Jimoto Winter Favourites

Gathering Around the Table with Jimoto this Winter

As the nights grow longer and the chill sets in, there’s something comforting about gathering around a warm table with dishes that nourish and satisfy. Winter is all about depth of flavour, slow-cooked moments, and meals that bring people together.

At Jimoto Foods, we believe cold weather calls for bold, umami-packed meals—dishes that warm you from the inside out while still feeling easy and approachable. Whether you’re hosting friends for a cozy night in or just cooking something special for yourself, we’ve got three winter favourites to get you inspired.

Miso Clam Broth 
There’s nothing more comforting on a cold night than a steaming bowl of broth—and this miso clam version hits all the right notes. Infused with our Jimoto Umami Powder, it’s savoury, aromatic, and deeply satisfying. The sweetness of fresh clams balances beautifully with the saltiness of miso, while the umami powder adds that extra layer of richness.

Wagyu Flank Steak
For something a little more indulgent, this wagyu flank steak is a winter showstopper. Marinated in our Shiso Teriyaki, the steak caramelises beautifully as it cooks, developing a glossy, flavour-packed crust. The shiso brings a subtle floral note that lifts the deep richness of the wagyu. 

Karaage with Miso Hot Honey
Crispy, juicy and downright addictive, this karaage is winter comfort food at its finest. But we’re taking it up a notch with a drizzle of Miso Hot Honey—made with our Jimoto Miso Hot Sauce. The result? A spicy-sweet glaze that coats the golden fried chicken in layers of bold flavour. It’s the perfect share plate for a casual dinner with friends, or a decadent snack to enjoy with a Japanese whisky highball.

Whether you’re curled up on the couch or sharing a meal with loved ones, these dishes bring a little warmth and excitement to the table. Set the scene this winter with Jimoto Foods—flavour-forward, effortless, and made for sharing.

Happy cooking!
