Dining With the Chef

Season 3, Episode 23 of 52

The theme this episode is topped rice bowls. A bowl of rice with delicious toppings is a quick and easy single-dish meal popular in Japan. Chef Tatsuo Saito and Yu Hayami introduce one of the many common rice bowls: oyako-don. They show the techniques needed to prepare the chicken and onion, with the great flavor of dashi and beaten egg, cooked until the egg is perfectly rich and fluffy, and then they top it with deliciously crisp naganegi long onion to provide a great accent. They also make another variant on oyako-don, using flaked salmon - a popular ingredient in bento lunches - and salmon roe, for great taste and a fun texture. The green, yellow, red, and pink of these dishes are sure to make them a colorful delight!
