10 Easy Japanese Side Dish Recipes for Beginners

[@user-mc5vy2vk5n]

Funny thing, I watched, cooked and ate some Japanese dishes, but for the first time I see burdock. Here in Europe it's considered to be a weed, mostly. Burdock oil is good for hair. Parts of plants are known as folk medicine and some wild herb books do mention you can eat the root or prepare young stalks like asparagus, but I never actually saw it here to be eaten and as I dug up a root and cooked it, well, I guess it was old, because it was woody and not that nice. 😅 And even young stalks were pretty stringy and tasted very grassy. Seeing it being used so casually makes me kinda happy. Maybe I'll give it a second try, look for young roots and cook them or will make the salad. 👀

[@JapaneseCookingChannel]

Maybe getting Japanese burdock in other country is very difficult... I hope you can find good one next time!😊 Thank you for watching my channel!

Can you please make a video about side dishes that also could count as a meal when paired with rice alone ? Like the third and fourth side dish in this video, they could easily be the main source of protein in a meal yet are so simple and you could make two of them and add them in a bento for variety

[@ArenDsiire]

Great video, I just found your channel and love it so far! I love Japanese food, but it seems like it takes so long to make everything! Maybe you could do some videos of '30 minute Japanese meals' or '15 minute Japanese breakfasts' etc to show us how it can be done in a short time? 😊

[@JapaneseCookingChannel]

Thank you! Yea, that's good idea! I wanna make that kind of video. Thank you for your advise:) By the way, especially in the side dish video here, most of the recipes take less than 15 minutes or 30 minutes I think! (Tofu salad one needs time to drain water though...) So, please try to make them some time😊

[@iamsherlocked875]

I cannot comprehend the idea that each of this side dish is said to " take so long to make"?🙄🙄*sigh*... These are very easy to make like almost all are stir fried.

Here in Texas, our state wide grocery chain (HEB) has always sold fresh spinach bunches (currently $1.64 a bunch) along with pound bags of frozen whole leaf (currently $1.75). I'm Japanese-American and fondly remember my mom blanching fresh spinach from HEB, squeezing out the water and pouring soy sauce over it along with a pinch of red pepper flakes. It makes a quick and tasty side dish that I still make.

Are Japanese side dishes made in single meal format only, or can you make some of these in larger batches for weekly meal prep? I try to only do one or two big cooks a week, as I have chronic fatigue and don't have the energy to fix many dishes a day.

[@JapaneseCookingChannel]

Thank you for your comment! You can make them in larger batches for weekly meal prep! Please just increase the amount of ingredients in the recipe I wrote on the description.

[@suzi-ml8ep]

how long does the side dish last in fridge? usually how many side dish do you eat at once, do you just eat the side dish with rice, or usually also with a main dish?

[@JapaneseCookingChannel]

It is best to eat up as much as possible within 2-3 days. If you want them to last longer, you can freeze them, but the texture of the vegetables will be much worse. Yes, we often eat the side dish with rice. Also, it becomes good snack with drink such as beer :) You don't have to make main dish, it's totally up to you! Hope you enjoy these dishes 💕

[@fusiapink5593]

Can you also add if possible to keep in fridge, how many days, and how to reheat (or no need to)?

[@JapaneseCookingChannel]

Thank you for your comment! You can keep all of them in fridge, and probably they should be eaten within 2-3 days. The burdock salad, cabbage salad, tofu salad, and egg&tomato one shouldn't be reheated. But you can do for others! Hope you try the recipes😊

[@Dzejmsz]

Thank you for always watching my video💖 Sake can be used to add sweetness and richness to dishes, but if you don't want to use alcohol, please just skip it. I think the taste will be fine even without sake. Or I would say adding just a pinch of sugar will be good substitute if it's fine for you!

how long should I season the pork with ginger and miso?

[@JapaneseCookingChannel]

Once seasoned with sake, soy sauce and ginger, it can be baked immediately. (If you have a time, maybe it's better to wait for 5 minutes.) Once miso is added to the pan, stir-fry until miso is dissolved. When the ingredients are cooked and well mixed, it is okay to turn off the heat.
