Hey there! I'm looking for traditional cooking recipes. I do find plenty of recipe suggestions on Google, but the problem is that, based on my knowledge, they don't really stick to the original recipes.
So, if anyone has a kind heart, could you share some local recipes (less mainstream ones) so I can try this type of cooking? I'd be happy to share some local French recipes from my region in return!
Don't hesitate to get in touch!

A bientôt !
 
There are many, many Japanese cooking videos on YouTube
 
Yes, I know, but the problem is that you really need to understand what is being explained. For now, I prefer to "read" rather than listen because it will be easier for me to grasp the steps.
 
Can you help narrow down the type of dishes you are interested in?
 
Simple winter or summer dishes? Balanced meals. I can even share a few recipes I have
 
How about broiled eggplant with miso?

Or marinated zucchini and eggplant? I really love this dish. I'm not sure if this is exactly how my wife makes it but it looks close.

Note for both of these, Japanese eggplant is a must. Or asian at least. The long, skinny ones, not the fat thick ones.
I don't know what you have available in France.
 
A seasonal Japanese spring dish is Bamboo Shoot Rice (Takikomi Gohan).
