THE CONCEPT
AUTHENTIC JAPANESE CUISINE IN SWITZERLAND
Welcome to “Washoku”, traditional Japanese Cuisine. It’s since 2013 UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
It is considered a healthy cuisine because Japanese diet includes land and sea vegetables (seaweed). Seafood is lower in calories than meat, the fats it contains are of the ‘good’ kind. Some fermented products (as Miso) add various kinds of beneficial flora to our digestive systems.
Two foods that are integral part of Japanese cooking are tofu and green tea. Tofu is a great source of vegetable based protein and green tea has been given all kinds health benefits for its .
The healthiest parts of Japanese cuisine has to do with the way food is consumed: in moderation and with lots of variety.
In order to cook homemade authentic Japanese sushi and food, impeccable freshness is the key to make this experience really special.
I use only the best quality ingredients, no glutamate or preservatives in my recipes.
