How many dishes does Japanese eat?

by

GyozaWhether talking about breakfast, lunch or dinner eat Japanese several dishes at every meal.

It is not big and heavy dishes as you know in Europe, but rather small, light and healthy dishes. A Japanese dish can have the same size as a Spanish tapas dish.

A common theme and what is a ‘must’ in the Japanese diet pyramid is the classic miso soup which is made of fish stock dashi.
In addition, eat Japanese fish at least once a day, it can be fish prepared in different ways either as fried, grilled or raw.

How to use tofu in the Japanese cuisine?

Zoë EsccherIn Japan eaten soy such as tofu eaten in unlimited amounts, it is a healthy source of protein.
There are many different varieties of tofu in different price ranges and qualities. When the variety of tofu in Japan is very high so I cannot assess which brand is best.

The consistency of tofu is very different some types are soft while others are fixed. Which tofu are best suited all depends on the dish and how you would like to use tofu in your dish.

More and more Japanese prefer to make tofu at homes. It’s cheaper and you also have a freshly made tofu at hand.
