JFB: The Japanese Foods Blog

This blog is mainly about japanese foods (which I happen to love) and happened to love even more when I lived in tokyo for about 4 months. It also contains some non-japanese foods. We cooked some of the foods. Some of the foods we didn't cook. This blog also contains some stuff about travel as it pertains to foods. Some of the pictures were taken with a decent camera. Many of the pictures were taken with a crappy cellphone camera. You get the idea.

Our own cooking style is very ad hoc and we tend to stick to simple stuff. I've put pseduo-recipes where I think it's warranted. If you want more recipes you can contact me and I'll try to remember. Most of this stuff was oishii (deeelicious) unless otherwise noted.

This was our bait, small ebi (shrimp) some of which was still in big frozen blocks. We were provided with professional rod and reels with the weirdest bait contraption I’ve yet seen. At the end of the fishing line was a red lantern thing which you filled with the bait and which had holes at the bottom to let the bait flow out of it. Attached to the lantern thing was a heavy sinker and another line with two hooks, which we also baited with the shrimp. You can see the setup in some of the pictures.
