It's got the cooking process and the reasons for it. I think eating delicious things that are good for your body is really important.
I've published my first cookbook, "Nattokumeshi." I think it's a new type of cookbook, since it pays attention to the whole process of cooking, and the reason for this and the meaning of that. When you understand the process of cooking and the meaning behind things, you can apply those skills and use them for more than just cooking. Like, "if I boil this ingredient, then it gets way more nourishing and it's like a different art of cooking" or "this ingredient too sugary, so to take out the sugariness of it, we should cook it with pork." I think eating delicious things that are good for your body is really important.
I went to the Dominican Republic on "Discovering the World! Japanese in These Kinds of Places" and oh man, it was super far away! We left Haneda Airport after midnight, and just to get there, had to transfer twice, but we couldn't come in because of bad weather, so it took about 31 hours to get there. Coming back, we transferred once and it only took 21 hours. When it comes to Dominican food, they use a lot of bananas. They steam, cook over open fire, or just grill bananas so they're not sweet, and there's also a lot of coconut-flavoured things. As far as the food... I think Japanese food might be more delicious (laughs). There aren't that many chances to go to the Dominican Republic, so it was really interesting.
In my free time, I've been tidying up the magazines I've collected. I've just kind of let them start piling up and left them lying around, so it was kind of terrible (laughs). They're almost all related to food, but as they're primary sources, it's not that easy to search through them all at once. I bring home the magazines one by one, and then cut out the pages I need and keep them in a file in my living room, basicallly classifying them. Like, "I don't need this, but I'll keep this," it got kind of overwhelming, so it took me about four days to do. I think I ended up throwing out about 300 magazines. It's still not entirely finished, but for me, I've reached a stopping point, so it was a bit hard for me to flip the switch again (laughs)
