Cute and delicious food art
Hi, I'm Yuki. I make cartoon-like food art to express my love for healthy eating.
Natural ingredients only
There's no need to use chemicals to dye your food. Nature is your ingredients.
Vegan and Vegetarian
What you see on Yukitchen doesn't contain any meat products.
Except, you know, Jabba the Hutt.
Childhood into a dish
My food art is inspired by my inner child.
Cooking is a place for me to express my regression, with a table spoon of nostalgia.
Gluten Free! Domo kun Biscotti
Domo kun is underestimated in Japan. You see him everywhere outside of Japan but not so much in his homeland. One of the many reasons why Japanese should travel more is that they can find out how much our culture is affecting a lot of people outside of our country. I was shocked to see how many…
Rilakkuma Inari
In 1967, John Lennon wrote a song called “All you need is love”. He also admitted hitting women, “any women”, he said, and abandoned one of his children. He was a diligent peace activist, and wrote many songs about love and peace. He explained, “This is why I am always about peace, you see. It’s…
Neatloaf
It’s not meatloaf. It’s “Neatloaf”! Neatloaf and I first met at a restaurant called Jyoti-Bihanga in San Diego back in 2011. It was love at first “bite”. It was so juicy, so tender, and it gave me a sense of hope that I will have no problem becoming fully vegetarian one day. It was one of those…
Ninjaga (Vegan Nikujaga)
Ninjas are definitely getting fewer nowadays. But just a few hundred years ago in Japan during the Edo period, there were still so many of them. One day, the shogun, -the military leader of Japan, invited a ninja to his castle. I mean, who wouldn’t? Shoguns are just like us; we all want to meet ninjas! So when…
No Oil Creamy Hummus
I really don’t know how to put this, but I’m really not used to oils, any oils. I know many of you love olive oils, and I tried so many times to like it in my life, but it is what it is; I really prefer my food without oil. So I made hummus without…
Cactuar Lasagna with Sweet Potatoes
As a “healthy” food creator, I’ve long noticed that there is a peculiar trend going on about being “vegan”. This Lasagna I made is vegan, but the vegan part is not really important for me. Nowadays being vegan is often perceived as a status rather than a choice, and I’m failing miserably catching up with…
Jabba The Pie
When people tell you who they are, Maya Angelou famously said, believe them. However, when people try to tell you who you are, don’t believe them. But when they keep calling you “cutie pie” even though you don’t really know them, forget Maya and believe nothing but your own pie. You see, life is like…
Rilakkuma Scrambled Eggs
Most young kids will run after mom if she tries to leave them alone with a stranger. But according to a study, kids who haven’t bonded well with their mothers—psychologists call it “insecurely attached”—will rather stay behind with a security blanket. And in my case, it was always stuffed animals. They say kids with secure…
Rilakkuma Burger
For the past couple of years, I’ve been on a quest for making the perfect veggie burgers. It’s been a quite mission to create the burgers that have everything that we need. But I think I’m finally comfortable enough to announce to the world that I’ve reached my goal today. My veggie burgers have finally hit my high…
No Sugar Banana Bread
So far, my banana bread is my number-one requested food in real life. My people really like this, so I keep baking and baking the same thing; because I love validations. I think we all need them sometimes. My banana bread is probably tasty beacsue; One, no added sugar — If you use 4 ripe bananas, you really…
