Okoshi (puffed grain treats)
Though okoshi could be made of different types of grains, this one is made of rice. Black ones are sweetened with black sugar, not chocolate. Simple yet tasty – Japan

Extra spicy tantanmen with kimchi
It wasn’t very spicy despite the look. But I decided that liked the regular flavor better so I’ll go back to that next time – Japan

Kagami Biraki
Today was Kagami Biraki. We eat Kagami Mochi, one of New Year’s decorations on this day. The 2 tired white round portion is edible mochi (though I’m not sure if this particular decoration was real. I forgot to take a photo at home) – Japan

Onigiri (rice ball)
This ingenious wrapper keeps moist rice and crispy seaweed separated until you are ready to eat. Great quick meal or snack – Japan

Annintofu
I think it’s called almond tofu or jelly in English? It’s not really tofu, only the texture is tofu-like. Light and delicious – Japan
