Fabulous Food in Japan

Fabulous Food in Japan
1 min

Japanese cuisine is among the world’s healthiest. In my opinion, it is also among the world’s tastiest! In 2007, while traveling in Japan to lecture and teach, I was fortunate to eat some wonderful, fresh cuisine in a variety of places and settings throughout the country. Photos are by Andre Fasciola.

  • Strawberry Fields
    While teaching a workshop in the Nagano prefecture, I was invited to pick wonderful, organic strawberries at a local farm. I'm surrounded by scare-eye balloons. Birds are kept at bay because they perceive the bright spots as the eyes of predators.
  • A Peeling
    I'm enjoying fresh fruits and vegetables at the home of Keiichi Ueno, who has translated all of my books into Japanese. He and his wife, Harumi Sugiwara, have a beautiful home and garden in Ito City.
  • Aguest
    Keiichi and Harumi's dog and I share a love of fine food.
  • In the Fresh Air
    Another wonderful meal: Freshly baked whole-grain bread, rice porridge, fresh-picked strawberries and a cup of green tea.
  • Noodle Trough
    Close to an old Shinto shrine sits a nagashi somen (flowing noodles) eatery. These are summertime favorites throughout Japan. The noodles were cooked behind a shoji screen, then send down a split-bamboo flume in ice-cold water. The diner's task is to pluck out noodles with chopsticks before they pass.
  • Prpoer Technique
    Fresh-plucked noodles are dipped into tsuyu sauce before eating. Delicious!
