#13 - Yaki Onigiri

Yaki Onigiri are grilled rice balls. They are grilled on a wire grill until crispy, then brushed with soy sauce or miso. Yaki Onigiri are the best served hot! Usual onigiri have fillings such as a little umeboshi or flaked salmon, while yaki onigiri usuallly don't have any fillings.

Yummy x 2!!

#9 - Tsukemono

Tsukemono (漬物, literally "pickled things") are Japanese pickles. They are served with rice as an accompaniment to or garnish for meals.

Mustard Tsukemono (Eggplant)

The most common kinds of tsukemono are pickled in salt or brine. The Japanese "pickles" are in fact "preserved vegetables" and not "pickles". Soy sauce, miso, vinegar, rice bran (nuka), and sake lees (sake kasu) are also useful for pickling.

Cucumber Tsukemono

Takuan (daikon radish), umeboshi (ume plum), turnip, cucumber, and Chinese cabbage are among the favorites to be eaten with rice as an accompaniment to a meal.

Takuan (Radish Tsukemono)

Traditionally, the Japanese prepared tsukemono themselves. Pickling was one of the fundamental ways to preserve food. Nowadays, tsukemono can be readily bought in a supermarket, but despite this many Japanese still make their own. 

Kyoto has its own vegetables, called Kyo-vegetables, and the tsukemono is also famous not only for local people but also for tourists. For example..........

I love Tsukemono!

#5 - Natto & RAW Egg

Nattō is a traditional Japanese food made from soybeans FERMENTED with Bacillus subtilis. It is rich in protein, and  very popular especially as a breakfast food.

It is typically eaten on rice. Yummy x 2 (to me)!!!

Nattō can be an acquired taste because of its powerful smell (like DIRTY SOCKS), strong flavor, and slippery texture.

Some people mix natto with RAW egg.

I love it!

#2 - Sukiyaki & RAW Eggs

Sukiyaki is a Japanese dish.
It consists of meat (usually thinly sliced beef) which is slowly cooked or simmered at the table, alongside vegetables and other ingredients, in a shallow iron pot in a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, and sake.

Before being eaten, the ingredients are usually dipped in a small bowl of RAW, beaten eggs.
Sounds delicious to me!
