Tomoka's Cooking 8 Thought
For me,cooking is a way of life. It's about so much more than just preparing food.
これはわたしが料理をする時にわたし自身に語り掛ける８つのこと
I really think that cooking is a way to...
1. Have fun
なるべく自分たちで作りましょう！失敗してもいいの、いつか上手になるから楽しんで！
It doesn't matter if things don't turn out perfectly - just have a go (and you might be surprised at your progress!)
2. Explore
キッチンは地球のどんな場所でもいいわ！
Wherever you are in the world, you can always find somewhere to cook!
3. Open your eyes
その土地のどんな季節も感じ取ってね。目を凝らして、耳を澄ますのよ
Our five senses can tell us a lot about what's in season (and most delicious!)
4. Nourish
自分と大切な人の養生になるような食事を作れたら素晴らしいわね
Remember that you're fuelling the lives and actions of your friends and family when you cook for them!
5. Re-energise
たまには何をしても辛い時もあるかもね。そんな時は無理をしないで簡単なものを！
とにかく何か食べましょう 。でも、よく噛んで食べてね！
Don't skip food if your day's not going to plan… take a moment to breathe, refresh (and chew well!)
6. Travels
つまらない時は料理の歴史などを考えてみて！旅をしている気分になるわよ。
Cooking can sometimes be a chore, but start to imagine how your ingredients got to you and you'll be off on a culinary adventure!
7. Meditate
すべての出逢いを大切に。つまり食材にもよ！
Thinking about the time it takes to grow the food and the journey it took to you, you realise how lucky we are each time we eat!
8. Make a change
どうやら世界は広くて、自分なんてちっぽけかもしれないと思う時、
まずは近くの大切なもの ー自分、家族や友達のために料理ができる幸せを思い出して！
Our world is pretty big and we're very small - but through cooking, and powering the lives of those closest to us, we can make a huge impact!
So,won't you come and cook with me?
さぁTomokaと一緒に楽しんで！
