Editor's Review
Hello! 👋 This is Yoshiharu Doi, and I'm thrilled to invite you into the world of authentic Japanese home cooking through my dedicated app! 🍣
For years, I've shared my passion for home-cooked meals on television and in magazines. Now, with this app, I can connect with you directly, sharing the nuances and soul of Japanese cuisine in a way that transcends traditional media. The beauty of an app is its limitless potential – no time constraints, no page limits – allowing me to convey the subtle details and the 'why' behind each dish. It’s a space where I can freely share not just recipes, but my thoughts on ingredients, cooking philosophies, and even aspects of life that influence my cooking.
Japanese home cooking is deeply intertwined with our lives – our families, friends, ourselves, and the environment around us. 🌳 It’s about connecting with people, nature, and the lifestyle we embrace. This app allows me to share timely insights, like recommending refreshing dishes when it’s hot ☀️ or comforting, rich foods as the weather cools. I believe there's immense potential in sharing this connection with the seasons and nature, which are fundamental to Japanese home cooking.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Weekly Seasonal Recipes: 📅 Every week, I’ll deliver around 10 original recipes, complete with videos, that truly capture the essence of the current season. Experience the freshest flavors!
- Doi Tsushin: 🗣️ Dive into video communications where I share my stories about ingredients, cooking methods, and the inspiration behind my dishes. It’s a more personal, unscripted glimpse into my culinary world, offering a handmade feel that’s different from TV or radio.
- Japanese Spirit: 🌸 Japanese home cooking is more than just recipes; it’s a cultural experience. I'll share readings on basic cooking techniques and the historical backgrounds of traditional dishes, celebrating their wonderfulness beyond just the steps.
- Basics of Japanese: 🥢 Discover practical tips and menu ideas for creating delicious 'Japanese food menus' the Doi way, perfect for elevating your everyday meals.
