Ingredients
For cooking, I usually use cane sugar.This one is made from 100% sugarcane grown on Miyakojima island, one of the Okinawa Islands. It has an extra-fine texture, melts easily, and is rich in minerals and flavour. Crops from Miyakojima are especially tasty- they thrive in the island’s rich soil and sunny climate.

My go-to recipe for hot and humid summer days is stir-fried pork with ginger, called shogayaki in Japanese.In my version, I use fresh ginger in two ways: first to marinate the pork, then again in a sauce made with soy sauce, mirin, sake, and a little sugar.With plenty of ginger, it’s packed with stamina-boosting power. Let’s beat the summer heat!

Don’t throw away the oil that comes with the tinned tuna-it’s packed with umami!Here’s my original tuna dressing recipe. It’s super simple, just mix the whole tin, oil included, with chopped onion, vinegar, salt, pepper and a little sugar. Spoon it over salad vegetables, and don’t forget to add some tinned mixed beans and nuts. It’s a perfectly balanced salad dish!
