I’ve heard so much about Japan. Everyone say you must go there, it is an amazing country to visit, it is interesting, with fascinating culture, anyone will find something interesting there, there’s nature, technology, kind people, what not. I’ve also heard it is expensive there, the trip is expensive and the stay is expensive. Thus, when I was offered to join a business trip to Japan a few years back of course I jumped on the opportunity. Even though I had a 10 months old baby at the time, it sounded like a one time opportunity thing, so with all of the difficulty of leaving her at home for a week, I went for it. That and more, I even traveled there a day early, so that I can have a day to spend in Tokyo before the work week starts, and finally understand what everyone are talking about when they say Japan. Fast forward to the end of the story, lets just say that even today I know more about Japan from what other people told me about it than from my own experience.. Like they say: life is what happens while you make plans. My trip wasn’t exactly all I was looking forward to: as soon as I’ve arrived there I received an urgent call from our customer representative asking that we’ll work during the weekend, so the first thing I had to tell the Israeli team members I met was that no touring around the city, we need to work (and boy, were they happy about that..). On the following days, we worked 14 hours a day, in a room with no window. So I didn’t get to see a lot of Japan. I did get to experience some of the culture though, I learned that in a dining room of 500 employees only the 5 of us from Israel can be heard talking, I learned that they can sit 14 hours a day with their teammate and not say a word to each other, I learned that people stand in a line for the bus on the street even when there’s no bus coming in the horizons, I learned that they really like Karaoke, I learned that after a 14 hour work day, if they drink some alcohol they become much more open folks..

Anyhow, I don’t regret I went. It was still a learning experience. What I remember from the food there is the vast usage of see weeds (and so many fresh fish, but that’s irrelevant here..). Seaweed are a great source for protein. The nori is rich in vitamin A and vitamins B and is relatively low on sodium. In the noodles recipe i’m sharing today the nori seaweed, along with the ginger, give a twist to the taste, and adds an Asian style to it. You can use any type of noodles you have, but I would recommend rice noodles or bean noodles as they fit here the best.
