#shojin ryori
Last month my King man blessed me with a beautiful introduction to Shojin Ryori.
There’s a lot of information on this style of cooking & I highly suggest those interested in Zen Buddhism, Tea, Conscious Eating, Vegan/Vegetarianism, Japan, Foraging, Tofu, or just food in general to take a deeper look into it. Shojin Ryori cuisine is basically the foundation of the Japanese Kaiseki meal style and is just generally really quite interesting.
