Strawberries & Pancakes + Simmered Ganmodoki + Mother's Day Gift Guide

" JUST ONE COOKBOOK T2 IV 292 Ty 2 ABOUT  •  CULTURE  •  TRAVEL Konnichiwa Just One Cookbook --  Do you have any fun plans for the weekend? I'll be catching up on my work, doing some recipe testing, and working on a big project that I'm hoping to reveal this summer! Behind the blog, here's a little bit from my week. 1) We attended a family member's wedding this past weekend. 2) We had a two-day video shoot and filmed five recipes! 3) We had dim sum with our talented musician friends Francesco Turrisi and Rhiannon Giddens before their show at the Fillmore in SF. 4) Miso turned 4 years old (but he still acts like a puppy)! 5) Our son is doing the final tuxedo fitting for prom tonight. Yeah, so our son is going to attend his school's prom this evening. It amazes me when I look at my little boy, who has grown into a confident, respectful, and hard-working person, ready to take flight independently. Many JOC readers have seen him grow from an elementary school boy to a high school senior—that's 13 years of his life! By the way, Mother's Day is coming soon, so I've included a gift guide this week. I hope you find the list useful! 😉 In this newsletter: * New: Simmered Ganmodoki * Featured: Napa Cabbage Stir-Fry * Featured: Amazing Mother's Day Gifts for the Food Lover * Video: How to use Dashi Packet  * Travel: How to Purchase and Use Japan Rail Pass * Featured: Strawberries & Pancakes SIMMERED GANMODOKI  Japanese fried tofu patties get a serious boost of umami from the dashi-based broth in this recipe. With store-bought or frozen homemade ganmodoki, you can put this light, satisfying dish on the table in just 35 minutes. *Vegan-Adaptable GET RECIPE NAPA CABBAGE STIR-FRY Full of dietary fiber and vitamins, this is my favorite way to bring umami to napa cabbage.  *Vegetarian adaptable GET RECIPE MOTHER'S DAY GIFT GUIDE From chic travel mugs to ultrasonic aroma diffusers to the best kitchen helpers, here are my handpicked gifts for mothers and mother figures to thank them for all they do for us! CHECK THEM OUT YOUR GUIDE TO DASHI PACKET  A dashi packet is a great alternative to making dashi (Japanese soup stock). It’s really convenient and produces a much more flavorful soup stock than one made with dashi powder. I'll show you how I use dashi packet in my cooking. WATCH THE VIDEO STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE HOW TO PURCHASE AND USE JAPAN RAIL PASS If you plan to travel around Japan, you can use the Japan Rail Pass (JR Pass) to save on Shinkansen and JR trains.
