Simple Fried Okra

Vegetarian Chili

I attempted to make a vegetarian chili by referencing a recipe that my husband found. You can use any kind of vegetables. I recommend keeping the kidney beans, corn, mushrooms, and onions, but the rest of the vegetables can be varied. Throw in many kinds of leftover vegetables! Recipe by popo

Kamaboko Flowers Using a Vegetable Peeler

I made flowers with thin strips of peeler-sliced kamaboko. It's fun to bend and shape kamaboko because it doesn't break easily. Half-width strips make smaller flowers and seem to look more authentic. Have fun experimenting with kamaboko's capabilities. Recipe by Mikki-an

Japanese Tabbouleh with Mixed Grains

I had a lot of millet which was originally for cooking with rice. I cooked the millet and I thought it looked just like cous cous. I made a marinade and checked the taste. When marinated, it was exactly like tabbouleh! The salad is very tasty already with lemon juice and olive oil, but I added a little soy sauce. Cooking time of mixed grains: Kibi-mochi for 5 minutes, amaranth for 8 minutes and quinoa for 10 minutes. You can freeze the leftovers. Check the taste before serving. Adjust with herb salt or plain salt. If you don't have a cake ring, put the salad in a small bowl. Recipe by kebeibiko

Pizza-Bacon Pain d'Epi & Sausage Pain d'Epi

I turned my favorite pizza bread and sausage bread into pain d'epi (wheat stalk shaped bread) with just a little effort. They look quite elegant, and make great gifts. Try making this with sesame dough too. Give this a try too, "Fragrant crispy Chikuwa Pain d'Epi". Use anything you like to fill the dough♪ When forming the dough in Step 7, if you have sauce or ketchup on the dough it won't stick together properly, so be careful. Turn the kitchen scissors on their side, and cut the dough in one go leaving just the bottom dough connected! I like this bread well baked. Please adjust the rising and baking time depending on your oven. For 6 "stalks" of bread. Recipe by Youtank

Potato Salad with Greek-Style Yogurt

Potato Salad is usually made with plain yogurt or mayonnaise but I decided to give Greek-style yogurt a try this time. It resulted in a smooth and zesty potato salad. Please adjust the cooking time so that the potatoes turn out neither too hard nor too soft. Cut the ingredients to the same size and you'll achieve a better looking potato salad. Please try flavouring this salad to your taste. It's handy to make this in advance and stock in the fridge. Recipe by violets

Beef Enchiladas

Delicious!

Apple Cardamom Pound Cake- low histamine, gluten free, dairy-free, vegan, corn free

My baby boy wanted an apple cake for his birthday, and cardamom is more suitable for his low-histamine diet than cinnamon, so voilà! It is a pleasant autumn flavor that nods to the season almost upon us. The dense cake is full of juicy apple chunks and it is so enjoyable to eat warm with the sweet maple cream icing mixing with the vanilla frozen dessert. As for the decorations....my 4 year old wanted a space theme (obviously) but rejected the number 4 for a 100 atop his cake because that is his favorite number. My husband pointed out, however, that 100 still represents the number 4 in binary language. So, it works, I guess 😳! Tip: If you want the cake to retain the softness it comes out the oven with, seal in the moisture by covering every inch of it in the maple cream icing and leave at room temperature on the day of serving at a party. Since we are following a low histamine diet for health reasons, we throw the cake (what is left after immediately eating) into the freezer and nuke it in the microwave for 30 seconds when we want another serving.
