Showa Women's University (Setagaya-ku, Tokyo), in collaboration with JA Zenno Kanagawa (Hiratsuka City, Kanagawa Prefecture), Miura City Agricultural Cooperative, and JA Yokohama Hayama, has created a new recipe using Daikon and cabbage from the Miura Peninsula at Keikyu Department Store (Keikyu Department Store). Proposed to restaurants and side dish stores in (Konan Ward, Yokohama City).A total of 8 dishes, Japanese, Western and Chinese, have been adopted and it has been decided to sell them for a limited time.
At Showa Women's University, Associate Professor Masami Hara (Department of Nutrition and Dietetic Science, Faculty of Life Sciences) has held a special course "Do you Agricultural vegetables?" With the aim of increasing consumption of vegetables from the Miura Peninsula and promoting local production for local consumption. It is a practical course of industry-academia collaboration where you can experience the process of developing a product that sells in consideration of profit, effort, and appearance, and selling it to a physical store, with a curriculum that includes a harvest experience and a visit to the production area in one year.
As part of this special course, a new menu development project for restaurants in Keikyu Department Store has started in collaboration with agricultural cooperatives.Twenty-four students from the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics and the Department of Health Design, Faculty of Life Sciences participated.The students devised a menu that complements the daikon radish and cabbage, which tend to play a supporting role, such as "radish and prochute fiori salad," "radish and black pork stewed in a clay pot," and "cabbage and pork yuzu-nabe set meal." I also devised the arrangement.
This menu will be sold at 10 restaurants on the 3th floor of Keikyu Department Store (Turbo Ro di Fiori, Koshin Tea Room, Obon de Rice) and a side dish store on the 1st basement floor (Tanjinro).The sale period is from January 2019th (Thursday) to February 1th (Wednesday), 10.
