Sharing low-carb recipes and life recipes for living a happier life. I share recipes and health information that are easy to follow, whether you want to improve your constitution, are thinking about starting low-carb, or have already started. □ Why I started the YouTube channel "Naoyo Kitchen" When you hear "low-carb," you probably imagine it mainly as a way of eating for dieting or for people with diabetes, but for me, cutting carbs turned out to be a great fit for improving my own constitution. I used to have a very weak constitution (severe atopic dermatitis, hay fever, chronic fatigue, anemia, menstrual pain, skin problems, poor circulation, sugar addiction, post-meal drowsiness, depression), but after starting low-carb, I was able to improve both my physical and mental health in just one to two months.

INSTRUCTIONS

Instructions

  1. 1

    Sprinkle cooking sake over the chicken breast, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and heat in the microwave. Drape the wrap loosely rather than stretching it tight.

    0:41~5 min
  2. 2

    While it heats, cut the aromatics. Roll up the shiso leaves, cut them in half, and slice into thin strips.

    1:07~2 min
  3. 3

    Cut the daikon radish sprouts to about half their length. Use 2 packs for one serving.

    Remove the pit from the umeboshi and pound it well with a knife into a paste.

    Drain the tofu somen thoroughly. There is no need to boil it; just drain it and use it as is.

    2:57~1 min

    Take out the heated chicken breast and shred it finely with chopsticks. Be careful not to burn yourself, as it is hot.
