Thanks! I've been trying to gather advice and so far a lot of tips I've heard for beginners really helps. I haven't been able to find many English websites with recipes that would work well for me though, since they often require ovens and the measurements aren't the same.

So for recipes I've mostly been using a few Japanese books I bought. Also, my future mother-in-law is an excellent cook so almost every weekend we've been cooking together and I've learned a lot of things. It helps since she has a fully stocked kitchen I can access so I can try ingredients that I wouldn't feel confident buying on my own.

Mostly, I've just been paying more attention to flavor combinations and ingredients and trying out different combos. I'm not yet at the point where I can make a full Japanese meal since it requires so many side dishes that I don't think I'd be able to eat them in a timely manner unless I make a schedule and stuck to it every day.
