]]> Whether you put mayo on everything or the very thought of it makes you cringe, this “sheet-like condiment” is sure to make heads turn.

On February 20, Bourbon, a Japanese snack company, announced that their “Mayonnaise Sheets” will hit the shelves on March 2. This shocking news sparked mixed reactions all over social media.

Some people are still on the fence about this idea. “Japan has sliced mayonnaise. I am both grossed out and intrigued,” wrote a Twitter user. 

Others are just flat-out disgusted, adding hashtags such as #nothankyou and #pass to their posts about the product. 

Despite the controversy, some readers can’t wait to test out the slices. A twitter user asked, “Can I do a Kickstarter just to get me as much of this as I can?” 

A few years ago, the same company introduced similar sheets of chocolate ganache, a more reasonable condiment. Although that product didn’t exactly win the hearts of the Japanese people, they hope the mayonnaise sheets will be more successful as a way to introduce consumers to “simple cooking.” The company will release two types of mayo slices: tuna mayonnaise and mayonnaise with mentaiko – a type of spicy fish egg.

]]> If you’re lucky enough to visit Japan, you should definitely taste Japanese cuisine as it offers you an immense variety of foods and flavors. Don’t just stick to the popular sushi or ramen noodles and try to explore something exotic. These are the 3 foods that we recommend you to eat while in Japan.

Soba

If you’re a noodle fan who’s seeking a healthy and elegant meal this is the best option for you. Soba is similar to spaghetti and can be served cold, as a noodle salad with broth-based dipping sauce or as a simple side to a plate of tempura.

Tempura

Tempura is a dish of seafood and vegetables which can be coated in a crisp batter usually made from flour, sesame oil, and ice water and then deep fried. The crispy and crunchy fare is frequently served alongside soba noodles, dipping sauces or shredded cabbage which is the coleslaw of the East.

Tonkatsu

Tonkatsu is similar to tempura, but it’s made from pork. Tonkatsu is cutlet-sized pork loin or tenderloin which is deep -fried and served at counters, train station kiosks and comfort food restaurants across the country.

]]> If you’re a big fan of the Poke bowl, then the chirashi bowl will equally satisfy your food cravings. Chirashi is short for chirashizushi which in Japanese translates to scattered sushi. It’s a curated bowl of raw fish, vegetables and rice, sometimes served with Japanese mayo and always served with a special Chirashi sauce.

This dish is easy to make on your own and is a great way to upgrade your sushi game – think of a sushi salad but with extra sauce and more options!

Ingredients

You won’t need all these ingredients, except the sauce ingredients and the rice you can mix and match veggies and fish according to your needs.

  • 2 1/4 cups Japanese rice
  • 1/2 pound sashimi/sushi-grade tuna soaked in soy sauce for a few minutes
  • mango
  • edamame
  • grated carrots
  • cucumber slices
  • eggs (optional)
  • pickled ginger
  • wakame seaweed
  • sesame seeds
  • Japanese mayo
  • spring onions

For the sauce:

  • 1/4 cup of rice vinegar
  • 2 spoons of brown sugar (or white)
  • salt to season

Bara Chirashi Don at @gorojapcuisine Very fresh sashimi slices in this one. Particularly liked the salmon, which had just the right amount of meat to fat ratio. The miso soup was surprisingly good too, as many Japanese eateries here make meh miso soup. This one on the other hand, was rather flavorful. Service here was very prompt and friendly. You’d feel the warmth and cheerfulness of the staff when they serve you! Only a couple of slight drawbacks here though. I thought it was odd to have crab sticks in a Bara Chirashi Don. I mean, I like crab sticks on their own, but the crab sticks just don’t fit in with the sashimi. That’s just me though, as you might like it. Secondly, while I liked the tobiko, I thought having the bigger ikura instead would elevate its taste and textures to another level. Overall, it’s great to have a place with good Japanese in the hood. It can get quite busy with the lunch crowd, despite them being a relatively new eatery in Holland Drive area. Will be back! . . . #gorojapcuisine #barachirashi #chirashi #melvyneats
