Yamakake gohan :Yam topping-rice (cooking)

Yamaimo is one of the few plants that grows naturally in Japan. It can be divided into several types. Wild yam, Japanese yam (Chinese yam), Yamatoimo, etc. Of these, wild yam and Yamatoimo are very sticky, so they are grated raw with a grater, mixed with dashi stock and wasabi, and eaten over rice.

This is the moment when I feel glad that I was born as a Japanese. In addition, if you use yamakake gohan, the yam helps digest starch, so there is an advantage that you can digest the rice even if you don't chew the rice too much. By the way, I used Yamatoimo this time.

山掛けご飯（料理）

日本に自生する数少ない植物に、山芋がある。これは幾つかの種類に分けられる。自然薯、山芋（長芋）、ヤマトイモなど。このうち、自然薯とヤマトイモは粘りが強く、生のままおろし金ですりおろし、だし汁、ワサビなどを混ぜて、ご飯に掛けて食べる。

日本人に生まれて良かったと思う瞬間である。なお、山掛けご飯にすると、山芋がデンプンの消化を助けるので、ご飯をあまり噛まずに食べても消化されるというメリットがある。ちなみに、今回はヤマトイモを使った。

sometimes it is possible to rehabilitate your relationship to a food by eating it a new context that makes you like it. brussels sprouts cooked long and soaked in butter making you appreciate all brussels sprouts, or bok choy overcooked in hot pot making you reevaluate all leafy greens. it’s so wonderful that we can do this. all food can be redeemed. except bell peppers the worst ingredient ever invented, disgusting little peppers, trash

No one:

Me: Let me keep record of the list of stuff available to order at Keiwa's fav soba shop, so anyone can use these for their fics...

From right to left: (At least the ones I can read atm)

Kake - Soba noodle dish made by pouring hot dashi-based soba soup over boiled soba noodles with a sliced scallion garnish.

Tanuki - Kake soba with a layer of tenkasu (tempura bits) on top of the noodles and soup (in Osaka, this was called Haikara soba)

Kitsune - Kake soba topped with aburaage, a lightly sweet, deep-fried tofu pocket (in Osaka, this was called Tanuki soba)

Tsukimi - Kake soba noodles topped with raw egg (that'll become poached inside the hot broth)

?toji

Okame - soba dish that resembles the okame face — a bamboo shoot is the nose and the two kamaboko (cured surimi) are the eyes; soba with Yuba (dried tofu skin), tamagoyaki, shiitake mushroom, kamaboko, bamboo shoot, seaweed, spinach

Okametoji - Okame soba with egg on top

Yama??

Chikara udon - Hot udon noodle soup topped with mochi

Yamakake (Tororo) - Kake soba topped with pureed yamaimo (mountain yam). Often served with raw quail eggs

Tempura Soba - Kake soba topped with deep-fried tempura shrimp and vegetables (Originally topped with chopped scallops and shrimp kakiage)

Mori - cold soba served in a bowl with the noodles submerged in the broth (served in small portions)*

Oomori - Mori soba served in normal portions

Zaru - soba served on a bamboo tray with soy dipping sauce on the side

Tenzaru - a dish that combines two classic Japanese favourites: tempura seafood and vegetables, and zaru-style cold soba served on a bamboo dish

??Tenzaru

??yashiyama??

*I guess it's like boat noodle. Come to think, Ace did have mori soba on that one episode... early on the Creation Arc.

Bincho Robata Daiyame (備長炉端 だいやめ) SK Building 1F, 10-1 Doyamacho, Kita-ku, Osaka, Japan Acrylic A5x2 Hahnemühle portrait sketchbook Thursday November 14 2024

I had wanted to eat Robatayaki on this Kansai trip since Osaka is famous for this style. So I asked Shin-Chan of Akane Chaya restaurant in Gardena who came from Osaka. He didn't know the exact restaurant but he pointed me to Tenma Station. I looked up Robatayaki restaurant and found one. So, from Namba I took the subway to Tenma, one stop before Umeda and fought my way through the 1st floor of a seemingly regular building to make it to Bincho Robata Daiyame (備長炉端 だいやめ) . Even the door seemed so small you would think it would disappear like in a chapter of the MATRIX movie. But once through the door it was nice'n cozy and I heard a few women speaking cantonese at the charcoal roaster at the front. Here they used the best binchotan charcoal to get those delicious flavor on the grill. These ladies only dine at the very best of the local eateries and thus I knew I was good. I was a little disappointed not seeing the viking setting of raw seafood piled between the customers and the cook and delivery of the grilled dishes to be done via a large wooden paddle. But the two waitresses were very cordial and completely forgave my gaijin status. I asked for an Omakase but they suggested I chose the dishes I liked. I picked about half a dozen and asked for tsukemono in the end and they only had cucumbers, but it was well worth it. I had a beer and a barcadi hi-ball and 8 dishes. The bills were only 6,028 yens ($40.25) and included the following:

1) Draft Kirin Ichiban 2) Tsukemono 3) Turban shell 4) Otoro sardine 5) Mentaiko roll 6) Grilled Yamato chicken breast 7) Awaji onion 8) Yamaimo 9) Grilled silver cod in saikyo-style sauce 10) Bacardi highball

I walked back out into the cold night of Osaka for the train back to Kobe completely satisfied.

山芋|薯蕷[Yamanoimo] Dioscorea japonica

山[Yama] : Mountain

(の[No]) : Of

芋[Imo] : Yam, potato

山芋 is usually read as Yamaimo, but Yamaimo and Yamanoimo are slightly different. If it is read as yamaimo, in most cases, refers to 長芋[Nagaimo](Dioscorea polystachya,) which is a cultivated crop. Yamanoimo is also called 自然薯[Jinenjo] and was originally a wild species. 長[Naga] means long, 自然[Jinen|Shizen] means nature and 薯[-jo|Sho|Imo] means approximately the same as 芋.

Reading 薯蕷 this way is an ateji from a Chinese name.

All our cats are named after Japanese ingredients over the years - Wasabi, Anko, Kinako, Adzuki, Shoga (ginger), Goma (sesame), Shoyu (soy sauce), Kuromame (black bean), Shio (salt), Kosho (pepper), Komugiko (flour) -> later became just Komugi (wheat).

We also had 4 hedgehogs - Poteto (french fry) the mom and three babies we names Yamaimo (mountain potato), Satsumaimo (sweet potato), and Jagaimo (potato).

A turtle named Cliantro, a shrimp named Carrot, and I've stopped naming the fish XD

Bonus points if you reblog with the pet's name in the tags
