  1. Japanese Food 日本 の しょく

  2. いただきます(Said at start of meal) テーブルマナー • Most table manners that we try to abide by here in the west usually apply in Japan, for example, blowing your nose or burping. One thing that is different is that most Japanese dishes are eaten with chopsticks. The proper use of them is the most fundamental element in table manners. Some important rules to follow when using chopsticks:

  3. Hold chopsticks at end • When you are not using them, put them on the table with tips facing left • Do not spear food with chopsticks • Do not point your chopsticks • Do not wave your chopsticks in the air or play with them • Tear apart food with chopsticks, not fingers

  4. Spoons, made of wood, plastic or porcelain, are used to eat soups like Miso Soup, which is made of a stock called Dashi with tofu and green onions.

  5. Breakfastあさごはん • A traditional Japanese breakfast is based on rice, seafood, and fermented foods. This combo does not differ too much from lunch and dinner, except for certain dishes like natto, (a type of fermented soybeans) which are most popularly eaten for breakfast.

  6. An example of a breakfast that you would get at a restaurant would be miso soup, rice with nori (edible seaweed), natto, rice porridge, grilled fish, raw egg, and a pickled vegetable.

  7. last evening's dinner leftovers are usually eaten for breakfast. • Japan has also infused the West into their modern breakfast by serving toast and boiled or fried eggs as a common breakfast. Cereals are also popular.

  8. Typical drinks for breakfast are green tea and puree, which are fruit or veggies that have been ground into thick liquid. Green tea flavour has inspired other things like candy bars and ice cream.

  9. Lunchひるごはん • An Obento, meaning boxed lunch, are very popular in Japan for lunch. You can easily pack one with your favourite foods and take it to work or school, like we do with what we call a bagged lunch here.

  10. A typical obento that you would get at a restaurant usually consists of rice, assorted tempura, sashimi, maki, pickled or cooked vegetable , and cooked chicken or beef over noodles with a sauce. You may also see nigiri or temaki.

  11. Kyaraben • There are contests in Japan to see who can design the most beautiful obento. These are called Kyaraben and mean “character obento” because they usually have to look like some creature.

  12. Dinner ばんごはん • Similar to lunch, a Japanese dinner usually has rice, fish, and veggies. This is a very healthy combo, in fact, the Japanese have the longest average life span because of it.

  13. Sake, which is rice wine, can be drank for dinner or lunch. It is served hot in the winter, and chilled in the summer. Kirin beer is popular.

  14. Dessert: Anmitsu • Anmitsu is made of small cubes of agar jelly served with azuki bean paste or anko, boiled peas, and fruits.
