The menu is simple and unassuming, one of our favorite is their fried rice dishes, this mushroom seaweed being one of them. Its addictive and what I could describe only as hug-in-a-bowl. To satisfy my frequent cravings for this rice dish I made my own version ( I frequently recreate my own version of food I love in restaurants, one of my favorite ways of experimenting new recipes too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This homemade recipe features furikake, sesame oil that adds an interesting layer of complexity, its further bolstered with wholegrain sprouted GABA rice, mushrooms carrots, optional protein and extra veggies such as broccoli and tofu can also be added for a substantial meal. An aromatic mix of Shoyu, furikake, mirin, garlic, and ginger creates the most\u00a0dynamic umami rich\u00a0flavor. We also love this as a side to grilled chicken, seared tuna fish salmon or tofu. Its delicious on its own with a few extra veggies like edamame, green beans, broccoli for lunch.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div

class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ingredients\">Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>RICE:<\/strong> I used GABA rice(pictured)  that I picked in my local Japanese market. Its a wholegrain sprouted rice grain that is deliciously chewy and cooks like brown rice. Any short brown rice will work. If brown rice in not your thing short grain white rice works in this recipe. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mushrooms:<\/strong>&nbsp;I prefer&nbsp;<strong>shiitake<\/strong>&nbsp;over other varieties of mushrooms in this recipe for their meaty texture and low moisture levels. Alternatively, you can use cremini or any other mushroom variety you have on hand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Aromatics:<\/strong>&nbsp;Fresh&nbsp;ginger, garlic, and<strong> <\/strong>green onions are musts for bolstering flavor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sesame oil<\/strong>: A Japanese staple to add massive depth of flavor, another aromatic essential to add big bold flavor. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Furikake:<\/strong>&nbsp;A blend of seaweed and dual colored sesame seeds. This is a must to add and totally change the profile of the rice. I used Trader Joes furikake. Amazon, Wholefoods, well stocked grocery stores and of course Asian markets are well stocked with furikake. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Protein<\/strong>: Tofu, edamame, shrimp, a little chicken will add the protein component to the fried rice for a complete meal. I didn&#8217;t ad on this ocassion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Shoyu or soy Sauce:<\/strong>&nbsp;I suggest using a&nbsp;<strong>low-sodium and Japanese variety Shoyu or soy sauce<\/strong>, personally I think its better quality and normally has fewer additives.
