‘Takikomigohan’ is a Japanese dish of Rice that is cooked with other ingredients and seasonings. It can be in any flavours. Today’s main ingredient is Pork Speck that I usually use for soups.

When I purchase a bag of frozen seafood mix, Mussels are most likely included. I always remove Mussels because my family members don’t like them. Therefore, I often end up having leftover frozen Mussels that I need to cook for myself. I often cook ‘Tsukuidani’, but today I cooked them with Rice. If you have …

I love Takikomigohan, that is a Japanese dish of Rice cooked with other ingredients and seasonings all together. ‘Abura-age & Carrot Takikomigohan’ is one of my favourites and I wanted to eat it today, but I didn’t have Abura-age (Fried Thin Tofu).

Where I grew up in Japan, Bamboo Shoots were not something we purchase from stores. Bamboo shoots came out of the ground in every spring wherever bamboos were growing. Some of our family relatives and friends who owned bamboo groves always shared their seasonal harvest with us. I miss the fresh Bamboo Shoots. One of …
I had some rashers of Bacon siting in the fridge for a while, and I needed to use them up. Then I hit on a good idea! I cooked the Bacon with Rice in the rice cooker. It’s an attempt to make a new Takikomigohan dish. I seasoned it with the typical Japanese seasonings, Soy …

This is another ‘Takikomigohan’, a Japanese dish of Rice cooked with other ingredients and seasoning, but the flavour of this dish is not Japanese. I used Lemongrass to add flavours to the Rice.
