Oh, do you...need someone to help teach you to cook? I'm not a pro or anything, but I learned from my mama, and the recipes she taught me are really tasty. They're also super duper cheap, too!!

[Because the Urarakas were hard up for money most of Ochako's life (or all of it, honestly), Mrs. Uraraka was very good at making delicious, home cooked meals on a tight budget. And in time, she passed that knowledge (and bargain hunting/couponing) down to her daughter as well. Plus, Ochako just enjoys to cook - it's a ton of fun and good food always tends to bring people together, or make them happy. And she's always enjoyed the laughter and smiles of others.]

Oh yeah!! We have more variety nowadays, taking inspiration from other cultures and their food and stuff, but my favorites will always be the traditional ones!! And hotpot is the best. I think Deku-kun actually set up a hotpot for everyone to try, so i definitely suggest it! [Clapping her hands together excitedly, Ochako beams. Someone so excited and wanting to visit her country is just...feel good vibes, man.] If you ever get to go, try to do it in April!! You'll get to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom, and they're sooo pretty!
