In Videos: 'Cooking with Dog' Makes Low-Fat Gyudon
I don’t know why we’ve never blogged about this video series before. You'd think Robyn would have been all over this—it's Japanese, it's cute, and it involves animals.
And before you go there, it's about cooking along with a dog. A dog named Francis, who, as a friend pointed out, makes surprisingly sophisticated recipes. I mean, Cooking with Dog could easily have gone into superkitsch territory, in which the food was secondary to the talking-dog shtick.
But, it doesn't. Probably because it’s from Japan and because the dog, a poodle, is of French origin. And, as you know, both cultures take their food very seriously. [Get cookin' with the video, after the jump.]

A healthy version of Gyudon. very nice!
my suggestion for more "less meat" dishes: increased availability of thinly sliced beef & pork in the US!
They are fabulous with tons of vegetables and cook fast (energy saving, too!)
I can find them at Asian stores, but it'd be nice to be able to buy them from regular grocery stores.

Good thing she's cooking up hangover food, that dog looks like it had a helluva night.

Low fat gyudon. That's like low-fat burgers. It's edible but...
