Steamed Rice

Method

Steamed Rice

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Rinse jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a pot, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

Fried Rice

  1. 2

    Prepare Fried Rice

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced carrots and peas, and cook for 2-3 minutes. Push the veggies to one side of the skillet, pour in the beaten eggs, and scramble until cooked. Add the cooked rice and soy sauce, mixing everything together. Stir-fry for an additional 5-7 minutes until heated through. Garnish with green onions before serving.

Miso Soup

  1. 3

    Make Miso Soup

    In a pot, bring dashi stock to a simmer. Remove from heat and whisk in miso paste until dissolved. Add cubed tofu and soaked wakame. Return to heat until warmed. Serve garnished with sliced green onions.

Garden Salad

  1. 4

    Assemble Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and shredded carrot. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, then season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine and serve.

Teriyaki Noodles

  1. 5

    Cook Noodles

    Cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside. In a large skillet, combine teriyaki sauce, broccoli, bell pepper, and carrot. Cook until veggies are tender. Add cooked noodles and toss to combine. Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
