Three Japanese Mixed Rice for Autumn & Winter / 日本の秋冬炊き込みご飯

in #hive-10913921 days ago

I love warm and comforting takikomi gohan (Japanese mixed rice) especially during autumn and winter. Earlier this season, I wrote about kuri gohan (chestnut rice).

Since then, I’ve made mushroom rice and… mandarin orange rice (!), so I’d like to share both with you.

Mushroom rice is a classic in Japan in this season. It’s very easy to make—just combine your favorite mushrooms with rice, add a little salt and soy sauce, and cook them together. I used brown mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, shiitake, and erylnghii this time. You don't cook them in advance 🙌 This year, I’ve been obsessed with glutinous rice and have been mixing 30–50%. Adding a piece of kombu (kelp) while cooking also makes it delicious.

And then there’s mandarin orange rice! As a Bitcoin enthusiast, it felt like a dish I just had to make 🍊 😊 I recently learned about it from a tweet by Sunny Sanae, a Japanese healing food cook.

Cooking mandarins with rice might sound surprising, but that’s exactly what you do—boldly cook them together.

The result is slightly sweet and tangy, with a hint of saltiness—a unique and delicious flavor.

Speaking of citrus, one of the yuzu trees in my garden has another fruit ripening on it. I might try making yuzu rice next. I’m also thinking about making a winter root vegetable rice with burdock and carrots.

Takikomi gohan is simple and satisfying. Just add your favorite ingredients and rice into a rice cooker, press the button, and you’re done! Paired with pickles, it makes a complete meal—and it’s great for making onigiri (Japanese rice ball) too.

Why not try making takikomi gohan, a dish filled with the gentle flavors of Japan! 😊

秋冬のほっこりあたたかい気持ちになる炊き込みご飯が大好きです。今シーズン作った炊き込みご飯では、少し前に栗ご飯について書きました。

そのあと、きのこの炊き込みご飯と、みかんの炊き込みご飯(!)を作ったので、それぞれについて書こうと思います。

きのこの炊き込みご飯は馴染みがある人も多いことでしょう。作り方は簡単で、好みのきのことご飯に塩と醤油少々を加えて一緒に炊くだけです。今シーズンは餅米にはまっていて30-50%もち米を混ぜています。昆布を一緒に入れて炊いてもおいしいです。

そしてもう一つ作ったのがみかんご飯です・・・!ビットコインががんばっている中、ビットコイナーとしては是非とも作りたい一皿ですよね 🍊 これは最近作るようになった炊き込みご飯で、ヒーリングごはん研究家のサニー早苗さんのTwitterの投稿で知りました。

みかんを炊く!?とびっくりする人もいるかもしれません。まさにその通り。豪快に炊き込みます。

ほんのり甘酸っぱくてちょっと塩味も効いていてなんとも言えないおいしさです。

柑橘類では、先日うちにやってきたゆずの木にもうひとつ実がついているので、柚子の炊き込みご飯を作ろうかな。あとはごぼうやにんじんを入れた冬の根菜の炊き込みご飯も作りたいです。

炊飯器に好きな材料とご飯を入れてスイッチを押したらできあがる炊き込みご飯。おいしい上に、簡単に作れて、お漬物を添えるだけで立派な一食になるのもいいところです。おにぎりにしてもいいですね。

日本のやさしい味わいの炊き込みご飯、作ってみませんか!

I just showed this to Simon, he loves mushrooms. Guess I'll have to make this now

Yes yes! Even mushrooms are grown indoor still it's something for this season 😊

We also know rice cooked with mushrooms.
A sweet variant is rice with apples or plums.
With tangerine it's an interesting idea. I'll definitely try to cook

Apple and plum is an interesting idea 💡 I see often rice cooked sweet more like porridge in Germany 😊

It is also made with fruit as a baked pudding.
