Dashi is the basis and necessity of Japanese foods.
Japanese foods contain the Umami taste
in itself. This Dashi taste which has rich of Umami was an identity in Japanese
foods. When we talk about Japanese foods, we must remind the taste or flavour
of the dishes. The Dashi taste is the most important part in Japanese foods as
the butter in the French.
Kanoya is a bland company producing a high-end food
from Fukuoka, Western island Kyushu. Kanoya basically was run as a Dashi
producer as several variation of blended Dashi. They had developed their
business as the “taste and flavour company” which produce various condiments or
foods. The origin of this company was a bag of Dashi. This pack was used like
as the tea bag, dipped in hot water and use a thick essence for the daily
foods.
The dinner courses were cooked with the local
ingredients and products from Kayanoya; the dressing sauce of salad, Dashi soup
for the pots, sauce for Sashimi (not only say sauce). The course was formed six
dishes as the traditional Japanese style full course. All dishes were designed
as the modern Japanese style.
The course was formed, Starter, Vegetable soup (soup
from the lands), Mukouduke (Sashimi), seasonal dish from the kitchen, small
dish of grandmother from Nagano (traditional style foods), Main course (choice
from the lists) and dessert. The course was started with the sweet light liquor.

The Twenty Six Martyrs Museum, Mishawaka, Nagasaki, Japan [The pilgrimage tour around Nagasaki]
The place we should think about the Spanish colonization through the modern ages.
The first meeting to Christian in Japan
When I visited to Nishizaka, it was rainy day. Though the spring will be
changed to early summer, it was cold and wet day in May. Nishizaka is a small
hill in front of the main station of Nagasaki. Pedestrians walked up to the
hill to get the museum and small church to pray the twentysix martyrs on
Momoyama era.
The history of Martyrs in Nagasaki
This museum and church was officially assigned as the pilgrimage spot in Nagasaki. The martyrdom in Nagasaki had happened on 1597 under the Toyotomi government in Momoyama era. The international trade between European countries and Japan had rapidly developed the past 30 years. On 1596, minor trouble between Portuguese and Spanish and between the society of Jesuit and Order of Friars Minor occurred the Saint Phillipe case. The Japanese Slave trade had become the trigger of this historical event. The governor, Hideyoshi Toyotomi had announced the Statement of Expulsion of Christian padre on 1587. But the statement had been watered down, because the Japanese society had emphasized the importance and benefit of the international trade instead of the Christian. After Saint Phillipe case which the Spanish crews remark about the expansion of the colony of Spain with the Catholic Church, which might have never recognized the truth of event, expulsion had developed to the martyrdom. From the view point of the Japanese government, the Catholic Church and countries which expanded their territories with unethical means had seemed the crisis.
The twenty five martyrs had brought from Osaka and Kyoto to Nagasaki.
The journey was cold mid-winter season. Twenty Japanese, four Spanish, one
Mexican and one Portuguese had been sentence to a punishment at Nishizaka,
Nagasaki.
All countries which had been colonized by Spain and Portugal,
Philippines, Cuba, South American countries or several African countries, were
still under the difficulty of the development.
