View ProfileDiscover a taste of classic Japanese home cooking with Chef Esther’s Oyakodon—chicken, egg, and rice. First, she simmers juicy, tender strips of skinless chicken thigh, egg, napa cabbage, onion, and carrots in a rich, flavorful broth made with dried kelp, soy, and shiitake mushrooms. Then, she spoons it over rice seasoned with Furikake, a sweet and savory blend of sesame seeds, dried seaweed, garlic, sugar, and salt. Drizzle on the accompanying Mentsuyu sauce for a blast of umami richness, and curl up with a flavor-packed bowl of comfort.
