My favorite of the sides dishes my mother used to make is this spinach with black sesame sauce. I learned the recipe from her, so I'm writing it down so I don't forget it.Grinding the sesame seeds very well in a grinding bowl just before mixing them in makes a big difference to the aroma.

If you don't measure the sesame properly, the taste ends up being too strong. (Maybe this is just me.) You can get the standard taste with just one teaspoon.I recommend using coarsely ground sesame seeds, not finely ground.That produces the right degree of absorption of soy sauce and texture.An easy-to-remember proportion of ingredients: 2 tbs, 2 tsp., 2 tsp. (or 6 tsp, 2 tsp, 2 tsp.)!In other words, with any spoon size, you can use a ratio of 3:1:1. Recipe by Maruchiwawa

You can make a large amount of basic Chinese dressing and store the extra. It will come in handy when I'm busy Ra-yu makes the dish spicy, and it's tasty.If you are using unsweetened peanut butter, please adjust the taste by adding more sugar. Using the sesame paste instead of peanut butter also makes the dish taste delicious If you don't have either of them, don't worry about it. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

The use of black sesame paste makes this a perfect balance of sweet and nutty. Optionally mix in some black sesame seeds for more nuttiness and crunch :)

Japanese Spinach Salad is a relatively common Japanese side dish. It’s very easy to make with simple ingredients. Cooked spinach is soaked in marinde made of dashi, soy sauce, and mirin. The combination of umami from the dashi, saltiness from the soy sauce and sweetness from mirin gives the spinach that refreshing and light taste. Perfect to eat it by itself or accompany with other oily dishes such as karaage or tempura.If you cannot find katsuobushi which is shaved dried bonito or do not like the flavor of dried fish then use roasted white sesame seeds instead.https://youtu.be/rKWjlHQ8ldo
