  • Yumi and Jen Wong - talk Inheritance in Cooking...
    Apr 26 2026

    Special guest host Jennifer Wong is going to be onstage with Yumi at this year's Sydney Writers Festival's GREAT DEBATE. It's always an absolute hoot and you can find out more here...


    But the two foodie loving ladies get to hang out on today's episode and talk about their mothers, Mum cooking tips, and an incredible slice that Yumi has since made several times from Aussie food teacher and author, Belinda Jeffery. Belinda very generously shares her amazing recipe (that her mum used to love!) here.

  • Japanese Fine Omelette
    Apr 21 2026

    Throwing together a Poké Bowl or Donburi (or "Buddha Bowl" if we must) is a fantastic exercise in customising a dish to suit both individual taste and making use of what's sitting in your fridge!


    Having some stand-by ingredients like seaweed salad, a sprinkling of furikake, crunchy fried onions, and the classic Kim-Chi - will set you up to succeed with a bowl that is really tasty but also healthy and colourful. FANTASTIC!


    Yumi has a very simple Japanese Omelette recipe to share that'll cost you almost no time but will totally elevate your dish.


    Try it by whisking together 2 eggs with a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of sugar.
