About Me I was born and raised in Fukuoka in 1995. I love discovering delicious food just as much as I love eating it! As of January 2025, I’m grateful to have around 850,000 followers on Instagram—thank you so much for your amazing support. My Recipe Philosophy Through cooking, I hope to share many moments of happiness. Whether you’re someone who cooks daily for your family despite a busy schedule, or someone who wants to prepare a delicious meal for a loved one, I want my recipes to be your go-to. I focus on recipes that are easy to make using familiar ingredients and everyday seasonings found in any home. My dishes are not so much “fancy” in flavor as they are warm, home-style meals—simple, quick, and budget-friendly. I would be delighted if my recipes could bring a small sense of warmth and joy to both those who cook and those who eat. The happiness of making something tasty, the joy of hearing “It’s delicious!”, the smiles around the dining table, and the fun of cooking together with children—these are the heartwarming little moments I hope to deliver through my cooking."

Tips & Notes
