How To Make Takikomi Gohan (Recipe) 炊き込みご飯の作り方（レシピ）

[@anzuki-chan]

hello! you may not read this, but I am so grateful for you recipe channel/website. my mother is from the countryside of Japan, and growing up she always cooked Japanese food at home. She is no longer around to show me these recipes, a few I remember from helping her in the kitchen but many I do not remember. I will be a first-time mother in December, and I want to make the same foods my mom made for me, when my baby can start enjoying solid food. your cooking channel has made that possible for me and I am truly so thankful. I wish you the best and thank you again!

[@poppy6635]

How’s your baby doing?

[@nicholamach]

I lived in Japan for 3 years as a teenager and watching your videos bring back great memories. I miss the food and people so much bit thanks for allowing me to bring the flavors of Japan home!

[@justonecookbook]

Aww thank you for watching my videos! I hope you had great 3 years of living in Japan! Living is different from traveling and I'm glad you got to experience going to school etc. :)

[@lysismoonlight5513]

I love takikomi gohan, so easy and tasty and nutritious. I made a variation of this recipe today using parsnip instead of gobo. It tasted very good. Thank you!

[@littlestbroccoli]

I miss all the homey gobo-rice mixed dishes from my year in Japan. It was so filling and better for my digestion. And tasted amazing ❤

[@jazcat6822]

With Mother’s Day coming, I was thinking of my Mom and the food she used to make. This was one of those. Now I have an idea how to make. Thank you!

[@ikhinh1985]

ごま油を少し入れておけば、さらに美味しいものになりますよ。 If you add a bit of sesame oil to the rice cooker before cooking, it’ll become very fragrant and flavourful. 😋

I'm cooking this for dinner tonight. It is so delicious!! Thank you so much for sharing such an authentic recipe with us!!

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you for trying it! I am always happy to help people experience the joy of Japanese cooking! 🥰

[@yukoshima7885]

@@justonecookbook Honestly, my daughter first started following your cookbook about 4 years ago. She is born in America but cooked really authentic Japanese food I never even cooked myself, so I started to follow your cookbook too. My daughter cooks your recipes from time to time, and last night she prepared special kind of boiled egg, flavored with heavy soy sauce out on the shell. I want to say hi to you from my daughter. Thank you!!

[@bingrod6047]

I love gobo rice. Takikomi❤

[@p-mchoo8806]

Greeting from Bangkok. I enjoy watching your cooking, brief and clear. I will try one day, especially prickled veggies and many more.

[@cm3655]

I tried your ginger rice recipe which is like this and it was so good! Btw, maybe add a note @3:29 to remind people to save the mushroom stock or they might just drain it down the sink lol!!

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you for your great suggestion! The direction is in the recipe, but we forgot to add in the video. I added annotation to the video, but maybe it might not show when you see from mobile phone...

[@Fighter_Telang1389]

I note about the mushroom stock and keep on wondering about the stock being save. How I like mushroom stock and you save me the day. Thks for the sharing.

[@TelekineticKhai]

Thank you SO MUCH for these incredibly concise, easy to understand video instructions! I am moving to Japan very soon for studies and wondering how will I get by with home cooking using Japanese ingredients - plus I am a beginner in home cooking, so these recipes will surely make life easier! :) Not to mention I plan on getting a Zojirushi rice cooker so knowing these are made using one gives me much confidence :)

[@justonecookbook]

You're moving to Japan! SO NICE!!! I hope you enjoy your new life in Japan! You won't have any issue finding ingredients to cook Japanese food. :)

Hi Nami Of course i subscribe i'm a peruvian chef, that studied japanese cuisine for my specialty. I admire your recipes and style. thanks for share :)

[@supra9532]

Hopefully my local Asian market has some of these ingredients ...I would like to cook this dish😀.... Nice hair style you look very nice☺️

[@justonecookbook]

The ingredients don't have to be exactly this. I wrote more information about this dish and other ingredients you can use in my blog post. :) Thank you for your kind words!

[@FransiscaAdis]

Hello! Thank you for this recipe. I tried this and it turned out very delicious! But I have a little problem. I live alone so I ended up with leftover takikomi gohan. I can't finish all by myself in one day. Is there any good way to keep takikomi gohan? Is it okay to freeze it in freezer? thank you!

[@gesundheited]

Knife Skills! Making this tomorrow - thank you !

[@Shokupan982]

I just had takikomi gohan last week, but I've never tried making it myself. Thanks for the recipe!

[@justonecookbook]

You're welcome! Hope you enjoy making this at home!

[@LaBucci]

Can you make a Japanese Fried Rice recipe? I recently went to a Japanese ramen place and with our bowl came this very delicious set of fried rice which to me had pork or chicken? With egg in it and the rice looked brown but it was the best flavored rice I’ve ever had and i think it might of had some sort of root or seaweed in it

[@Money_Enterprises]

I just fell in Love!

[@nancyrefki]

I made this recipe and amazing result!!! Thank you!!

[@patriciaaraujo3427]

本当に美味しそう！😋

[@DianaTW]

Is it possible to do this using very basic rice cooker? Mine only has an on off switch lol.

[@justonecookbook]

I think so, even though I don't own one...

[@Javer80]

It should be OK, but you should check the rice occasionally to make sure the liquid is absorbing properly. If the liquid is gone but the rice is not yet cooked through/fluffy, add more dashi (or water-dashi mix). Try to get it at the bottom without disturbing the layer of ingredients on top. :) Otherwise the bottom of the rice may burn and become hard to scoop. Then again, some people like that flavor.

[@DianaTW]

Javer80 Thanks! I'll try that :)

[@mariannel6560]

I love that rice container, where did you get it at?

[@sashimizee1484]

Looks very delicious, but only practical if you live in an area where the Japanese ingredients mentioned are available.

[@marktimanovsky5348]

Hi, great video. Just one question. Why did you use dried shiitake mushrooms, as opposed to the regular variety? Is it that they have a different texture or flavor? Thanks!

[@marlowmorbid8531]

Mark Timanovsky it was so that she could use the water the mushrooms soaked in for cooking the rice

[@justonecookbook]

Hi Mark! Marlow is correct. Also, dried shiitake mushrooms have much more flavors than fresh shiitake. For example, if someone is not a fan of shiitake, fresh mushroom has less flavor and fragrance, so it's a better choice. :) For those who use fresh shiitake, don't worry about shiitake dashi not in the liquid. BUT make sure to add the whole 1 ½ cup (350 ml) dashi. :)

[@gaialo]

There's honestly nothing cuter than the いただきま～す！ at the end of the recipe. Lovely channel!　ありがとうね！

Looks delicious but where to get burdock root and konnnyaku (whatever that is? )

[@rankoyokoyama4697]

Hi, If I don't have a Rice cooker for how much time should I cook the rice with all the ingredients?

[@justonecookbook]

Please follow the same instruction here (recipe/video): www.justonecookbook.com/how-to-cook-rice/

[@rankoyokoyama4697]

Thank you!!!

[@moorfang]

Amazing. Looks so hearty.

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you so much!

[@prodsegi]

Can I use non-alcoholic mirin? As I don't want alcohol in my household. Will it still taste good?

[@justonecookbook]

Sure! :)

[@flueberly]

there is non alcoholic mirin out there too i'm sure :) like, pre-heated so the alcohol is already gone.

[@clenelyn]

looks so good. is there anything i can replace the burdock root with?

[@azeenanj9185]

ginger? I don't know the taste of burdock root but it looks like it could work

[@jea-seo1333]

parsnip is a good substitute, if you are in the US you should be able to find it in grocery stores

[@clenelyn]

thank you guys! i think i'll try both

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you for your suggestion, Sakina and Ja! I'd say root vegetables are good choice. Lotus root is one of my favorite!

[@juandenz2008]

I love burdock root !! But it is really hard to find where I live :-(

[@declairelegenou]

I will try to make this as I have the exact same rice cooker as yours!! (maybe without Gobo because I can never find it). Thanks for the recipe.

[@justonecookbook]

Hope you enjoy the recipe!

[@AubreyAngeles]

This looks really yummy, Nami!

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you Aubrey! :)

[@doggo_87__60]

I tried this recipee last week but the middle of rice is slightly undercook. Is it because I use local rice, not japanese rice. Or should I add more stock if I put lots of ingredients?

[@justonecookbook]

Hmmm did you use a rice cooker? The difference in rice could be the reason, but it can be other reason too... it's hard to know what went wrong without getting more information.. Thank you for trying my recipe!

[@doggo_87__60]

Just One Cookbook I use a ricecooker. Just remembered I didnt soak the rice b4 I cooked it, it still taste good tho😆 thk u for the reply

[@justonecookbook]

ah, I think that's why. Always soak Japanese rice at least 15-20 minutes (30 mins preferably). That way, water content inside the kernel is higher and it becomes fluffier rice. :)

[@thecuttingsark5094]

Will an instant pot cook this the same?

[@53Aubergine]

To make this vegetarian one must also omit the bonito dashi. Is there a substitution you might recommend?

[@ninellepankov3916]

I think using kombu seaweed to make the broth would work just as well! (^^) b

[@MiFlojo]

Can i use black rice?

[@akunrandom2638]

Gyomei himejima love this food

[@susancarr9955]

Could you do a video of this using the Instant Pot?

[@justonecookbook]

Hi Susan! IP can be a rice cooker, but I've heard from JOC readers that rice sticks to the inner pot. Japanese rice is more sticky than other varieties of rice, and since it's more expensive as well, I don't plan to waste my rice cooking in the IP... I'm so sorry I can't share the rice recipe... maybe other types of rice might be better than Japanese short grain rice.

[@susancarr9955]

Just One Cookbook I tried this recipe in my simple rice cooker and it didn't work so I had to finish it on the stove. It was very tasty though.

[@justonecookbook]

Hmm what do you think was the problem? It had too much water or too less water? Did you put about the same amount of ingredients (non rice ingredients) like mine?

[@susancarr9955]

Just One Cookbook I think my rice pot was just too small. It would try to cook, but then go to warm. Cheap Brands Mart pot until I could buy my multi-cooker. I am loving my Instant Pot.

[@justonecookbook]

Ah I see. I've never used instant pot for my precious rice (It's a Japanese thing not to waste a single grain of rice...), but you might actually make better rice in IP. If the rice sticks at the bottom, make porridge with the leftover rice so it'll be no waste. ;)

[@benedictlim3344]

Hi, my rice cooker is a simple rice cooker , it doesn't have the mixed rice feature, can I make this recipe using regular rice cooker?

[@justonecookbook]

Yes you can. :)

[@chiVinhPT]

Yum! I'm gonna make this tonight :) How long can I keep this in the fridge though?

[@justonecookbook]

+chiVinhPT I recommend freezing, and microwave or steamer to re heat. Refrigerator just make rice hard

What happens if I use long-grain??

[@ji94552]

sxnkxnrxck Not as sticky but it'll still work. It'll be like an Asian version of rice pilaf.

[@justonecookbook]

Long grain rice is not as sticky as Japanese short grain rice. :) You know how rice is stick to each other when you see sushi rolls? Long grain rice are great for fried rice etc. :)
