Hello! I'm Tomoko Matsunaga from Japan. my host mom, Jan("JanRoundOz"she and her husband Russell are great cook, check their recipe!) introduced me this website about 3 years ago, and ever since, whenever I need to serch for the recipe,I use this site! I am currently in Australia and studying cookery. I learnt a lot of cooking tips that I didnt know from school and It's great to learn cooking with people who are also interested in cooking! I love cooking at home and I try to cook different food everyday like my host parents used to do! ;) Eventhough I am Japanese, my favourite cuisine is Italian (yet, I still love Japanese food)and most of the time the food that I make is Italian. but nowdays, Im also into Thai food and I love the flavour of Coriander! I'd love to learn more about cookin and great recipes from all of you who are cooking expert!!!
