Hello, I am Yoshi from NILS Japanese language school. Today’s topic is food in Japan.
Traditional Japanese home cooking includes rice and a couple of dishes such as baked fish or cooked vegitables with miso soup and some pickles. Most people eat rice as a staple food at least twice a day and use products made from soy beans such as tofu 豆腐, shoyu 醤油 or miso 味噌. But today, the Japanese diet is more varied than ever. It is influenced by Western, Chinese, Indian, and other styles of food, which are particularly popular among young generations and families with children.
