I introduce a traditional Japanese nanohana recipe this week. Japanese Recipe of the Week: Nanohana no Karashiae To make karashiae, boiled nanohana plants are simply dressed with karashi mustard flavored sauce. In spring, nanohana fields around Japan are filled with yellow flowers. Tender nanohana plants with flower buds are suitable for cooking. Nanohana no Karashiae Recipe Harusame Salad Harusame noodles (cellophane noodles) are often used in Asian cooking, and are popularly used in various salads in Japan. They can be simply dressed with mayonnaise. This is a refresing harusame salad recipe which uses soy sauce based dressing. I like the flavor of sesame oil in this salad. Harusame Salad Recipe Sencha Green Tea Cake Green tea flavored sweets are very popular, and it's common to use matcha for making green tea sweets. This green tea cake recipe uses sencha instead of matcha. If you like drinking sencha green tea and have sencha at home, try this recipe. Sencha Green Tea Cake Recipe Green Tea Pound Cake This is another green tea cake recipe flavored with matcha green tea powder.
