Dining with the Chef (2012) : 6x6

In this episode, we'll make a steamed dish with beef and lots of spring vegetables. By adding soft-boiled onsen egg, we make this recipe as nutritious as it is delicious. Rika will show us how to make two different sauces for this dish: a soy sauce-based sauce, and a sauce made with a mix of lemon and sesame oil. For our side dishes, we'll be making green pepper tossed with a sesame coating, giving it the great flavor of sesame seeds. We'll also be making ginger syrup, a popular item to have around in both summer and winter. Ginger warms the body and boosts immunity, making it a great ingredient to add to your diet particularly as the seasons change. This ginger syrup goes great mixed with soda water or black tea — we hope you'll try making it, too!
