That would have to be Onsen Tamago for sure. Literally it means hot spring egg as it's traditionally cooked in a hot spring. But this is no ordinary boiled egg. The trick is to slowly raise its internal temperature to 160 degrees. The yolk comes out firm yet silky smooth and the white is like a loose custard that melts as it hits your tongue. Served in a dashi broth it makes for a simple accompaniment to a bowl of rice for breakfast, but it's fantastic in soups, pastas and on salads.

Slow poached, massaged octopus. So tender. Wow.

This question is like asking to choose between children!

If I had to choose just one dish as my favorite in all Japanese cuisine, it would be the pairing of hot, steamy salted edamame with a cold quality sake. That would be perfection.

Baked Mochi. It's best when it is a little bit warm but fine at room temperature as well.
