Then, people started mixing this rice and millet combination with a variety of vegetables, such as weeds and yams. This early version of <em>Takikomi-gohan<\/em> is called <em>Katemeshi<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Later on, during the <em>Muromachi<\/em> period, Japanese people made a similar dish to <em>Katemeshi<\/em> called <em>Kawarimeshi<\/em>. <em>Kawarimeshi<\/em> is similar to <em>Katemeshi<\/em>, but uses quality ingredients such as barley, beans, and vegetables, as well as more seasonal ingredients to maximize flavor.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5416 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/646333_l-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/646333_l-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/646333_l-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/646333_l-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/646333_l-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/646333_l-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/646333_l-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Today, there are several varieties of <em>Takikomi-gohan<\/em> depending on where you go in Japan.
