Author Nancy Singleton Hachisu will share with us an insider's look into life on a Japanese farm, and how food, love, community and life come together in rural Japan.
In this talk, Nancy will share with us the rhythms of Japanese farm life, and the challenges involved in fusing two cultures under one roof in order to preserve the cultural heart of Japanese country living, while maintaining one's own essential identity. She'll give us a virtual tour of her farmhouse kitchen, a place of wood posts and beams, filled with her collection of 100-year-old baskets and bowls. She'll go over the basics for a Japanese pantry, and her recommendations for choosing them. And Nancy will also share some of her favorite recipes as well as her philosophy of cooking, such as "Touching vegetables while they are living is something every cook should do. You have to accept them, not force your will on them."
