Please!!! No More Earthquakes!!!

I just wrote the same thing on FB. We expect a huge earthquake tomorrow or day after... Some people are buying emergency supplies and so do I have a helmet on hand! I hope nothing happens but "If you are prepared, you don't have to worry"!



I think you now already know why I started my YouTube channel. I just want to share my recipes and wonderful foods we have here in Japan!!! I appreciate that I could share my recipes for 5 months (almost 50 recipes) because when I started my channel, I thought I could not even do this for this many times!!! Sorry if this sounds like I am going to die. LoL But seriously I am telling you this because some people think that I am sponsored or whatever... I have no time to create something for near-term benefit (if that the case, I wouldn't quit my job! LoL) but create something that I think is good! Since 311 I appreciate myself and all others being alive every single day and try to BEST use my time, cooking up a storm. haha

I will edit next recipe tomorrow ;D

Dragon Fruit

OMG! My dragon fruit was FUCHSIA PINK!!!



I never saw or ate such a pink food!!! I kind of not feeling any nutritional benefit from this color, but sure it contains lots of vitamins!!!

I thought it would be cool if I make a smoothie with this. LoL

Anyway, do you think the other one in the box is white?! It is hard to tell which one is which from the skin. haha (oops. it has a sticker showing it's white. LoL)

My tongue and fingers are really pink now!!!

This is my favorite dish that my mom cooks!!! It is like nikujaga but much easier to eat with chopsticks since the potato is rolled in the pork ;D

---------------------------------
Simmered Potato Pork Roll

Difficulty: Easy
Time: 20min
Number of servings: 2-3

Ingredients:
150g (5.3oz.) thin slices of pork (any portion of sliced pork is okay)
450g (1lb.) potato
A
* 3 tbsp. soy sauce
* 1 tbsp. sugar
1 tbsp. sake
12 frozen green bean (or some green peas)

Directions:
1. Peel and cut potatoes into wedges.
2. Work with one slice of pork at a time. Place the slice of pork so that the length of it is running flat and vertically towards you. Place the potato wedge on the end of the pork close to you and start rolling. Repeat with the remaining pork slices and potato wedges.
3. Place the rolls seam side down in a deep pot (place the remaining potato wedges as well).
4. Add water until cover, Add A and bring to a boil. Remove the scum, cover with drop-lid, and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes. Then add sake and green bean and simmer for another 5 minutes until potato is completely cooked through.

Drop-lid is called "Otoshi Buta" a in Japanese. It is traditionally made of wood but you can use aluminum foil. They ensure that the heat is evenly distributed and reduce the tendency of liquid to boil with large bubbles and break the fragile ingredients such as potato.
