Roasted Purple Sweet Potato and Shio-Kombu Salad

Yaki Imo to Shio-Kombu no Salad

Can’t get enough of donabe roasted purple sweet potatoes! Here’s an ultimate “non-recipe” recipe I make all the time. Super simple and super tasty always. The sweet potato becomes so rich in flavor and creamy texture when roasted in Roast Donabe, and this magical condiment, Shio-Kombu (salt seasoned shredded kelp) totally complements the flavors along with evoo and roasted walnuts. You really don’t need anything else!

Halibut & Daikon Hot Pot

Mizore Nabe

Here’s my healthy seafood hot pot, Halibut Mizore Nabe – Halibut (or your choice of fish) is quickly simmered with vegetables and finished with a generous amount of grated daikon on top. With the addition of the glass noodles, this dish makes a very satisfying one pot donabe meal.

Garlic Black Cod

Super simple and super good. I’ve been making this dish in different kinds of donabe and the dish is always a great success. It’s a sizzling dish of generous amount of garlic etc. and oyster sauce marinated black cod, finished in the oven. Minimum effort is required to execute the dish, so it’s a perfect dish to cook for your guests at a dinner party. And everybody loves it!

The tagine-style donabe , Fukkura-san, with its flat skillet bottom, cooks the ingredients most effectively. Or, you can also use other kinds of donabe (dry-heating capable is preferred), too. For a small serving, I also like to use my compact one-handle donabe , Izakaya Nabe. Happy Donabe Life!

Corn & Hijiki Rice with Olive Oil

This donabe dish is a variation of my other corn rice recipes and has been a big hit! This is 100% vegan and its flavor is really rich with corn, and fresh and aromatic with the addition of the extra virgin olive oil and mixed herbs. This dish makes a great one plate meal and tastes great at a warm or room temperature. Happy Donabe Life!

3-3-3 Corn Salad

Only 3 ingredients, 3 minutes steaming, and 3 steps – this simple “no-recipe” recipe showcases how our donabe steamer, Mushi Nabe can quickly cook the corn and brings out its natural sweetness while retaining its crispness. You can embellish the dish with additional ingredients if you like, but I really love this simplicity and savor the beautiful flavor combo of sweet corn, Yuzu Salt, and olive oil. Perfect appetizer/ side dish for your summer BBQ dinner!

Tofu Shakshuka

Shakshuka, a popular mediterranean dish of baked egg and tomatoes have been one of my favorite breakfast dishes when I go out past years, and at home, I have been enjoying making different versions myself. First of all, my donabe can make the simple and delicious one-pot Shakshuka! Now, my go-to shakshuka is made with tofu, mushrooms, and cherry tomato sauce. You can enjoy with crusty bread, or pour it over roasted sweet potatoes like I usually do. I like to make a large batch to share out of a donabe , or you can transfer to small-size donabe (such as Izakaya Nabe or small Donabe Casserole) to make individual size.

English Peas and Hijiki Quinoa

This is a variation of my donabe rice recipe, English Peas and Hijiki Rice. Instead of rice, I am useing quinoa and mochi mugi barley and cook in vegetable stock in a donabe .To finish, I season simply with salt and pepper, and drizzle good amount of extra virgin olive oil! Feel free to elevate the dish with addition of different herbs or seasonings, if you like. You can serve it on its own or this can also makes a wonderful side dish served with grilled fish, vegetables, etc. I used Bistro Donabe for this dish, but any donabe with enough depth can work for this recipe. Happy Donabe Life!

Rapini in Sesame Karashi Sauce

Rapini (broccoli rabe) has a nice light bitter flavor and makes a good combination with the hot kick of karashi (Japanese mustard). I also add some sesame paste and it tastes really wonderful. This can be served either cold or cool and makes a nice appetizer or a side dish. The sauce is quite versatile, so you can enjoy it with different kinds of vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, etc.
