My family’s favourite Spinach dish is definitely ‘Goma-ae Spinach’, however it contains a fair amount of Soy Sauce. I am trying to reduce Salt intake because of my husband’s health issue.

This is a Korean ‘Namul’ inspired salad. It is absolutely easy to make, yet really yummy. As I always use a can of Tuna in Springwater, I add a reasonable amount of Salt, but you need to alter the amount of Salt. If you use Tuna in Oil, you may wish to use the Oil …

The product of thinly sliced Kombu (Kelp) that looks like coated with Salt is sometimes called ‘Shio Kombu’ (塩昆布), Salted Kombu, in Japanese.

The dish I most frequently cook with a block of Konnyaku (Konjac) is ‘Kimpira’ Konnyaku (Konjac). It is a very popular dish in Japan. Today I added Tuna and Garlic.
