It has been for a while since the big typhoon had gone.

There were landslides along my regular routes to the mountains and they still have scars.

But fortunately, I myself and my home were not affected.

The nature is so fascinating, bringing us the peace of mind and happiness, but at the same time it has the opposite side like us.

It is the order of the nature, yin and yang.

The nature is so powerful, but not infinitely, may be it could be so vulnerable.

 

Thanksgiving Day is coming soon.

(If you are interested in knowing about the equivalent day in Japan, visit this post. )

 We need to thank the nature for its blessing in the form of harvests.

Pumpkins, chestnuts, sweet potatoes, taros, lotus roots, walnuts, ginkonuts, persimmons have been harvested and are widely available now.

Most of them are starchy and fatty.

It is the blessing from the nature for us to be prepared for the cold winter.

It is interesting that every year my appetite increases in this season, and those foods satisfy my heart and tummy.

Among them, rice is the fundamental staple which is the source of my power.

Newly harvested rice is so tasty with a hint of sweetness and  moisture.

Today I am sharing the glutinous rice recipe, “Okowa”.
My recipe is based on the very traditional method.

If you search “Okowa” you can hit many recipes, but most of them are following the contemporary quick boiling method, often using the electric rice cooker.

“Okowa” literally means hard, and it is something like al dente, the word to express the certain firmness of the pasta. 
This texture cannot be yielded by boiling and simmering the rice. 
It can be obtained only by steaming.

Therefore if you want a real “Okowa”, follow my recipe !
