Japanese Korean Tofu Sliders, #SundaySupper

Truth be told Japan and Korea have not always been the best of friends. But postwar generations have paved a way to forgiveness. Fascinations with the foods and songs of each other’s cultures have flourished with time. (Many Japanese also confess to addictions to Korean TV dramas.) As Shakespeare says, “What wound did ever heal but by degrees.”

Travel, besides time, also adds perspective and appreciation. So do imports. Living in the U.S. and traveling back to my home country of Japan, I’ve noticed more availability of American goods in Japan and vice-a-versa.

Here’s my gratitude list of imports into the USA:

From Japan:

Pokémon
Sailor Moon
Toyota and Honda Cars
Ramen
Sushi
Edamame
Miso
Tofu

From South Korea:

Samsung Cellphones
Hyundai Cars
Korean Barbecue
Bibimbap Rice
Ninja Note: Bee-Bim-Bop Sushi Rolls are a great intro into the world of bibimbap.
Kimchi

Feel free to add to the list in the comments section!

Japanese Korean Tofu Sliders

Zap corn niblets in the microwave, flourish your knife, a few slices and sizzles in the frying pan….And dinner is served!

The Korean kimchi (pickled cabbage) colors the mild tofu with a bolt of hot spice. But is tempered with the sweet corn niblets and slider buns.

Japanese Korean Tofu Sliders are do-able in 15 minutes or less. And will bring a dish packed with protein, iron, calcium and vitamins A, B, and C to your table!
