I do love cooking anyway, not so good at it though...
So today, let me introduce about my discovery about
"The Difference Between How I cooked in Australia and Japan"
from my tiny cooking experience. Are you ready to join it ;D"The Difference Between How I cooked in Australia and Japan"
*YUNA and COOKING*
I've been in Australia for a while when I was 18. I guess my cooking history has started at that time! since then, I started photographing my dishes. I found amusing difference between how I cooked in Australia and Japan!!
Even though the menu was same, its color, dish, and any other visual effects were so different! So now I want you to introduce them by using those pictures. (on the left side, I paste which I cooked in Australia, and the right side will be Japan for each menu)

Let's atart my cooking journey with tomato spaghetti. Actually, it was the very wirst meal that I cooked in AUS. Sooooo memorable!!!!!! For your information, I cooked Japanese one after a year passed. Then I'd like you to focus on each "Ingredients"it's quite different isn't it? In AUS version, I only put green pepper and bacon in it... very simple. Howabout Japanese one? I put shrimp, squid, tomato, clams....soooo gorgeous!!!you see how my skill has improved don't you ;)? Oh thanks a lot. What I really want to say is that even if you used same flavored sauce, you could make various kinds of dishes!!!!
*meat-stuffed cabbage*
Looks same? OK, I'll lead to the answer..."Role of the menu"was the key of this dish. When I cooked meat-stuffed cabbage so far, I didn't need any other side dish with it because it role as main dish AND SOUP as well!! On the other hand, when I cooked it in Japan, I put MISO SOUP with. I guess the reason why I did that was because I deal with meat-stuffued cabbage as JAPANESE FOOD. So I didn't recognize beef consomme soup, which I boiled for cooking it, as SOUP!! I was surprised at the difference of my way of treating this menu.
*curry and rice*
WOW!! It's hard to see for my curry in AUS:0 Ican't believe that I maked them. It's clear that the "Quantity" of two have a huge gap!! When I was in Aus, I had few money and sho;d have manage it. so I always tried to cook as much meals as I could with minimum money. Now you know why I made such a crzy quantity of curry and rice at one time. the curry was placed in a freezer and I ate them over time. I had "Curry Week" many times.

*hamburger*
I sometimes cook it to my nephew because my hamburger is his favorite:) Whenever I cooked to them, I pay attention to the "Color" of the dish. I didn't care the shape or color of the sauteed vegetable if I eat by myself. however I do care if there are my lovely nephews!!! I do not want him to have dislike vegetavle, that's why I'm always trying to make it colprful as much as I can.
It's time to end up my DISCOVERY.
Overall, I found that the most significant difference is WHO YOU COOK FOR.....
I cooked just for my self before, so my Australian dish were so simple naturally. I valued"Quantity" than "Quality" but, I now feel much plesure while I'm cooking.
BECAUSE....
Irealized cooking for someone meke me happier! Mom, sister, nephews, friends...If I have someone to cook for and eat together, we can share our time. What a Lovely thing!!!!
Why don't you try cooling for your dearest? It'll make you warm;)
Hope you have a sweet eating moment with someone special :)
and Let me hear about YOUR story...xoxo
