This grant would provide funds to have a Japanese food day called "Japanese Food Culture Day - Make Your Own Onigiri" for students studying Japanese at Renaissance High School in Detroit. The project would last one class period for five different classes, totaling 163 students. Students would make rice and roll them into onigiri with seaweed with different furikake seasonings. Students will also try drinking green tea, called "ocha." This project would be held after having studied cultural and language aspects of picnic and bento lunch foods and green tea (ocha) in previous weeks. The nutritional benefits of seaweed and green tea will be discussed before and after the food day. If they wish, students can take home a "Japanese snack kit" with the ingredients to make this Japanese snack at home, namely pre-measured rice, seaweed, furikake, and a teabag to make ocha green tea. This will encourage them to share their cultural experience with their family members.
