Aguni salt, which I’ve been using for over 20 years, is made on a small island that you can reach by flight from Okinawa’s main island. It’s made from 100% seawater surrounding Aguni Island. Rich in flavour, it enhances the natural umami of ingredients.

Yakitori Somen Capellini Does the name sound a bit unusual? Don’t worry- it’s seriously tasty! This is my original recipe using ginger-flavoured tined yakitori and somen, Japan’s most popular summer noodle. Boil and chill the somen noodles, then mix with yakitori, black pepper, and olive oil. Top with tomato, sprouts, and lemon. Light, refreshing, and full of flavour- perfect for cooling down on a hot day!
