[Bunbun Chopper Utilization Guide] The first thing you should make after buying one! Recommended "Yamagata Dashi" | 10 Selected Recipes ① My first post, including an introduction

Nice to meet you. My name is HM, and I am in charge of recipe development, filming, and editing for the Bunbun Chopper.
I have decided to write my first article on the official Note. This is my very first "Note" post.

I am usually in charge of everything from planning to filming, editing, and posting cooking videos for social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
Every day, I go grocery shopping, stand in the kitchen, operate the camera, and finish up using Photoshop and Premiere Pro. I have been doing this steadily through self-study.

At home, I live with my husband, who is the same age as me, and my daughters who are a company employee, a university student, and a high school student. Even though it's busy, we laugh and scramble around... I'm struggling through each day.

In this Note, with the hope that "I want you to enjoy using the Bunbun Chopper even more!", I will introduce 10 recipes that I have actually made and felt
this is where the Bunbun Chopper was most usefulin order.

For this first installment, I will introduce the recipe that I want to recommend loudly, saying, "This is the first thing you should make after buying one!"

[10 Selected Recipes #1] Yamagata Dashi
"You should try making this first after buying a Bunbun Chopper!"
Have you ever heard of "Yamagata Dashi"?
It is a versatile side dish that goes great with rice, made by finely chopping summer vegetables like cucumbers, eggplants, myoga ginger, and shiso leaves, and mixing them with seasonings.
It's great on chilled tofu, on top of rice, or served with somen noodles. Once you take a bite, the scent of summer spreads softly.

That is exactly where the Bunbun Chopper comes in for "Yamagata Dashi".

◆ It's super easy because mincing is done in an instant!
This recipe is actually mainly about "just chopping".
Since you have to mince each vegetable, it takes time with a kitchen knife, and sometimes your hands get tired...

But with the Bunbun Chopper, it's solved all at once!

Just roughly chop the vegetables, put them in the Bunbun Chopper, and pull the string!
Along with the satisfying sound of it spinning "bun-bun," they become finely chopped in no time.

When I think about mincing this amount using a cutting board and a kitchen knife...
No matter how many times I make it, this is the moment I deeply feel, "Ah, I'm so glad I have a Bunbun Chopper."
