Ok, so it is very hard to find RECIPIES for Japanese style desserts online. I know because I have tried (entered 2 different culinary/management competitions and currently competing in a third), the best thing to do is to experiment. I know it can suck to have to do that muof ch experimentation but thats your best bet. I can offer you a couple cool ideas (not Japanese, more Asia in general): Chocolate covered fortune cookies, chop sticks made entirely out of chocolate, make your own Poky (don't know about that one)...

P.S.

Is this competition FHA Hero or ProStart by any chance??

Simple recipe for shime-saba x]

get one saba~ cut off its head, and fillet both sides
discard head and spine x3
sprinkle sea salt over both sides of each fillet and let sit for 1h30m
rinse off the salt
and gently peel off the skin~~
in a bath of vinegar (composing of 9 parts rice vinegar, 5 parts sugar, and 1 part salt) marinate the saba for 12 min :3
remove, cut off the outside of the stomach sack (the rib cages) and gently pull out the bones lining the middle of each fillet~
serve immediately as sashimi or nigir, or wrap, first, in wax paper, then in plastic wrap to save for later/other use x]


fun ways to serve~~~
w/ a torche or some other source of heat x]
lightly grill saba~
cut saba in 1/2" diagonal slices at a 45 degree angle going up the body x]
and serve w/ hon-wasabi, thin slices of lemon, and thinly sliced negi (green onions)
over a bed of rice (it's really nice when you eat the whole slice of lemon, rind and all w/ the saba x])

top slices of the saba w/ finely grated ginger and negi x]
serve w/ a bit of shoyu and hon-wasabi

In the darkness under the moon he plots
In the silence of the night he kills.

Well, you can use extra energy in your mind and body and google search or look in a recepie book.


Thanks for reading!

no, it's the annual food competition at Tidewater Comm. College, and sure some remotely asian desserts would work

You sort of need to clarify which Botanical Garden in Texas and there is an Asian and/or Japanese festival in most of them every year, some times more than one. But if you have bento box, you don't have to wait for festival for a spectacular picnic in them.

San Antonio's Japanese Garden is my favorite. The rock cliffs and water falls are incredible. My father proposed to my mother there in the 1940s - he always did have great taste.

Houston has a beautiful one Japanese Garden near where the annual orchid show is held.

Fort Worth has one with the most serene and impression rock across from the Tea House. Its large enought that they had a Taiko band set up on it once.

There is one in Dallas and another small one in Plano.


Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life.
