The art of chopsticks

I love the challenge of eating with chop sticks because it automatically makes me slow down so much more when I do (as opposed to absolutely inhaling my food otherwise).
🥢 Taking your time to chew food properly is an important factor in digestion.
🥢Taking your time to eat slower will also allow you to have a better gauge of when you are full.
🥢It will also give you an opportunity to thoroughly enjoy the different flavours & textures that the meal has to offer.
Pictured is a few pages from a book I’ve been reading titled ‘A little book of Japanese contentments’ written by Erin Niimi Longhurst, touching on a few different food ideologies which I found extremely interesting in the Japanese culture 🇯🇵
The bowl consists of a few of my favourites:
Soba noodles
King oyster mushrooms
Broccoli
Bean sprouts
Tofu
Bok Choy
Coriander
Sriracha
