Soup & Stews Tonjiru & Kasujiru December 11, 2020 / by Junko (日本語の文章は英文の下にあります) Comparing “Tonjiru ” and “Kasujiru” In this episode, the soup of the world that Shihomi will be making is Japanese Tonjiru (miso soup with pork and vegetables)! This is a type of miso soup that is enjoyed by many, and since it contains meat, it is nutritious and can be considered as a side dish. This soup is made in many households, and in this episode we will show you how to bring out the flavor of the vegetables. We also made one using sake lees (Kasujiru), and compared the two types! [ Ingredients ] 100g pork belly (thin slices) 50g potato or satoimo (taro), sweet potato 50g daikon radish 50g carrot 1/2 green onion (use both white and green parts) 1/2 package konjac 1 tsp sesame oil 500ml dashi (Japanese soup stock) 2 tbsp miso (Additional seasoning for Kasujiru) 40g sake lees 1 tsp soy sauce ——————– 豚汁 & 粕汁 今回しほみんに作ってもらう世界のスープは、我らが日本の豚汁です! みんな好きですよね。私も大好き。栄養バランスもすごく良いので、おかずを作るのが面倒な時は豚汁をたくさん作って、これとご飯ですませちゃいます。 家庭でよく作られるお汁ですが、今日は野菜の甘さをぐっと引き出す美味しい豚汁の作り方の紹介と、酒粕を使った豚汁も作って、飲み比べてみました! ※日本語のレシピはYoutubeの概要欄でご確認ください。 Junko There are so many Japanese dishes and cultures that are not well known outside of Japan and I’m happy to introduce them to you!
