No explanation needed, it’s beyond delicious 👏🏻😋 Mayo Ginger Soy Sauce Chicken

You’ve probably noticed I used the same mixture to marinate salmon in previous meals;
And you might’ve noticed I made this dish last time in a pot, and today I switched using a pan. Indeed, just to show you how good it is and how often I actually make it 😀✌🏻

Grated ginger + Kewpie mayo + soy sauce; I never thought this combination would elevate meat or seafood that much. The umami is something unique!!. 👌🏻👍🏻

Caramelized mayo, ginger, soy sauce stuck to the pan + shio kombu + chicken juices, everything ends up in the rice. That’s the real gold 🔥😋

The 10-minute “sauna” isn’t for the chicken, it’s for the rice to absorb it all. The chicken stays just as juicy, and never loses its yumminess. That’s the move. 👌🏻

👉🏻 Main:
Chicken thigh 1 pcs, about 200g
Grated ginger about 1 tbsp
Mayonnaise 1 tbsp (Kewpie)
Soy sauce 1 tsp (Lee K*m Kee)

👉🏻 Rice pan base:
Soaked rice, about 1 cup
Shio kombu, about 1 tsp
Water, about ½ cup

👉🏻 Finish:
Fresh chopped green onions + toasted sesame seeds + togarashi (S&B)

NOTE:
[ ] Soak the rice at least 30 mins before cooking

[ ] The key to making great claypot-style rice, whether in a traditional pot, in a rice cooker, or in a non-stick pan is to avoid using too much water!. Just use about ½ the usual amount of water is enough. Since the rice has been soaked, it has already absorbed some moisture!.👌🏻

I’ve been crafting flavors for 20 years straight like no days off.

Then you ask, ‘how old are you?’
I’m knocking on 45, but my mirror keeps showing 25 😌✌🏻

Chicken, fish, veggie smoothies, fruit, a peaceful mind, a good fortune, zero chaos, good vibes only. That’s my anti-aging recipe.

And somehow, people still trying to teach me how to use mayo, kitchen scissors, a non-stick pan, and a silicone spatula 😂🤣 what a joke!!.

All your extra talk? Just seasoning,spices and garnish.
If you’re not enjoying life, you’re basically eating plain rice ✌🏻

Pour all the prawns and clams into a steamer. This is a secret method passed down by old fishermen by the sea. No boiling is required, and the prawns and clams come out springy and smooth.

Yakult Char Siu Pork

🍳 Recipe & Method
Ingredients:
2 pieces of pork shoulder
2 bottles of Yakult
1 bottle of water
Soy sauce – same amount as one bottle of Yakult (about 65ml)

Instructions:
1. Pan-fry the pork over low heat until golden on both sides.
2. Add Yakult, soy sauce, and water (use Yakult bottles for measurement).
3. Bring to a gentle boil, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
4. Remove the lid and cook on high heat until the sauce thickens.

The result is tender, fragrant pork infused with a hint of Yakult sweetness — a perfect balance of savory and gentle milky aroma.

A bite of warm, caramelized pork wrapped in the gentle sweetness of Yakult — the taste of comfort on a quiet afternoon.
Serve it in Minocraft’s handmade tableware and bring a touch of Japanese warmth to your home dining moments.

📌 3 tbsp cornflour (cornstarch)
