  • 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.

  • Wagashi Mar28
    A very good afternoon, It’s my greatest pleasure to warmly welcome you all to the today’s Japanese sweets, “Wagashi”, workshop. First, I have to say, the word “Wagashi” is composed of “Wa” and “gashi”. “Wa” means “Japanese” and “gashi” means “sweets”. You may know Japanese beef, called as “Wagyu”. “Wa” means “Japanese” and “gyu” is “beef”. So, “Wa-gyu” means “Japanese beef”, and “Wa-gashi” means “Japanese sweets”. For, example, 和楽、和式、和室、和食, all are Japanese ones. So, you learn today “Wa” means Japanese. Japanese cuisine, Washoku, is the world intangible cultural heritage, awarded by the UNESCO in 2013. Since then, a Japanese word, Wagashi as well as Washoku have drastically gained their popularities. OK, let’s start the workshop now. At the outset, I want to emphasize the “Wagashi” must be the typical example to tell what the Japanese culture is. Today, you’ll enjoy watching, tasting and creating a core essence of the Japanese culture, Wagashi. So, what is the core concept of the Wagashi? As the highest aesthetic value of Japanese culture, it has a fundamental sense of refined simplicity in rejection of any gaudiness and any lavishness. It seeks the concept of elegant simplicity. Many Japanese sweets are basically made of only two colors with their gradation, and shaped of simply just a round. But, it outstandingly expresses a concept “elegance”. Before going into the details, I would like to introduce you the variety of Wagashi. There are basically two categories of Wagashi, in light of cooking style as well as moisture contents.

  • What Is the Importance and Role of Food in Modern Japanese Society?
    Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið B.A í Japönsku máli og menningu What is the importance and role of food in modern Japanese society? Why is Japanese food classified as world heritag and what makes Japanese food stand apart from the food culture of other countries? Ritgerð til BA / MA-prófs í Japönsku máli og menningu César Vladimir Rodríguez Cedillo Kt: 040892-5089 Leiðbeinandi: Gunnella Þórgeirsdóttir May 20017 1 Abstract. In Japanese society, a meal goes beyond the food and eating it. It is known that Japanese food was influenced by China and Korea due to the geographical proximity. Traditional food is an important aspect of the culture and it is considered a world heritage. Thus, a traditional meal is not only aiming for the taste, but also aiming to protect the nature and transmit knowledge to future generations. The climate in Japan varies considerably, which allowed each city to develop their own traditional dishes representing the area. This has encouraged culinary tourism, where people travel throughout Japan to experience different flavours. Culinary tourism benefited Japanese culture and economy by supporting local villages and smaller communities. A convenient way to experience dishes from different regions, is by buying ekiben (lunch boxes sold at the train stations) while riding the train from one city to another. Seasonal food is important for society, because the diet is based on each season of the year. To stay healthy throughout the year, Japanese children learn important values and skills such as cooperation, teamwork and responsibility in their school lunches during elementary school. Bento boxes (lunch boxes) influenced, to some extent, the personality of Japanese children either by helping them to socialize easier with their classmates or excluded them out of a group.
