8. Rika's TOKYO CUISINE: Edamame Rice & Steamed Pork, Chicken and Celery

In this episode, we'll be cooking rice with the increasingly popular worldwide favorite, edamame. Our main dish will be a steamed dish featuring celery, our MC Patrick's favorite. We'll layer the celery with both pork and chicken and flavor it all with a sauce made from doubanjiang, a spicy seasoning paste from China, and miso paste from Japan. This easy-to-make recipe provides a wonderfully complex blend of vegetable and meat flavors, making it the perfect dish to serve guests.
