She loves using coconut aminos in place of soy sauce in meat marinades, alongside garlic and other aromatics in stir-fry sauces, dipping sauces, and sweet-salty vinaigrettes.Whether you’re trying to cut back on sodium or just looking to mix things up a little bit, coconut aminos are gluten-, wheat-, and soy-free, and lower in sodium than soy sauce.

There’s nothing like ato get your social media feed jumping, and mine is packed to the brim with bright, colorful, cream-filled creations from the newest kid on the donut-shop block: I'm Donut? (Yes, the question mark is a part of its name.)This Instagram-friendly shop has taken Japan by storm since its March 2022 launch in Nakameguro. It has since opened five locations in Japan and grown enough to justify a new, sixth location right smack in the middle of Times Square. Ryouta Hirako, chef and founder of I’m Donut?, has described the Times Square opening as a dream come true, citing a location in the bustling neighborhood as the best way to share his creation with as many people as possible.

Still, their millions of fans in Japan and worldwide have to be on to something, right? As with any otherThey were married in 1995 and went on to
