Ochazuke is a very simple dish of Japanese short grain rice, an assortment of ingredients, toppings and green tea. Its name is derived from “ocha”, which is tea in Japanese and “zuke”, which means submerged.
Green tea is poured over the fluffy rice and toppings. Ochazuke is light and Japanese people usually eat it as a quick meal or small dish to end dinner. Any toppings can be used, so it’s great for leftovers.
