[Sagan Tosu] Jun Nishikawa's October Meal Record Summary


Things I was conscious of when preparing meals in October. A certain trick to support the player's performance.


Well, I've finally reached the records for October.

There are many episodes I'd like to write about, but first, the meal records.

October 1st (Wed) Day off meal
Sagabiyori germinated enzyme brown rice, mackerel flakes, okra, seaweed and oyster mushroom soup, homemade tofu with goya tsukudani, Malabar spinach and whitebait natto, stir-fried squid with garlic, chicken gizzard with green onion salt sauce, pink grapefruit, persimmon, gold kiwi, nutritious salad, beef tendon and daikon radish, avocado and tuna cream cheese yukhoe, boiled egg, salt-grilled isaki fish
As you can see from the color, the beef tendon and daikon radish were a bit too strong...
October 2nd
Sagabiyori germinated enzyme brown rice with whitebait, Malabar spinach and horse mackerel flake natto, persimmon, pineapple, pink grapefruit, ginger-boiled squid, sweet potato coconut mash, shredded daikon radish with myoga ginger and shiso mayo, goya with plum salt kelp, fish flake and oyster mushroom soup, beef tendon stew, nutritious salad, tuna garlic steak with avocado condiment ponzu, boiled egg, salt-grilled mackerel, two types of mushrooms and chicken tenderloin sautéed with salt, pepper, and kabosu citrus

On this day, I also grilled and ate saury on my home balcony.
When I cook white rice, I cook it with bone broth.

One of the things I work on daily when making meals for the player is using bone broth, a stock made by simmering meat on the bone for 4 hours, in my cooking.


What is good about cooking rice with bone broth?

・Amino acids derived from collagen support the repair of muscles, tendons, and joints
・Easy to digest and absorb even when fatigued
・Provides mineral replenishment, supplementing nutrients easily lost through sweat
・Gently regulates internal inflammation after hard training

The amount eaten basically differs for each player, but since the amount a single player eats at one time doesn't change that much, I make it my own challenge to see how much I can build up the nutritional value per meal.

October 3rd
Chicken breast marinated in chives and hot spring egg bowl with rice cooked in bone broth, goya, winter melon and cucumber salad, paprika butter soboro, seaweed and chive namul, Malabar spinach natto, persimmon, mandarin orange, pink grapefruit, pineapple, ginger-fried pork fillet with long yam and snap peas, grilled hokke fish with yuzu daikon radish oroshi, nutritious salad, mushroom mizutaki hot pot with mochi, kabosu and green onion sauce, salt-grilled salmon, boiled egg, rice ball

Place salmon fillet, broccoli, sliced garlic, clams, olive oil, and black pepper on parchment paper, seal it, and bake in the oven.
The main dish for this day was Saga beef hamburger steak.
I made it with almost no binder, so it was soft, but I couldn't cook it well, so I hid it with a fried egg and sautéed garland chrysanthemum.
The side vegetables were white eggplant and garland chrysanthemum.

This was the day I went out for lunch with four of the restaurant staff.

It's rare for us all to be able to eat together slowly, so it was a precious and good day.
After getting home, I hurried to make the athlete's meal.
I started cooking at 4 PM, so it was quite a rush.

Takikomi gohan with shredded bone broth meat, bunapi mushrooms, and chestnuts
The chestnuts were fluffy and delicious

I made a lot of things in October too.
Tomorrow's practice, the next game, today's meal becomes the strength.
I want to deliver the importance of food like that every day
is what I thought while cooking every day.

Now that I'm summarizing, I feel relieved and settled that the season is over, but I also feel like it's not my life without making athlete meals.

I have many things to look forward to, like wondering what I'll make next season or meeting new players.
I want to enjoy my short off-season while also managing my own physical condition.
