""Spring brings night cherry blossoms, summer brings stars, autumn brings the full moon, and winter brings snow. That's enough reason to enjoy sake. If it still doesn't taste good, it's a sign that something within oneself is ailing."

"The 24 solar terms define April 20th to May 5th as 'Grain Rain' (Kokuu)."

"As the soft spring rain nourishes the fields, 'Grain Rain' marks the end of spring. It's the time when preparations for planting rice and sowing seeds begin, coinciding with Golden Week and the 'Spring Doyo' (from April 18th to around May 5th, 18 days before Risshun) when events like the tea-picking song '88th Night' (88th day from Risshun) are held."

"Like Matsuo Basho's haiku 'Going spring, birds singing, fish eyes teary', during 'Grain Rain' one strongly feels the passing of spring, overlapping events, and the swift flow of time."

"'Grain Rain' signifies the time when rain brings forth a hundred grains, and its seasonal ingredients include ① new burdock ② new onions ③ bamboo shoots."

"① Burdock, resembling muddy tree roots, is uniquely eaten by the Japanese. It's rich in dietary fiber, balancing soluble and insoluble fiber to promote intestinal activity, prevent constipation, and aid in weight management."

"② New onions, in season from March to May, alleviate nausea, stomach discomfort, improve blood circulation, and may relieve headaches and shoulder stiffness common during this period."

"③ Bamboo shoots, known for their unique aroma and crunchy texture, surprisingly contain protein, albeit not as much as meat or fish. With 3.6g of protein per 100g, it's a recommended ingredient for those seeking protein while dieting."

"'Grain Rain' is the most beautifully green season throughout the year. Why not take a stroll in parks or forests surrounded by lush greenery?"

"I'll share the simplest stress-relief method: observing natural landscapes or taking a walk in nature."

"The two essential elements for delicious meals are being hungry and savoring seasonal ingredients. Let's enjoy seasonal delicacies, nourish our minds and bodies, and tackle life's challenges every day."
