Flour dishes, dashi (broth), and blades. Osaka's kitchen.

Flour dish culture (konamon) like takoyaki, okonomiyaki, and kushikatsu, and the dashi culture of kelp and bonito. Called the "City of Foodies," Osaka is a land rich in seasonings, broths, and flour bases supporting the kitchen. Simultaneously, traditional industries like Sakai knives and incense are passed down. When thinking of a Made in Japan-first kitchen, there's joy in assembling seasonings determining the dish's taste and long-lasting blades and tools from Osaka.
