    Sweet Miso Walnuts

    This is a yummy ‘Otsumami’, that is something you eat with alcoholic drinks. I reckon chilled beer would be great. I like to eat it with freshly cooked rice, too. If you chop up Walnuts finely, this can be a sauce for grilled Tofu, Chicken, etc. I sometimes add Chilli. How would you enjoy it? …

    Sweet Potato & Peanuts with Miso Sauce

    This dish is a variation of my ‘Miso Peanuts & Tofu’. I replaced Tofu with steamed Sweet Potato today. I wanted to use Pumpkin, but Pumpkins in Australia are all too wet and not suitable for stir-fry dish like this one. Floury Pumpkin that has fluffy texture would be great. You may wish to try …

    Mackerel & Potato with Sweet Miso Sauce

    Here is another super easy dish that you can make using a small can of Mackerel. My husband always complains that Mackerel smells bad, but Mackerel is my favourite fish and it goes so well with Sweet Miso Sauce. To reduce the fishy smell, I often add Sake (Rice Wine) OR Mirin to the fish. …

    Mackerel ‘Chan-Chan-Yaki’ Udon

    ‘Chan-Chan-Yaki’ is originally a fishermen’s dish from Hokkaido, Japan’s northern island. Salmon is used for the dish, but it is delicious with Mackerel. I have shared my ‘Mackerel Chan-Chan-Yaki Rice Bowl’ on this website. This is Udon Noodle version of the dish. I used Canned Mackerel. It’s another quick & easy dish, very filling and …

    Konnyaku (Konjac) & Chicken with Sweet Miso Sauce

    Konnyaku is most commonly seasoned with Soy Sauce, but Miso is also good. Sweet Miso Sauce is particularly good. Today I cooked Konnyaku with Chicken with Sweet Miso Sauce. If you are vegetarian, I recommend to use ‘Atsu-age’ (fried firm Tofu) instead of Chicken. Makes 4 Servings Ingredients 1 block (250g) Konnyaku (Konjac)300 to 400g …

    Miso Udon Soup

    ‘Hōtō’ Noodle Miso Soup is one of my favourite Noodle dishes. It requires quite an effort for me to cook it as I always make ‘Hōtō’ Noodles from scratch. This dish is very similar to ‘Hōtō’ but much easier to prepare. This recipe is for 1 serving, but it is easy to increase. Just cook …

    Canned Salmon Wasabi Miso Rice Bowl

    None of my family members would enjoy this dish, because they hate Wasabi. I like Wasabi and I want the Wasabi flavour of the sauce quite strong. Today I added 2 teaspoons. The spiciness of Wasabi Paste can be fairly mild or quite strong. Please alter the amount to suit your taste. Makes 1 Serving …

  • Tofu & Soy Protein

    Fried Tofu with Sweet Miso Sauce

    ‘Atsu-age’ is the Japanese name for the deep-fried Tofu. Because it has been deep-fried, Tofu has firmer texture and meat-like outside, it is very suitable for stir-fry. Today I seasoned with Sweet Miso Sauce that I often use to season fried Eggplant. Makes 4 Servings Ingredients 500g Atsu-age (Deep-fried Tofu) *medium soft type recommended1 teaspoon …
