This recipe was passed down to me from my mom, and is a staple in our house.You can pickle the garlic without slicing, but you could use the sliced garlic in cooking, so I make 2 kinds of garlic soy sauce in my house.Adjust the amount of garlic to your liking. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

As you only have the aroma instead of eating the actual garlic, the smell doesn't linger as long and you don't have garlicky breath afterward.I wrote "100 ml or more" for the amount of soy sauce, because you first use enough soy sauce to just cover the garlic cloves. Afterward, you can add as much soy sauce as you like. The aroma is best if you use it up within one week. The garlic changes colour, so take them out after about 3 days. Recipe by Yukoai_yukoi

This is my parents' summer recipe that I now serve to my own family.If the zucchini and potato are very large, cut vertically in half before slicing. If thin, cut into disks.[Regarding the amount of soy sauce] If you're going to eat it right away, 2 tablespoons is fine, but the longer you wait, the stronger the flavor gets. If you're going to wait before eating the recipe, use less soy sauce. For 3-4 servings. Recipe by Run

Since I love the combination of umeboshi and miso, I tried it out on pounded cucumber.It's best to use unsweetened umeboshi. If left sitting for too long, this will become watery, so serve as soon as you mix in the seasoning. It has 53 kcal per serving. Recipe by LazyHata

I made my husband's dinner using 1 chicken thigh left in the fridge.The time it takes to brown the chicken is not included in the 10 minute cooking time To simmer, use a small frying pan, so that the chicken fits perfectly. When making double the amount of chicken, use double the amount of sauce, and use a frying pan large enough so that 2 chicken thighs will fit. This time, I used store-bought grated garlic Please adjust the amount of garlic to taste. Recipe by Totono mama chan

I harvested a lot of shiitake mushrooms that I grew myself. I wanted to eat them in a tasty way, so I tried combining them with a cucumber I had in the refrigerator. This was amazingly delicious! Ingredients with different textures really go together well!By coating the cucumber with flour before cooking it, it blends better with the seasonings and retains its moisture better for a juicy finish.Add some shichimi chili pepper mix as well as the black pepper if you like.
