How To Make Japanese Breakfast

[@DessertGeek]

It's just so sweet that your mother cooked all those meals for you when you visited! You're passing on that tradition of care to all of us!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

My favourite part is Rie channelising Andrew and keeping food at eye level.

[@susanbrennan5511]

Thank you Rie for telling me I can freeze scallions! When I was young I met a Japanese girl in school. Our mothers met and became fast friends. She taught my mother to make what she called Japanese snack. Ramen hot dogs and cabbage. We invented many variations over the years. My mother loved the original and when I was taking care of her in her 90s she was always very happy when I made it. One of the variations I made was chicken scallions and slivered almonds. I always have the chicken the almonds and ramen but not always the scallions. Now thanks to you I will! Going to buy a big bunch tomorrow!

[@dannyczorrilla]

Just wanted to let you know that this little story brought a much needed smile to my face today. sometimes the internet can be a beautiful place. Thanks!

[@kboombite]

Recipe please? Or is it a family secrect?

[@susanbrennan5511]

No family secret to the recipe it was shared between cultures long long ago. The original was hot dogs sliced up stir fried with the cabbage. The ramen was cooked just in boiling water. The seasoning packets were divided. Half went into the cabbage mixture half went in after the ramen was cooked and combined with the cabbage. The chicken version was chicken breast slivered almonds and and scallion. Same thing ramen boiled in water half the seasoning went into the chicken the other half when the boiled ramen got combined. It is addictive. I made it for my sons I made it for my mother and now I make it for myself. Thank you Hirokimo thank you Ayako and thank you to my mother. She gave me the love of cooking!

[@veronniep]

If you don't want to freeze them, the other great thing about scallions is you can just stick em in a jar of water and change out the water once a week and they'll keep growing! I bought scallions once from the store and they've lasted me a year.

[@bleachedkon]

I never liked natto growing up but then I ate it fresh when I went to Japan and realized what a world of a difference it makes when you eat a fresh, not frozen natto. Now, whenever I go to Japan, I eat natto everyday and will even go to the convenience store and buy the natto maki for breakfast or a midnight snack. I like adding chopped green onions to my natto, if I'm eating it with a bowl of rice.

[@chocolatecookiesm5501]

Thanks for sharing a bit of your culture with us Rie! The food looks excellent 😋

[@BlackPanther-lj7ov]

More like, "a bite of your culture" Lol.

[@niccoloreiss842]

I made this breakfast this morning with a few alterations, since I don’t like eggplant I substituted that for zucchini, and I’m allergic to soy so I decided to make some red bean paste instead since I like to have a bit of sweetness with salmon when I eat it and it all went so well together. I usually don’t eat breakfast because it’s so heavy and it makes me feel tired, but this made me feel energized and ready for the day especially since I paired it with freshly made matcha for a drink. Thank you so much Rie, since I’m a paramedic, having something nutritious and quick that won’t slow us down that I can quickly cook in the morning for everyone on shift is really helpful.

[@wpc456cpw]

That sounds delicious!! Keep up the good work ❤️

[@katekramer7679]

I love Japanese breakfast! FYI, if you don't have a tamagoyaki pan it's not too hard to make an omelette in a round frying pan. You can just "fold" the edges of the layers into a square before you roll them.

[@oldskooljules]

You don't have to 'make it fancy' for home cooking ;)

[@Iceechibi]

@@oldskooljules i just roll mine in a small round pan that you would use for frying eggs. I shape it once it’s cooled down with plastic wrap anyway so no one notices the difference (and my husband really likes it!)

[@emad7871]

Watching this made me tear up - I’m going to college far from home and I never realized how much I loved watching my mom cook Japanese food for me. Your videos let me go home for a little bit. Thank you so much!

[@CoralCrayon]

My favorite part of a japanese breakfast is how nutritious it is! Your body feels healthy and whole after.

[@minasminasminas]

omg rie i cant believe you made a Michelle Zauner from Japanese Breakfast, im going to try it myself today!

[@joziannebrennan8154]

This was so interesting. As someone from the US and Canada, I am used to a big heavy breakfast. This opened my mind (and stomach) to trying something different. I would love to see a collab with you and Claire Saffitz. I love how you both have an incredible respect for food and I think a Japanese deserts episode would be really fun to watch :)

[@thestarspark2288]

What do you normally eat? Here in Australia we just have toast or cereal.

[@swyeee]

My mom is obsessed with Yami! I swear she gets a package from them every 1-2 weeks 😂

[@LegendoftheGalacticHero]

I’m having stomach issues and was look into Japanese breakfasts because they seem very healthy complete meals without pigging up and this video has come just in time

[@thesehandlesarefuckingstupid]

Im in the same boat, I have been building an amazon cart of things to get started. So tired of the food here and im looking forward to seeing how much better ill feel after a while.

[@nep4912]

I love this video, I went to japan for a month a few years back and every morning I would have a Japanese breakfast, it was much lighter than what I’m used to and got me ready for the day Tamagoyaki is my favorite part :)

[@kittensgregorio3171]

Rie’s content is an absolute gem for foodies, hope to see more videos from you. Always love the positive vibes and the calming effect your videos give.

[@Iceechibi]

I studied abroad in Japan for a semester and my host grandmother made Japanese breakfast almost every day. 🥺 I loved it so much when I went back to the states, I wanted only Japanese breakfast for my morning meal. I love western breakfast and brunch still on weekends, but I mostly eat Japanese breakfast and Turkish breakfast as both are light and refreshing (and both still have egg components!).

[@staceyhunt6769]

Pregnant with my 4th baby and, whilst we've always tried to have a small amount of dishes from all over (Japanese being our favourite!), I have extreme food aversions to everything except home-made ramen, tofu and plain rice. Hoping I can find some more dishes I can add into what I can eat by checking videos like these. Thank you for sharing!

[@ConScortis]

This is the first video I have watched and I loved it - you're very informative and entertaining. BTW, even though I'm not Japanese, I love natto. We have a Japanese guy in Sydney who makes natto. It's always sold fresh and never frozen and is therefore much fresher than the imported stuff. It doesn't come with the mustard and sauce and a Japanese girl told me to mix it with 1 tsp shoyu, 1 tsp mirin, 1 tsp brown rice vinegar and half tsp pure maple syrup. It's seriously delicious.

[@Yulises]

Thank you for the update Rie! It's nice to see you and your family doing well! :D

[@nirls]

you’re an absolute gem in this universe rie, thank you for making our lives so much better

[@user-jh7cq3ct6u]

Midnight Diner got me so into hot rice butter and soy sauce. So I had that 2 days in a row i ate Japanese style breakfast with natto, 1 egg and small instant miso soup. It's like the natto is like the meat instead of bacon😅. Next ill try this tamagoyaki or salmon. Thanks for sharing miso from scratch recipe❤❤❤

[@hanako4484]

Your culture is very fascinating! And I'm new to the channel so I had no idea you had a kid! Congrats! :D

[@2katz1sonmom50]

I am very inspired to try a Japanese Breakfast now.... really enjoy your videos, you sharing your heritage, and especially your encouragement "you can do it" attitude.... thank you for always smiling and great sense of humor...

[@bethbianco151]

I tried the nato (luckily I got an authentic Japanese brand here in Brazil) and I loved it. It's perfect with warm rice and a little parsley. Thank you!

[@Alimakingherway]

Myself and my husband have been craving this since being back home after being in Japan, so I'll be making this on the weekend. Thank you for your video ❤

[@oldskooljules]

13:24 - my favourite :D Your cooking fills me with natsukashii feelings from when I lived in Kakegawa. The smell of grilling salmon in the morning is a core memory.

[@Lennymoss]

First video I’ve watched of yours, you’re so funny :)

[@Chris_Might-Travel]

I do miss having Japanese style breakfast in the morning. And I’m glad to see you back!

[@FearlessP4P1]

Awww congrats on the baby! You have such a cute family

[@sweetlorikeet]

The thing with Japanese breakfast that puts me off trying to make it is that each component isn't technically difficult but they're all relatively time-consuming. How long from start to finish does it take to make a spread like this? What time would I have to start cooking if I wanted breakfast at 7am lol?

[@ericacuevas2301]

Yeah I was seeing myself with a lot of prepackaged/prepped options like instant miso, reheating rice from the fridge, air frying the salmon to save time and likely buying prepackaged veggie sides lol

[@vivida7160]

In Japan, it can be done in like 15 minutes because the kitchen and the utensils are all made for cooking food like this. You have a rice cooker that you can time so the rice is ready at your desired time, you have a built-in gas-heated grill under your gas stove, you have a special frying pan to male the egg omlette etc. The natto and pickles are something you always have in the fridge so you just take them out in the morning to eat. You only have to extract the stock for miso soup for a few minutes using a ready-made packet of ground dried kelp and bonito flakes so the soup is also quick to make. Making pancakes and fried eggs is much more time consuming.

[@homesteadgamer1257]

I'm all down for miso soup for breakfast! Miso is one of my favorite foods, it's such a comfort food for me. I feel significantly better when I eat it. I love just sipping on the broth too.

[@TBHNotGonnaLie]

Omg I'm so happy to see you pop up on my feed, it has been awhile...and as usual the food looks stunning and delicious

[@kasko8550]

I love it! Thanks! I want to learn to prepare Japanese food. It is healthy!

[@bexraphaela]

I just tried natto for the first time and I’m pleasantly surprised how good it is! I’m going to get salmon tomorrow and try to make this for lunch. Thanks for sharing!

[@BaNana-dc2tk]

I am obsessed with Natto! On the other hand, my roommate who majors in Japanese studies doesn't 😂 It's the perfect protein for breakfast, quick, and fulling without any cooking, just microwave some pre-cooked rice and boom, healthy breakfast

[@vixlenz]

So well explained, thank you!!💕💕💕

[@mmbturtle5134]

I was very excited about Yami since they had a few things I haven't been able to get recently but they don't ship to Canada, so sad. Maybe I'll make a Japanese breakfast tomorrow to cheer myself up.

Thank you so much for this video! Now I finally know what I made wrong when cooking Miso soup. And I wouldn't have thought of freezing scallions... What a game changer

[@lisahiland4855]

I am living in Okinawa and now prefer Japanese breakfast over American breakfast. I don’t cook fish very well but I do eat rolled omelette, miso, natto, tofu or abrage ,and vegetables like gobo, bitter melon, or pickled vegetables

[@donjoel6754]

Glad you got to go home Ms.Rie. Home cooked food always hits hard.

[@nandkishorpandey3036]

As always lots of love from your fans ❤ and stay blessed 🙌

[@MarkyTeriyaki]

It reminds me a lot of the breakfast we eat in Norway. We tend to eat salmon, but instead of rice we have sour dough bread, and in my household we often ate soup from the dinner before. I lived in Japan and enjoy both, but something about fork mashed avocados on sour dough bread with smoked salmon and scrambled eggs is hard to beat.

[@gyrene_asea4133]

Many thanks for a very nicely done vid. I subscribed. Simple and gentle presentation of really good food for real people. Loved it when a perfect girl perfectly said that things don't have to be perfect. Yes, a Moment.

What can you do to speed up the process? Can you make anything in advance and reheat / defrost? I don't have a lot of time in the morning to cook.

Hello rie. I just got a zojuroshi rice cooker. I want to start bringing Japanese bento for lunch, I even got a two tier box from Kyoto. Can you maybe do bento recipes? Please. I feel like you'd make the best and easiest to follow recipes. Please >.

You mentioning how Japanese breakfasts are liter than Western breakfasts really caught my attention. I’ve never been able to eat breakfast without getting a really bad stomachache because Western breakfast is so heavy or greasy, and I’ve tried everything I can in my twenty four years so far. I’m going to try some Eastern breakfasts and hopefully not be doubled over with a stomachache 😂

[@funsized924]

I do find it kind of crazy that we don't have a small oven option in the US. I learned about the fish grill while watching other videos on asian cooking and honestly that would make cooking SO much faster!
