I made this because I received lots of ginkgo nuts as a gift.There is an another method to prepare the ginkgo nuts by sealing them in a paper bag or in an envelope and then microwaving them, but I think that the frying pan method makes the ginkgo nuts soft and dense (potato-ey) and much better tasting.

The chestnuts were a bargain find.The first thing I thought of was chestnut rice.This rice is flavored lightly in order to enjoy the delicious natural taste of the chestnuts. Recipe by Mikoobachan

I make this every year when chestnuts are in season. It's a standard in our house.It's easier to peel warm chestnuts that's already boiled or cooked. If you don't have a dashi stock bag, you can just use dashi powder or dashi soup you have. Recipe by handmadecafe

I wanted to recreate my mother's recipe... I've been experimenting every autumn, so I hope it tastes like hers.-You may doubt adding sugar, but his enhances the sweet flavor of the chestnuts and also improves the taste.-When peeling chestnuts, remove the outer skin while it's warm and then peel the inner skin. This might make things easier. For 2 rice cooker cups' worth. Recipe by Ami

I collected a lot of chestnuts when I went chestnut gathering. I remembered the chestnut rice that my mother used to make for me.Mind you don't mix it too much once it's done, because the chestnuts will fall apart. Just give a quick mix! Recipe by Yumina

A seasonal dish to enjoy.The fragrance improves if you add a little soy sauce! For 6 servings. Recipe by Moakun

Every year during chestnut season, I always cook the chestnut rice. I normally mix it with Japanese sweet rice and also regular Japanese rice.

The choice of rice is very important when you are cooking Ghee Rice. The traditional way is to use "Jeerakasala" Rice. But it's not available everywhere, so I have used Basmati Rice for this recipe. You can soak the rice for 20 minutes prior to cooking. Some rice are sticky. This is one problem we face while cooking ghee rice, since the rice is not drained. It's still an easy recipe to try. You can fry cashew & raisins in ghee separately & garnish with it.Taste best with chicken curry & raita.

Since I had chicken...I think firm rice is more delicious than soft.So I recommend cooking for firm rice. It's also OK to use regular soy sauce! This is lightly seasoned, so adjust to your liking.Also check out my blog (Japanese only)http://tmnr14.blog17.fc2.com/ Recipe by Nico

Kuri Gohan is a traditional Japanese classic rice that cooks chestnuts with rice.Chestnuts and salty rice match well and are delicious.

My mother taught me this recipe.Don't worry about draining the rice in a colander if you don't have time.Feel free to add more soy sauce to taste. This rice is also amazing with just salt and sake. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221
