I laughed at how you were like, “this doesn’t taste good…” and then proceeded to put it on the bento food hahaha. I love your videos so much.

this made me laugh too!

[@ray7419]

Such a great video and great recipes. Good job, love it. 😊👍

[@cynoglav9665]

If you don't cry while cutting onions, that means your knife is sharp! Dull knives cause damage to the onion cells and they release sulphur gas that turns into sulfuric acid in your eyes. So keep that knife sharp everyone!

[@serefine927]

Yeah my bf is always stealing my knifes if he has to cook with onions as the group has dull knifes only and they are really hard to keep sharp

[@ewwmorons]

Ooh i didn't know that! Thanks for sharing the info

Other KZbinrs: this is soooooo delicious! Imamu: I messed up. I appreciate your honesty! Your videos are genuine, wholesome and inspiring ^_^

[@SiMone-bi5po]

I love how she was like even if you don’t like eggplant, you may still want to try this 🤣 love this lady

[@mishchellerrr]

same! I don't like eggplant and this made me want to try it hahaha

[@cosmicrae]

I mean, it's just eggplant hehe

[@Anoogh]

Currently away from home for college and missing my Japanese moms cooking, thank you for gifting me with these short moments of peace and curing some of my home-sickness!

[@hiruki8]

Zoom call cooking with your mom! Wherever you are I'm sure there's some hour you're both awake and able to cook :). Good luck in school.

[@KimberlyByrdV]

You inspired me to start making my kids and husband Bentos every day they have school and work. Now it’s something that brings all of us a little more joy in our day to day life. I’m still learning but I’m loving the process and my kids LOVE opening lunch everyday to something new. Thank you for sharing this with us, lots of love!

[@masterofnothing3229]

Same. Imamu room and Batik Apron Stories really inspired me.

[@AP-zx1ok]

Me too! I am loving learning this style of cooking (used to western cooking). I am learning and trying new things and loving it. Makes me take a bit more pride in the plating too!

[@toniiiiiitoni]

I love this. I feel the same way. Hoping to do this with my partner too!

[@Spyder-tea]

“Come to think of it an onion never made me cry…am I human.” Shes so funny🤣

[@lovelydays_jen]

I laughed out loud when you admitted the sauce didn’t pair well with the shrimp roll. Haha it happens to the best of us! 🙂 p.s. I am also a huge fan of mayo 😋

[@mrskitkatlady]

My home cannot function without mayo. Hahahaha

[@KittyCat260]

It was the way the sauce didn't pair, then she tried mayo, went "No" and added it to the bento anyway 😂 except I'm sure we all know anything thst Imamu says doesn't pair well still probably tastes better than anything we've got at home!

[@quill6529]

Tartar sauce would go well with it

[@loversixteen]

Same here I laughed at this scene. Maybe spicy Mayo may work with the shrimp roll.

[@chantalmonique2353]

sweet and spicy sauce will go well with the shrimp roll

[@aasuhansener]

I laughed so hard imagining the husbento eating the shrimp roll and questioning if he is eating western or eastern cuisine. Best and most honest food channel on youtube

[@Salaza189]

For the shrimp spring roll, we actually have that in our country. The sauce usually is: - Sour and sweet fish sauce OR - A mix of mayo and ketchup. Don't add Korean chilli sauce. The fermented soy taste doesn't go well the the basil and shrimp Hope this help 🤗 Many thanks for your video. I wish you a nice weekend

[@julia5459]

Sweet chili sauce pairs well!

[@slym0th]

i hope she sees this!

[@yarawaters4365]

We call it cocktail sauce to the Mayo and ketchup, or in Spain we called it salsa Rosa that translates to pink sauce

[@TheeCuteness]

Me: *Unmotivated,* puttering around the house on a rainy day.🚶🏽‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️ Imamu: Drops a husbento video 💣💥 Me: *Yes! The queen of Husbento is back to grace us with her amazing meals!! Time to start that grocery list and clear out the fridge!* 🏃🏾‍♀️🤸🏾‍♀️ Thanks Imamu! 🥰

[@norainnoflowers1551]

ikr! I love when she adds soups to a lot of her home dishes videos. My mom hates soups so we avoid making it more than once a month unless someone’s sick but I’d love to incorporate more soup variety into my meals since it’s a budget friendly way to fill up and eat healthier

[@morganb4993]

agreed

[@pomodoko]

Imamu, you’re my little cousin’s favorite channel. She’s 2 years old and whenever we wind down for the night, she always asks to watch “cooking”. I don’t let her watch a lot of TV or iPad, so it’s a little treat for her once in a while :)

The way she embraces food fulfills me with warmth. Loving food is precious and I´m happy to see no restrictions.

When you tasted the spring roll with mayo and the music stopped when you went "NO" was absolutely hilarious

[@KittyCat260]

I don't know what I love more about these videos - the amazing recipes, the relaxing ASMR of sizzling and chopping, or the funny little captions and the family meal at the end of the video. The whole thing is just wholesome and like watching a little slice of joy.

[@alexisdaoust4891]

I just found your channel today and I can say for sure that I've watched at least a couple hours worth of your videos already. I'm several hours away from my family at college and your videos have made me feel more at home than I've felt in a while. They're a great way to relax and end my day. Thank you so much for letting us into your life by showing your cooking, home, and family.

[@brojack2693]

I'm a fan of Japanese cooking, I never knew the variety of dishes until I found your channel. They all look so yummy I can't wait to try some of them out myself!

[@TemperedStorm]

The fried stuffed chicken situation featured a "how I fixed this" moment that was educational to those learning to cook. Do you continue to fry or do you use your oven? A dry chicken is better than an unsafe, undercooked one. Thank you for providing teaching moments in your fascinating videos. Your videos are always a joy to watch! 😍

[@a_joyful_noise]

I just wanted to say thank you for making these videos. They really calm my mind and put me in a good head space. Have you ever considered a Patreon, or some way we can support you, Imamu? I'd love to be able to donate someplace for the great content you create!

All the bentos looked good but I especially enjoy seeing your little family enjoying dinner together. お弁当は美味しそうですが一番嬉しいのは三人でごはんを食べているところ。幸せが伝わります。体に気をつけてください。

The amount of love that goes into every detail as you make the lunches for your hubby is just so beautiful 🥺♥️

[@caroljames5154]

I just want to say I really enjoy your videos. I love the fact they are not pretentious and you don’t need to make a home cafe because everyone else is doing it or do the OOTD mirror shots that are of no interest to anyone with a life. Well done. I love to see the recipes as we struggle to get the ingredients in the uk but I try to source them and have a go.

[@leighlyle2304]

Your little girl is probably the most considerate, Kindest and undoubtedly the cutest child ever! I salute and congratulate you both as brilliant parents! Well done - you got it right.

Your recipes are a hit with my family. I'm super pregnant and Korean and Japanese home cooking are the only reason I can eat.

“This person totally forgot about the egg” I love your style, I’m subbing just for that lol

I saw one of your videos where you put seaweed in ramen. I did that today and it totally changed the flavor and makes it more delicious! That’s for the idea 😻

[@moonwhisper624]

Dear Imamu: thank you so much for the shiso/basil tip! I always wanted to make shiso and cheese stuffed tonkatsu, so this was really helpful! I wish you and your family a lovely week 💖

[@hiyanax]

Thank you so much for adding chapters to your videos! So many times I have to go through them to see how you made a specific dish or how you prepared it. The chapter sequences really help. Thank you for always sharing your videos with the rest of us.

When I watch your videos I can't wait to go back into the office to bring some beautiful bento with me! I'm still working from home, so I just practice making bento at home and send pictures to my coworkers to make them jealous :D

[@itsmine78]

Spending my Saturday morning in bed watching Imamu’s video and thinking about why it makes me happy is my version of taking care of my mental health.

[@jenniferatwell9698]

You're so creative with your meals.. That stuffed squash looked so good. Next time, cut just a thin slice off the bottom before stuffing, it'll give it a flat spot so it doesn't fall over. ❤

[@ezra5023]

your videos are my comfort videos before sleep every night. I like to falling asleep while watching them.

[@lainiwakura1776]

Imamu is a pro because she cuts onions the Gordon Ramsey way so it doesn't make her eyes tear up!

[@stephaniefennell7837]

I love these videos! I often remake some of the simplier items when I'm hungry at home. Tip: The squash from Sunday was actually an Acorn Squash, not a Butternut squash.

I love the stuffed squash idea. A small slice off the bottom would probably help it stand up for the oven. Just enough to make it flat.

[@mochimochmoch7686]

I often cook you recipes, they are fun to try and taste great! I also really appreciate the notes you added that we can see when we scroll back and forth when we search for a dish or ingredient. Thank you for this attention to detail, it helps allot. :)

My favorite part is Sunday evenings and seeing your family appreciate and enjoy your cooking!

[@arijackson4592]

I love that you admit when it doesn't taste good. Now I know I can trust you when you say it tastes good! Also it would help a lot if you could edit each bento/meal into its own chapter. That way I can rewatch and find the recipes I'm looking for easier in the future. Because some recipes look delicious and even if I know I'll never make them its nice to watch you make them over and over!
