A Package from Japan!

       Yesterday, my husband and I received a package which his mother sent to us from Japan. When she gets famous sweets or something delicious, she sends a package from Japan to share those with us. If truth be told, she sent packages twice this month! We were excited to open this package last night. :))  Today, I'm going to share with you what she sent to us. If you have never lived or traveled in Japan, you are probably not familiar with these Japanese foods. :)

        This is Shiroi Koibito, very famous cookies in Hokkaido, Japan. I think that she has probably traveled in Hokkaido recently.
Shiroi Koibito, 白い恋人

      Shiroi Koibito consists of white chocolate sandwiched between cookies. These are pretty expensive but so delicious.

        These are Marumiya Mazekomiwakame, rice seasoning. This is perfect seasoning for rice ball. These packages read, limited time flavor, grilled sea bream.
Marumiya Mazekomi Wakame Aburi Dai, 丸美屋 混ぜ込みわかめ 炙り鯛

        Just add this seasoning to cooked rice, and mix them thoroughly. This must be good! :))

      This is seasoning for chirashi sushi, scattered sushi.
Mitsukan Gomoku Chirashi, ミツカン 五目ちらし
     It contains some vegetables such as mushroom and lotus roots, and some seasoning. It's very easy to make as well. Just add it to cooked rice, and mix them thoroughly. Add fresh sashimi and tamago yaki if desired.

      This is a boiled bamboo shoot. I will make cooked rice with bamboo shoot in near future. :)
Takenoko no Mizuni, たけのこ水煮

      This is Japanese plum jelly.

     Each package has a small Japanese plum in jelly. I've just had one. It was sweet and sour.
