and squid sashimi. I especially like Kanpachi. Rich taste and flavor, but somehow I didn't like when I was a kid :p

I spent great time with my family with this and JApanese sake at the time.

I'm back!

I apologize letting you wainting for so long time.

I begun working at new office since last saturday, and everythis seems goikng well :)

Anyway, I have a lot of photo of cuisines to introduce in my cellphone.

Stay tuned!!

Notice

Being extremely busy due to job change ...:(

Will be back in 1 week. Let me apologize for inconvenience ..

Raw liver(liver sashimi)

Raw river(liver sashimi)

Can you imagine how does this dish taste?

Generally qw can find it at Yakiniku restaurant. You can't find it at market. Freshness is important for eating dish like this.

Especially we like it as side dish for beer. Very thin sliced but taste strong.

I dip it into sesami oil, but dipping into soy sauce with ground ginger is preferable as well :)

You probably can find it at Yakiniku restaurant near your place.

Iwashi Mentaiko

Iwashi Mentaiko

Iwashi means sardine and Mentaiko is cod ovum according to dictionary.

Mentaiko is popular food in Japan but I have heard that it was imported from Korea. If you want to know more, please google it.

Head and bowel removed, and mentaiko put into abdomen.

Just purchesed at the market and grill on Pan by oil stove fire :p

I ate it for the first time but felt nice combination!

But I think it is pretty hard to eat in overseas...
