Home cooking in Japan, around a full-time job.
Hataraku gohan means the meals of a working life. A full breakfast tray before the commute, dinner after it, and something baked on the weekend. Cooked by hand for more than ten years.
Mornings
The breakfast tray: rice, miso soup, and small dishes, cooked before the commute.
Dinners
What gets cooked after a full day of work.
Weekends
Cakes, slow dishes, and the make-ahead cooking that carries the week.
Pantry
The soy sauce, miso, and basics she has used for years.
The first entries are on their way.
The kitchen has been running for ten years. The diary starts now, one meal at a time.
