Tofu is a staple of Japanese cuisine and is consumed in many forms. It is commonly seen in its soft, jelly-like state at supermarkets across Japan. But did you know that it can also be transformed into a crunchy snack and eaten in the form of chips? Their unique texture has been known since the 10th century.
When you think about Japanese culture, you might picture tea ceremonies, cherry blossoms, or a polite bow with a greeting. But underneath those traditions lies another essential idea, giri (duty, obligation, social responsibility).
Fluttering cherry blossoms, tranquil shrines, and delicious sushi. These images might pop in your mind the moment you think of Japan, but the country’s charm goes beyond these famous icons.
