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. I share this content hoping people can keep it up in a fun and delicious way! My goal is "to bring energy to the world through food!" □ Profile Naoyo Fujimoto, Low-Carb Recipe Researcher Since childhood I had a weak body, and I overcame various conditions like depression and atopic dermatitis through a "low-carb" way of eating. Wanting to share with as many people as possible the idea that "our bodies and minds are made of what we eat," I started hosting low-carb cooking classes. I am currently

INSTRUCTIONS

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients. Gather the tofu somen, chicken tenderloin, okra, cucumber, carrot, kimchi, onsen tamago, and so on.

    2:18~2 min
  2. 2

    Julienne the cucumber. Cutting it fine makes it easier to eat and helps it cling to the noodles.

    3:00~2 min
  3. 3

    Remove the tendon from the chicken tenderloin. If that's too much trouble, sprinkle it with sake and microwave it instead.

    3:59~2 min
  4. 4

    Once the water comes to a boil, add the okra and blanch briefly until the color turns vivid, then remove.

    4:50~1 min
  5. 5

    Boil the chicken tenderloin in the same water. About 5 minutes, until the inside changes color. You can also heat it at 600W in the microwave.

    5:31~5 min
  6. 6

    Turn off the heat, remove the chicken tenderloin, let it cool slightly, then shred it into bite-sized pieces.

    6:17~2 min
  7. 7

    Place the tofu somen in a bowl and pour in the cold noodle soup base or mentsuyu to make the sauce.

    6:49~1 min
  8. 8

    Add vinegar. It works to slow the rise in blood sugar.

    7:04~1 min
  9. 9

    Place the shredded chicken tenderloin and the boiled okra on top of the noodles. This makes the dish more satisfying.

    7:36~1 min
  10. 10

    Arrange the cucumber and carrot on top for color. Carrot is good for the skin and brightens the dish.

    8:11~1 min
  11. 11

    Pile on plenty of kimchi and drop the onsen tamago in the center. This adds protein and makes it more filling.

    9:39~1 min
  12. 12

    Finish with a drizzle of sesame oil and a sprinkle of white sesame seeds, plus chili oil if you like.

    10:22~1 min
