The TV anime Aoashi, based on the manga by Kobayashi Yūgo, is crossing over with the beloved NHK cooking programme Kyō no Ryōri (きょうの料理) for a special collaborative episode titled “Kyō no Ryōri: Beat the Heat! Nutrition-Charge Menu”. The episode airs on NHK Eテレ on Monday, June 22, 2026 at 21:00 JST, with a repeat broadcast on Tuesday, June 23, 2026 at 11:30 JST.
About Kyō no Ryōri
Kyō no Ryōri is a long-running NHK cooking show that introduces recipes spanning Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisine, with professional chefs demonstrating techniques hands-on for home cooks.
What to Expect
The collaboration episode puts the spotlight on Ichijō Hana’s handwritten meal plan — a detail from within the Aoashi story — and uses it as the basis for a series of real, cook-along recipes. Food researcher Kikawada Toshie — who brings a unique perspective as both the wife of a former J-League professional footballer and the mother of a professional tennis player — will recreate the dishes on screen.
Highlighted recipes include:
- Canned mackerel and summer vegetable curry (さば缶と夏野菜のカレー)
- Additional Aoashi-inspired dishes to be revealed during the broadcast
Beyond being ideal for athletes and active individuals, the recipes are also designed to help viewers combat summer fatigue (夏バテ) — a common seasonal concern in Japan’s hot and humid summers.
Broadcast Schedule
- First broadcast: Monday, June 22, 2026 — 21:00 JST on NHK Eテレ
- Repeat broadcast: Tuesday, June 23, 2026 — 11:30 JST on NHK Eテレ
