Thus, I not only know what is on board and where, but i also know what has been consumed during a certain period certain number of people.<\/p>\n<p>Cultural background, likes, don&#8217;t likes, allergies, etc also have an influence. One sailing companion could not eat fish, shells, etc for health reasons. My current sailing companion, my Japanese sailing friend Shigeo, loves\/needs food coming out of the sea. In contrast to the European cuisine, the Japanese cuisine doesn&#8217;t know fruits to be part of a meal, but only in small volumes as desserts.<\/p>\n<p>For canned fish the influence is not so much. We just bought a bunch of cans with tuna. I also still some canned mackerel on board.<\/p>\n<p>Immediately prior to departure, the right amount of fruits and vegetables needs to be purchased and daily watched for what needs to be eaten next.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, we saw that 2 mangos and the first bananas need to be eaten. Shigeo, the chef on board, comes from the Japanese cuisine, and I love Japanese cuisine. Thus we have perfect match. But he doesn&#8217;t know how to prepare a meal with fruits as a main part. So I had to take over for last night&#8217;s dinner and made pancakes. European pancakes without baking powder etc. Shigeo, always interested in new unknown recipes watched carefully how I made pancakes. While I baked the big chunk of pancakes, he chopped bananas and mangos.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing him, I filled the last two pancakes with mozzarella cheese, folded them and put them back into the frying pan with only the smallest heat possible and closed it with a lid to let the cheese melt. A cheese pancake was the start. Next round was banana-peanut butter pancake, which was followed by a mango filled pancake. It was not bad.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Shigeo made a light lunch and guess what he made. He took the last 2 pancake left over from last night&#8217;s dinner, filled them with cheese and served it with the today&#8217;s variation of cabbage salad.<\/p>\n<p>During our lunch he asked can these pancakes also eaten with this or that. It became the main topic. Sometimes I said straight &#8220;no&#8221;. Sometimes I said &#8220;yes&#8221; but thinking a bit longer I said that I think the real Japanese version is the better one.<\/p>\n<p>Being now more than 40 years in Japan, I feel that European-Japanese fusion food is not the best. However, Japanese-Korean fusion food, which I discovered on one of my many business trips to Korea, is excellent.<\/p>\n<p>As Japan has the highest number of people above 100 years, the Japanese cuisine can be regarded as extremely healthy.<\/p>\n<p>Topics talked about while sailing in the Southern Pacific between Bora-Bora and Penrhyn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I prepare for a longer sail, I want to have canned\/packed food for 3 month on board for the number of crew members.
