I am interested in having a complete authentic Japanese Diet because I just love how healthy/practical the diet can be.

What are the most basic ingredients to start me off? I know about Tempura flour, use of various seafood, pickled ginger, short-grain sticky rice, dashi, wake, nori, noodles, fermented soybeans, other soybean products such as tofu, sesame seeds and oil, cooking sake...

What else would I need to have a well-rounded yet basic Japanese diet. I want to go to my local Asian market and pick up some things to start me off. What should I get?

Is this the Japanese cuisine thread?

Hello mina-san! Im looking for a bento box, it cant be pinku (thats japanese for pink) or any girl color. It has to be of 2 or more kotoba (thats japanese for 2 compartments) and has be be chibi (small) sized. And has to be really kawaii (cute). Also It has to be about 10-20 bux. And you have to post pics of it first (i want to make shure it's kawaii [cute]). And it would be nice if it came with matching chopstick holder (WITH chopsticks). OH! and it CANNOT have any cartoon pictures, or be made out of plastic. It has to be made of ceramic, or something like that. Also it would be nice if it was made in japan. and not in china or corea (korea) or whatever. I have found a bento box similar to the one im describing in e-bay, but it was 1 kotoba, and i dont want my gohan (rice) to touch my other things (it can get wet and i would not like that, plus 2 compartments looks more kawaii).

A tuna and mayo sushi roll, with soy sauce and wasabi on the side, is a simple and delicious way to enjoy sushi at home! The rice must be short-grained (Cal Rose) and the nori is affordable if you buy it in bulk online. Nori is good to just snack on by itself too! What are you waiting for, /jp/?

Japanese traditional diets are balanced just like everyone traditional diet is balanced. If they weren't, they wouldn't be traditional. There's no reason to follow unless you're weeb as fuck.

You can improvise. Such as using angel hair pasta with baking soda for noodles. There is also a grocery that sells a lot of the traditional stuff near me. A lot of the veggies are available too and again you can improvise.

The Japanese diet is low in fat and high in high-quality fish protein. There is little consumption of red meat which has been linked to heart disease and other diseases like age-related macular degeneration. The Japanese diet is high in phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals and when combined with high-quality fish protein that provides a lean source of essential amino acids and omega-3 fatty acids, it makes for a model diet. The Japanese diet is the healthiest in the world and this and more detailed information is presented in any Nutrition 101 class.

actually, eggs are infact very good for eating, especially the yolk, which has many vital nutrients that cannot be easily found elsewhere (like vitamin b12, lecithin, or cholesterol [protip, dietary cholesterol intake is not correlated with plaque formation, but it is a necessary precursor for steroidal hormones and cell formation).

SUGAR is the main component of fat production, not fat. Why?

>Increased lipid synthesis – insulin forces fat cells to take in blood lipids, which are converted to triglycerides;
>Increased esterification of fatty acids – forces adipose tissue to make fats (i.e., triglycerides) from fatty acid esters
>Decreased lipolysis – forces reduction in conversion of fat cell lipid stores into blood fatty acids

and the whole culture of rage comics, you're an idort (look that one up).
Rage comics combine pretty much every other meme that can be reduced to black-and-white into a template for infinite possibilities. FFFUUUU comics on /b/ were just "hey what annoys you?" and even /b/ hated them.

I'm not saying rage comics are great, but there are a few funny ones and they would have never appeared on /b/.

No you didn't. 4chan is just as derivative as Reddit. Almost every reaction image comes from some manga, TV show, etc. except for the ones by Whynne and Three Angled Blue.

Rage comics on 4chan were the precursor to the ones Reddit made. We did them first, and Reddit copied them and changed them into something we hate, but we still did them first.

I've been having a thought experiment going. It may sound crazy, but I believe it possible to help further humanity and society by
making everyone fat. Why? Well, since fat is a social construct, and you can be equally healthy at all sizes. Then making everyone fat, will
effectively get rid of discrimination. If people are all equally fat, which you can do then you will remove discrimination as people are equal.
It is impossible to make everyone thin, but it is possible to make everyone fat.

Calories are the only thing that influence weight gain. Macronutrients themselves dont.
3500 calories = 1lb gained
proteins and carbs have 4.5 calores per gram, fat has 9, alcohols have 7.

Fat itself isnt harmful, in fact, it's neccessary for 10-25% of your calories per day to come from fat for ideal hormone production and regulation.
50-60% should be carbohydrates, for energy and brain activity, and the rest protein for muscle synthesis and repair.

Too little carbohydrates mean that your body starts using fat and protein as energy sources, which in the long run is bad for your kidneys (and general health).

When you're trying to lose excess weight, the point is to convince your body you have a constant supply of food and it doesn't need to store anything for later.

It's not really what Japanese cuisine is made out of but more how much.

Americans just eat a ridiculous amount of food and think it's normal. Japanese portions are much smaller, that's all there is to it.

That's not all there is to it. The staples are all stuff like rice, fish, tofu, seaweed, noodles, etc. which are all healthy or semi-healthy foods, compared to the typically consumed foods in America anyway. If you live in Japan you tend to eat TOO much rice and starch though, so unless you're making your own food and follow a strict diet you're not really that far off from the unhealthy eating habits the US has. They can't eat as much as Americans do so they eat less, but what they eat is mostly bentos and shit you pick up from the convenient stores.

What OP is thinking of is more along the lines of "washoku."

Which isn't necessarily quite staple. Japanese people that eat more western style meals don't weigh as much as Americans either. It's that they eat less of it and usually get more exercise from walking/biking to destinations or at least to the train station. Unless they live in bumfuck like nnb or something.

Im looking for a bento box, it cant be pinku (thats japanese for pink) or any girl color. It has to be of 2 or more kotoba (thats japanese for 2 compartments) and has be be chibi (small) sized. And has to be really kawaii (cute). Also It has to be about 10-20 bux. And you have to post pics of it first (i want to make shure it's kawaii [cute]). And it would be nice if it came with matching chopstick holder (WITH chopsticks). OH! and it CANNOT have any cartoon pictures, or be made out of plastic. It has to be made of ceramic, or something like that. Also it would be nice if it was made in japan. and not in china or corea (korea) or whatever. I have found a bento box similar to the one im describing in e-bay, but it was 1 kotoba, and i dont want my gohan (rice) to touch my other things (it can get wet and i would not like that, plus 2 compartments looks more kawaii)

Currently using a pretty good instant one, but how hard is it to make one from scratch?

Also how do you get rice "just right"?
My rice cooker usually fucks it up (even with washed rice, a sticky film forms on the bottom of the cooker, making some of the rice unusable).

The reason why this topic is controversial and has so many conflicting studies is that nutritionists are not medical doctors, and do not take into account genetic and cultural differences.

The world is a large place and, despite religious beliefs, people evolved to suit their environment by developing intrinsic factors that allow them to assimilate the available food.
Without that adaptation, eating various non-indigenous food items can lead to medical complications no one can accurately predict.
That's why Inuit people can consume blubber and not have heart disease.

If your rice cooker does not have a flat surface anymore, it's cooking the rice improperly. Make sure that it is very flat or else you would need a replacement.

And do use a little less water, a good rule of thumb in my experience would be to do 1:1.25 rather than 1.5 to get the "firm" and somewhat drier rice.

Margarine is vegetable oil that's been pumped through a specialized kind of battery with a catalytic converter like they have on car exhaust pipes, and turned into trans fat. It was supposed to be a healthier chemical/plastic imitation of butter.

1) The fact that a catalytic converter is used in the production process of margarine has nothing whatsoever to do with its healthiness. Do you know what a catalytic converter is? Every factory for every food since the industrial boom contains one.

2) Saying that margarine is a 'chemical' or 'related to chemicals' is an idiotic scare-tactic. Your skin is filled with chemicals. Are you going to get rid of it? It sounds really dangerous, right?

3) Saying that margarine is a 'plastic' is false, and saying that is has molecular closeness to a plastic is another idiotic scare tactic. Salt has molecular closeness to an ultra-deadly gas. This does not mean you should be afraid of salt.

Please stop with this stupid salt myth already.
It was disproven so hard.
All the other major studies were seriously flawed.

Not to mention the salt intake per person is hugely different depending on diet.
I mean HUGELY different.
As a very basic example, someone that doesn't drink as much water compared to someone that drinks a lot are the ones that are more at risk of salt over-consumption.

And for retards that spout the whole "but it caaaauses hypertension", no it doesn't.
There has been ZERO links to it.
It HEIGHTENS the severity of hypertension, but it does NOT cause it. At all. Not even slightly.
People are sensitive to salt just like some people are hilariously sensitive to water (nature sure is a dick) or people are sensitive to glutamates.
I've known people that have eaten considerably higher amounts of salt than those WITH hypertension and be perfectly fine. Hint, my grandparents.
And guess who just died first, my grandmother, the one with the hypertension.

"Salt is bad" is the same sort of retards that done the whole "fat is bad" research.
It just left the stage where fat was nearly a decade ago when "bad fat" was a thing.
Bad fat, dear christ America stop sciencing, you are polluting science with your fucking stupid.
Meanwhile the rest of the world know that there are upper tolerances to the various fats that are quite high.
The reason so many people are fat bastards is because they sit around doing absolutely nothing with all those minerals they are consuming, NOTHING ELSE.
The body has dealt with higher fat intake for literally thousands of years. It survived a god damn ice age and supervolcano.
It is highly capable of dealing with some toxins and over-consumption.
What it can't deal with is laziness.
