Thank you for posting this recipe. I had lost the recipe a friend had given me so was very glad to see this. It's delicious. My whole family enjoys it.
That's my pleasure!
i love how you said you hope everyone understands true japanese culture! I have always loved the real japanese culture. As a child, while my friends were watching anime, i read about zen buddhism, the tokugawa shogunate, and the art of tea ceremony, etc.
