Hi everyone! Satsumaimo are Japanese sweet potatoes and are mainly harvested in fall in Japan. Why don't you try Japanese sweet potato recipes this autumn?

Japanese Recipe of the Week: Satsumaimo Chakin Shibori
Chakin shibori is a cooking method for forming mashed ingredients in chakin (tea cloth). As shibori means wringing in Japanese, a small amount of mashed satsumaimo is wrapped in thin cloth or plastic wrap and is formed by twisting the cloth or plastic wrap, leaving a patterned surface. Try these one or two-bite size sweet potato cakes this autumn.

Squid and Green Pepper Stir Fry
This is an easy stir fry recipe with squid and green bell pepper. It's simply seasoned with curry powder. You can use squid tentacles for this recipe if you would like. I usually use squid tubes for this dish and make ika geso age with tentacles. This spicy stir fry goes well with plain steamed rice.

In this recipe, karei fish is simmered in soy sauce based soup.It's a very easy and hearty dish which is perfect for fall or winter meals. You can use other flatfish or whitefish for this recipe.
