Food + Groceries

All of the items listed below are MUST HAVE items for cooking Japanese dishes.
The basic components of Japanese food are "SA-SHI-SU-SE-SO":
さ[SA]: Sa-tou (sugar) 
し[SHI]: Shio (salt)
す[SU]: Su (Vinegar)
せ[SE]: Soysauce
そ[SO]: Miso

I've listed other items I use on a frequent basis as well, so check it out & let me know if you have any questions!
