We didn't have a tour with Anne & Lauren. We had our tour with Hannah from the company "arigato TRAVEL." Fortunately, Hannah was an absolute pleasure. Our tour with her amounted to the highlight of my month long trip to Japan. Initially I was a bit disappointed that byFood subcontracted their tours after hearing so many positive things about the company online. But again, Hannah was superb, delivering a tour of the highest standard. Thank you, Hannah! Thank you arigato TRAVEL!

Ryu and Ryan made our tour of Japanese food a wonderful experience! They provided interesting facts about histor of the food pand gave us recommendations on where else we can eat in other areas of Tokyo. Out of all the ramens we had on our 3 week holiday it the ones we ate on the tour were some of the best. Don't eat too much for lunch because there is a lot of food on the tour!

Discover Gluten-Free Oden Delicacies

Experience an authentic journey through Japan's culinary landscape with delectable gluten-free Oden offerings. Oden, a traditional Japanese winter dish, is known for its warm and comforting qualities, making it a must-try for food enthusiasts visiting Japan. With an array of gluten-free options, these food experiences allow everyone to enjoy this beloved dish without compromising on dietary needs.

Oden is typically a one-pot dish that combines a variety of ingredients simmered in a flavorful dashi broth. This dish is not only a staple in Japanese households but is also popular in convenience stores and restaurants across the country. Now, with gluten-free versions available, you can indulge in the rich umami flavors and textures that make Oden such a comforting dish.

Special Gluten-Free Ingredients

Traditional Oden ingredients include boiled eggs, daikon radish, konjac, and various types of fish cakes. In gluten-free Oden, certain common items like wheat flour-based fish cakes are carefully replaced with alternatives made from rice or other gluten-free flours. This thoughtful adaptation ensures you experience the authentic taste and texture, staying true to the traditional preparation methods.

The gluten-free dashi broth is a crucial element of this dish, typically made from kombu seaweed and bonito flakes. This combination creates the rich umami base that defines Oden’s characteristic flavor. Enjoy the warm embrace of a gluten-free Oden meal that is synonymous with comfort and satisfaction.

Experience Oden in Unique Settings

Embark on a gastronomic journey that offers unique opportunities to experience this incredible dish. From street food stalls to specialty restaurants, gluten-free Oden is now accessible in various settings. Explore lively markets where the aroma of simmering Oden fills the air, offering an immersive experience that satisfies both the taste buds and the wanderlust for local culture.

For those seeking a more traditional experience, private cooking classes can provide insights into preparing your own gluten-free Oden at home. Learn about the history and cultural significance of Oden while creating a dish that caters to your gluten-free diet. These hands-on sessions are perfect for those who love to cook and want to bring a piece of Japan back home in the form of recipes and techniques.

Whether you choose to savor gluten-free Oden in a vibrant city setting or craft it in a personal cooking class, the experience promises to be both delicious and educational.
