I'll have to pull out my file and compare!

By the way, the current Kyou no Ryouri (October issue) has a feature on universal seasoning mixees, which tend to be soy sauce/mirin/sake formulae.

Its a good issue. I've tried the tamanegi/onion-miso seasoning recipe and its very good.

The umami soy sauce recipe is ...(for two cups)

soy sauce -3/4 cups

mirin - 1/2 cups

konbu - 8cm x 8cm

kezuri bushi (削り節) - 20g (e.g. bonito flakes)

water- 1 cup

- cook soy sauce, mirin, konbu, water until it boils.

- lower to low hear, add bonito flakes, and cook for 2min

- strain using colander lined with a paper towel.

the best ratio for takikomi gohan or kamameshi I have found. I have tried over 10.

dashi:shirojyouyu*:mirin

18:1.5:1

*shirojyouyu is usually translated as "white soy sauce". It is soy sauce made entirely with wheat (as apposed to a mix of wheat and soy beans)

In professional washoku restaurants in kansai seasonings are lined up in front of the cooking area in the following order. left to right: koikuchi, usukuchi, mirin, sake. on a seperate shelf if possible there are: ajinomoto, fine salt, sugar. These seasoning are taken from the stainless steel containers using a small ladle which I think is called a kanagae. The size of the ladle is based on the traditional Japanese system for measuring volumes of liquids. At most restaurants they use ladles of these sizes 1-seki*, 2-seki, 4-seki, 8-seki, 1-gou. *The term seki is used in kansai, the proper term is shaku. One shaku is approimately 18ml 1-gou is about 180ml.

The ratio for kansai dashi maki:

for every three eggs:

4:0.5:o:o

dashi(one 4-seki ladle) : usukuchi(0.5seki): pinch salt :pinch ajinomoto

I keep coming back to this post now and then to refresh my memory whenever I haven't made Japanese food in some time. Thank you, Hiroyuki-san. ^_^
