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.
Super Mario’s Grain Salad
Humans have no superpowers. There are no superheroes. We all know that by now. But sometimes I’m skeptical, probably because there’s a part of me who is still in denial. Perhaps I was too young when I first watched “superheroes” on TV; it gave me an illusion of hope, that there must be someone with…
No Face Yakisoba
This is a character from the film Spirited Away, one of my favorite films of all time. His name is No-Face; the spirit of having no personality. No Face is wildly known as “No Face” to some of you, but in Japanese, the spirit’s name is actually “Kaonashi”, and it simply means, “faceless”. To me,…
How to make Sake Raisin
You see, I love Rum Raisin. And one day I wondered if they love me back. According to my google search, here is what I learned: Regular Rum Raisin Recipe 1 cup raisins 1 cup dark rum 3⁄4 cup sugar 6 egg yolks 2 cups milk 2 cups heavy cream 1 tbsp. vanilla extract “6…
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…
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…
Domo-kun Christmas Pudding
When a Japanese girl keeps making Christmas pudding every month, she eventually wonders if she could break the British tradition and make it more Japan. It was a fine morning in early April when I was making my 4th Christmas Pudding in Bangkok, an idea popped up in my mind. “I think I could just ditch…
Rilakkuma Mitarashi Dango
I wonder if you have seen such a color as soft and chewy as Mitarashi amber. The golden glaze is made of soy sauce and sugar, and it covers the pearl-like sticky rice cake as known as “dango”, in Japanese. This is Mitarashi Dango, and all Japanese grew up with Mitarashi Dango, especially around 3…
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…
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…
Yubaba Miso Soup
This is Yubaba, from the film Spirited Away. She looks so scary to me; her head is bigger than a screen! But what I found scarier than her physical appearance is her magical skill of stealing people’s names, or I should say, stealing their identities. To me, she represents a modern corporation. When you work in…
