Masahiro Kasahara, the creator of this recipe, commented, "I made this recipe for a refrigerator at home so that I could reproduce it at home.

I devised this recipe with an eye to making it easy to prepare by using ingredients that can be found in the refrigerator at home, ingredients that can be purchased at the local supermarket, and the returned goods of Tsuyama City, so that it can be reproduced at home. We believe that many people do not know how to cook with dried meat and other returned goods, so we hope that you will use them as part of your home cooking and feel the goodness of Tsuyama City's ingredients, and furthermore, that you will actually want to visit Tsuyama City."

Tsuyama City has been operating the Tsuyama City-directed hometown tax payment website "Tsuyafuru" (URL: ) since August 12, 2024.

Since the establishment of the "Furusato" tax payment system in 2008, Tsuyama City has been collecting donations through tax payment portal sites*1 such as "Satofuru" and "Rakuten Furusato", etc. In 2023, the 16th year of the system, the number of donors reached 50,308 (2.4 times as many as in the previous year) and the amount of donations reached 856.27 million yen (2.2 times as much as in the previous year).
