Beginning to learn Japanese

i have been writing japanese recipes over at Japanese! Japanese! … so far i have posted:
- gyoza
- handrolls

ronan is going to show how to make miso next… if anyone reading this would like to learn how to make some kind japanese food, and learn the vocab for it, please leave a comment here! anything i should add to my list?

these aren’t ‘real’ recipes, they are pictures of processes, and ingredients with essential vocabulary you needs; verbs and nouns, adjectives, yeah, you know, vocabulary. and meanwhile, ronan and i are learning how to cook japanese food. i’m opting for easy options, and keeping it simple.

i have a japanese language exchange partner who is also going to do some cooking exchange with me and some friends. so i’ll teach her 洋食 (ようしょく) and she’ll teach me 和食　(わしょく)

wa わ is used for japanese, and よう is used for western. you put either before: しょく (this is the japanese reading for 食 , meaning food i think).
