Episode Title: Authentic Japanese Cooking: Unohana-ni (Simmered Okara)

Air Date: 2018-06-01

Overview:

Our theme for this episode is simmering. Okara is a byproduct of making tofu, an iconic Japanese ingredient. We'll be using okara and plenty of dashi, simmered together to make the popular dish unohana-ni. By adding richly flavorful ingredients to the bland okara, we can make a healthy and delicious side that goes perfectly with rice. We'll also be making roasted teriyaki chicken wings — a quick and easy dish to prepare while the unohana-ni simmers!
