Carme works as the Director of Nipponia, a private language center specialized in Japanese language and culture in the town of Girona (Spain). The center sent encouraging messages and smiling pictures to our friends at Miyagi Prefecture on the first anniversary of the 2011 tsunami, to let them know that we remember, we are thinking of them and wishing a fast recovery of the affected area.

More than 100 people participated in the Senbazuru activity in 2011 and donated money in Girona. About the news we received in May 2012: one ex PY involved and a couple of ex JPYs. Hanging the Senbazuru in another center probably allowed more people in the affected area to see it and thus to be beneficiaries of this activity. Please write a summary After the 2011 tsunami Nipponia organized a fundraising activity that of the event allowed to send about 1,700 EUR (200,200 Japanese Yen) to the Japanese Red Cross. At the same time, participants made Senbazuru (origami cranes) with encouraging messages for the victims of the tsunami. Our Senbazuru were first placed at a welfare evacuation center in Miyagi, as can be seen in the pictures. On May 28th 2012, we received news from Naoko-san and Milky-san saying that our Senbazuru had been relocated from the evacuation center to one of the meeting places in a temporary housing area in Miyagi. The following message explains that: Date: Mon, 28 May 2012 23:13:15 +0900 Dear Carme, Hola! How have you been? I can see you are always active and positive through Facebook :) Milky chan (Ms. Miyuki ISE) sent me these photos attached to show you and your students. And today I'll be her translator^^ She's sorry that she couldn't get back to you earlier, but she's sent this info to the whole IYEO mailing list, too, as the part of Miyagi IYEO's report on disaster relief activities. Your senbazuru 1,000 cranes were delivered and decorated in July last year in the "welfare evacuation center" where all the victims who need nursing care evacuated. The center was a former gym located 40 minutes drive away from the coast area. There, medical staff from Ishinomaki municipal hospital served around the clock. (One of the Miyagi IYEO members work as a nurse at the hospital and this hospital has been one of the main organizations Miyagi IYEO is supporting). This evacuation center was closed last December and it seems that the cranes were translocated to one of the meeting places of the temporary housing area where nurses go the round.

  • Washoku Guidebook(PDF : 3629KB)
    和 食 Traditional Dietary Cultures of the Japanese Itadaki-masu WASHOKU - cultures that should be preserved What exactly is WASHOKU? Maybe even Japanese people haven’t thought seriously about it very much. Typical washoku at home is usually comprised of cooked rice, miso soup, some main and side dishes and pickles. A set menu of grilled fish at a downtown diner is also a type of washoku. Recipes using cooked rice as the main ingredient such as curry and rice or sushi should also be considered as a type of washoku. Of course, washoku includes some noodle and mochi dishes. The world of traditional washoku is extensive. In the first place, the term WASHOKU does not refer solely to a dish or a cuisine. For instance, let’s take a look at osechi- ryori, a set of traditional dishes for New Year. The dishes are prepared to celebrate the coming of the new year, and with a wish to be able to spend the coming year soundly and happily. In other words, the religion and the mindset of Japanese people are expressed in osechi-ryori, otoso (rice wine for New Year) and ozohni (soup with mochi), as well as the ambience of the people sitting around the table with these dishes. Food culture has been developed with the background of the natural environment surrounding people and culture that is unique to the country or the region. The Japanese archipelago runs widely north and south, surrounded by sea. 75% of the national land is mountainous areas. Under the monsoonal climate, the four seasons show distinct differences.

  • BASIC STOCK “DASHI” Dashi Or Basic Stock Plays a Fundamental Role in Simmered Dishes, Soups and Other Japanese Cuisine, Ultimately Determining Their Flavors
    BASIC STOCK “DASHI” Dashi or basic stock plays a fundamental role in simmered dishes, soups and other Japanese cuisine, ultimately determining their flavors. This tasty stock will greatly enhance the overall taste of food and by learning how to prepare it, cooking Japanese food will become more fun. PREPARATION: 2000ml water Warm up the water, just before boiling add: 40g kombu algae (previously soaked in cold water for 2-4hrs) When the water boils, add: 60g dried Shiitake mushrooms/Bonito flakes MISO SOUP WITH EGGPLANT “MISO SHIRU” Miso soup is an integral part of Japanese cuisine. Properly prepared dashi is the crucial element in miso soup. 1. Cut eggplant and leek into bite-sized pieces (soak eggplant in cold water first for few minutes to eliminate the bitterness). 2. Prepare dashi. 3. Cook dashi in middle-high temperature. Add eggplant and lower the temperature just before boiling. Gradually add miso paste and stir lightly. Add leek. Serve in small bowls. Instead of eggplant, other types of vegetables can be used in miso soup such as spinach, onion, cale, wakame algae or classic Japanese tofu. Taste of miso paste differs from brand to brand – some miso pastes are more salty and assertive in taste so it is necessary to taste the miso paste before preparation. INGREDIENTS -2 eggplants -1200ml dashi -90 g miso paste -leek “TEMPURA” Tempura is a Japanese dish of seafood or vegetables that have been battered and deep fried. 1. Prepare sauce – Cook soy sauce, mirin and sake (medium heat) for several minutes. Remove the heads of the shrimps, shell and devein but leave the tails attached.

    Foreword Cancer patients and their families are forced to experience a variety of anxieties and burdens during cancer treatment. In 2003, the “Joint Study Group on the Sociology of Cancer” conducted “The Research into the Anxieties and Burdens of Cancer Sufferers” and clarified some of these anxieties and burdens. The interim report on the survey was published, entitled “The Views of 7,885 People Who Faced Cancer” which is also available on the website of Shizuoka Cancer Center. (http://www.scchr.jp/) In order to alleviate various anxieties and burdens, the Joint Study Group has also worked on booklets about solutions based on the views of patients and their families. This booklet is the 3 rd edition. The survey dealt with the anxieties about “symptoms, side­effects and after­effects” which was ranked second among the anxieties and burdens of patients. Side­effects and after­effects in daily live (diet, excretions, etc.), which patients and their families constantly struggle face and cope with by themselves, will cause severe stress along with other anxieties which they already deal with. While books about diet after surgery are easily available in bookstores, few books focus on “diet” which suits a variety of symptoms caused by anti­cancer drugs and irradiation therapy. Thus, the 3 rd edition discusses dietary problems caused by anti­cancer drugs and irradiation therapy in order to provide patients and their families with useful daily information including menus. On making this book, we brought in nutrition and meal consultants for patients and their families from the staff members of Shizuoka Cancer Center nutrition room and used support examples from the nutrition room when patients had an eating problem.
