Ennui on Rice

about me

I'm a 24-year-old newly-wed currently living in northern Japan with my husband. I teach at a rural high school here, but I still have plenty of time in my miniature kitchen (I only have two burners! And a microwave-sized oven!) trying to recreate all the foods I miss from home.

Favorite Foods:

There is one Mexican restaurant in a 100 mile radius of my town here, so my current favorite foods are recreated Mexican dishes, homemade tortillas and makeshift burritos.

We're constantly on the look out for comfort foods, usually made with improvised ingredients, and every time we find a new lasagna we get excited.

Even so, Japanese cuisine has been slowly working it's way into my meals, and I've been finding recently that a lot of my meals have miso and rice in them now...

Thanks for all your recipes! Recipezaar has been a lifesaver, giving us great, simple recipes that impress all our friends and give us that taste of home we miss so much.
