Yoshinojiru (Japanese Chicken and Vegetable Thick Warm Soup Recipe) 吉野汁 (学校給食レシピ) | OCHIKERON

I recreated elementary school lunch soup dish because kids loved it 😋
Yoshinojiru is the local soup dish in Nara prefecture. It is the soup thickened with starch and served at schools nationwide. Mt. Yoshino in Nara prefecture is the production area of Kuzu (arrowroot starch). Kuzu is pretty expensive, so most people here use corn/potato starch instead.

Some people might be critical of you using frozen vegetables and dashi powder, but I like to see what shortcuts home cooks use in Japan to make cooking easier. We're not running a restaurant. 😊 This recipe sounds delicious.

[@ochikeron]

Exactly! I think parents these days in Japan are extremely busy. Also, my mom and grandma's generation cook a lot at home from scratch but my generation tend to buy at stores because there are so many ready made dishes. BTW, school lunch never uses frozen vegetables 😅At my daughter's school, they use local fresh vegetables and make everything from scratch. Something parents at home cannot do is supported at school👍Anyway, I used to live in NY and found it very difficult to get fresh Japanese vegetables, so the frozen vegetables were really helpful ❤

I used to watch you all the time when I was younger (like 12 to 13) I’m 22 now and living alone for college, and I find myself cooking stuffed bell peppers. You and your recipes still hold a special place in my heart.

Oh wow, this looks and sounds like such a hearty dish. I was looking for a new soup to try this fall. I love your recipes and how easy they are when you explain them. Have you been enjoying fall with your family Ochikeron? ❤️

[@ochikeron]

Thanks so much :) I know it sounds new but it is obviously a regular dish here in Japan nationwide! (I knew it after having kids!)

Hello Ochikeron! I would like to make this soup. We do not have frozen vegetables for tonjiru here. What vegetables should I add to the soup? Thank you for your video and recipe. It looks delicious!
