Japanese Food!

Hello again! This is How unique Japan!

In this section, I would love to introduce “Japanese food!” as many kinds as I could! So, there is no doubt that Japan has so many unique kinds of food that are definitely worth trying!

BTW, why does Japan have those? In the front page, I have already written about the reason a little. There are 2 reasons.

First, the Japanese main product is vegetables. Eating any meat (except fish) was forbidden for so long by religion (Buddhism). Thus, our main food became rice and them.

 However, Japan is just a long island from North to South. That means, the products that citizens can safely grow are differed because of the weather and soil conditions in each area. For example, around the North part, they can have “Daikon (Japanese white radish)”, and “Potato”, because they are just tough for coldness.

 And around the South part, they can have “Eggplant”,” Tomato” or “Green soy beans”. So, that is why each area created original and unique menu based on such a featured product. (All of them are just few examples).

 Besides, such a long island also creates rich 4 seasons. They have been impressing All Japanese with such a nature beauty. Thus, many traditional / ancient artists, dancers, even chefs always try to express those. This is the second reason.

“Wagashi (Japanese traditional sweets)” is a good example. This one above expresses the flowers blooming on the Spring in Japan.

By those reasons, Japan has successfully created many kinds of vegetables (food) and also, menus from them.

 Then, let’s take a look how many articles about Japanese food there!
