Since the weather is warming up and you guys are pulling out your barbecues, we thought we'd share this amazing BBQ tofu steaks recipe. These steaks are delicious, so easy to whip up and are such a great source of plant-based protein. If you don't have a barbecue, you can just throw these on the stove using a griddle pan, just like we did!

Matcha Butter Cookies
We love matcha! These butter cookies aren’t too sweet and they highlight the delicate bitterness of matcha (green tea powder). Fumi has been gobbling these up. Enjoy with a cup of hot tea.

Beet Kinpira
Do you know about kinpira-gobo? We used to make it for our orinigiri (Japanese rice ball) when we had a store front on Dupont street in Toronto. Kinpira is usually made with burdock roots and carrots.
Since I am in Japan, I sent OKAZU to my Japanese friends to see how they use it.
This recipe is from one of my friends who make kinpira with beets instead of burdock roots and carrots. It's super easy and delicious, so I wanted to share it with you!
