On 7/28, my "Italian Japanese Sesame Sauce" won the silver prize at the original sauce contest organized by Kikkoman. They asked for yummy sauces using their soy sauce. My other three sauce recipes (miso soy sauce, maple natto ginger sauce, and apple soy sauce) won the bronze awards, too :) It seems like I'm receiving a dozens of bottle of soy sauce for the prize!


On 7/30, my "Sauce Taco Yakisoba" won the outstanding performance award at Yakisoba recipe contest.








Then, last but not least, on 7/31, my "Black Gomoku Rice Ball" won the highest award at the cereal rice recipe contest. I cooked rice with 5 black-colored ingredients: black pork (which is a local specialty in Kagoshima prefecture), sliced tangle (kind of seaweed), forbidden rice (black cereal rice), black sesame, and dried shitake mushroom. What was good about the prize is that this rice ball is going to be sold at am/pm (convenience stores) in September plus I received 100,000yen ($1,000) cash!!! Wow!!! I hope I didn't use all my luck.

On 7/12, the prize for participation at egg recipe contest. On 7/15, the prize for participation at tea recipe contest. On 7/19, received a prize at shochu cocktail recipe contest.

As for samples, I got miso making kit, natto furikake (rice topping), tomato juice, apricot wine & other wines, horse placenta serum, yakiniku sauce, collagen, Qi Salt, 50 bucks bookstore gift card, orange shampoo, acne care sample, and persimmon tea.

Tonight I am going out for a dinner with my co-workers again. Eating too many meals outside! Hope I don't get pimples later X(
