Sekihan, or Red Bean Sticky Rice, is a traditional Japanese dish made with glutinous rice and red beans. It is often served on festive occasions or special holidays in Japan. Instead of using mochi rice, this recipe incorporates Shiratama flour (glutinous rice flour) to create a delightfully sticky texture. To enhance the flavor, make your own Goma-shio (black sesame salt) and sprinkle it over the rice for a nutty, savory finish.
[RECIPE] Dashimaki Tamago
Dashimaki Tamago is a classic Japanese rolled omelet, made light and fluffy with the addition of Dashi broth. This version is served Ankake-style, featuring a savory, thickened sauce made with Kuzu starch. Kuzu starch, derived from the Arrowroot plant (Kuzu or Kudzu), is commonly used in Japanese cooking to create smooth, glossy sauces. It also helps make the omelet extra soft. This dish pairs wonderfully with steamed rice for a comforting side.
