Making Shiso Furikake
When I make umeboshi, I dry ume plums and shiso leaves at the same time so that I can make shiso furikake (rice seasoning sprinkles). I store shiso furikake and use it for making rice balls and topping rice. It is really handy to have some furikake at home. Furikake packets at stores come in many different flavors.

Japanese Recipe of the Week: Sour Chicken and Eggs
How do you like to cook chicken drumsticks? This is my favorite chicken drumsticks dish. As it's called "suppa-ni (sour simmered dishes)" in Japanese, ingredients are simmered in soy sauce and vinegar based soup. This dish can help increase appetite during the summer. I usually add boiled eggs, but you could simmer only chicken if you would like.

Summer Eel Eating Day
People in Japan customarily eat unagi (eel) on Doyo-no-ushinohi which is the cow day during the summer Doyo period, according to the lunar calendar. The "eel eating day" is July 26 in 2010. It's said that the reason to eat unagi on this day is to get stamina during the hottest time of the year. Precooked and vacuum-sealed eel are available at Asian grocery stores, so try eating eel this summer.

Japanese Recipe of the Week: Hiyayakko
As yakko refers to tofu, hiyayakko is a Japanese cold tofu dish. When you don't feel like cooking, it's a quick appetizer to prepare in the summer. All you need to do is place toppings on top of chilled tofu.

Beni Shoga
Beni shoga is red pickled ginger as beni means red and shoga means ginger in Japanese. Beni shoga is used for garnishing many Japanese dishes, such as yakisoba and gyudon. Prepackaged beni shoga can be bought at Asian grocery stores, and it's handy to keep some in the refrigerator. To make beni shoga, ginger root slices are pickled in red plum vinegar (aka-umezu). I make beni shoga at the same time as umeboshi making in early summer. Beni Shoga Recipe
