Clash of the Cultures: Japan Vs. Philippines

        

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The culture of Japan is very different from the Philippines. From their way of serving food, their clothing, the way they greet their elders and their religion.

            Japanese food is well presented and kind of sophisticated. They always assure that they are eating healthy foods. Their diet normally consists of  rice, meat, and vegetables. Their food isn’t just healthy but also oishi~ (it means, delicious). And they have many kinds of dessert like, mochi which is a rice cake made from glutinous rice usually has red bean paste in it. Mochi doesn’t taste very sweet in fact it’s just right and it is very soft and chewy. Their food is well known in different countries like, America, Europe, and even Philippines.  In Philippines our staple food is rice. Even without any other meals, we just make sure that there is rice on the table we are good. But of course, we also serve heart warming food that is made at home, the presentation is not so extravagant or sophisticated like Japan’s we usually just cook it in the pot and serve it on a large bowl or plate. We also have desserts like sorbetes, which is also called ice cream, and the people’s favourite which is the halo-halo, that has crushed ice on top of jellies, beans, nata, kaong, and you can add many more. Topped with leche flan, ube or sorbetes.

Does this dish reminds you of our very own Kare-Kare? Or Caldereta? 

Well, this dish is the version of Japan which is called Kare Raisu (curry rice). It is a popular dish both at home and in casual dining establishments.

You can also try it with pork katsu for a delicious flavor combination! You can also add some of your favorite vegetables for your diet! Like lettuce, and cabbages, it's up to you!I'm almost like saying loudly "wow" when I see this picture of Kare Raisu. As you can see, there is the rice, that we also Filipinos really wanted in our daily meal. There is also the pork blended with the very juicy sauce. I'm starving now because by just looking at it, you can tell that this is a really delicious dish. And of course, if you are interested in Japan, you have to be also interested in there dishes.
