Make Haste Slowly and Celebrate!

We are all proud of our heritage.  As we move along our lives, our evolution always brings us back to our roots.

 Our faster pace day after day leaves us craving for time.  More time to spend with our loved ones, more time to do and truly enjoy the things we love.

Today we celebrate the life of a woman who created a company 300 years ago at a time when women did not put together worldwide corporations.

With the same love and care that Kikkoman puts into brewing one of our favorite ingredients in the kitchen, we approach our family lives, and invite you to make haste slowly: take the time for perfection of that which makes you utterly happy and whole.

We have watched and incredible film that gives us a rare glimpse at the power of creeds that have taken Kikkoman far.  You can also watch it here

We love that in discovering Kikkoman, we told you how we integrated soy sauce into our traditional cuisine celebrating our Kikko de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo) ,and then we shared with you how we used it in our acquired traditions at Thanksgiving. 

In the end, we hold that Kikkoman, a staple in our pantry, is an amazing product has come a long way thanks to its creeds.
 
There are 16 creeds that have made Kikkoman what is still today.   These are amazing creeds that are definitively not restricted to business life.  We believe wholeheartedly some of them and practice them even inadvertently everyday. 

At Cool Moms Cool Tips, those are:

Give - Give to society as much as you can
Educate - it is our responsibility
Tradition - Preserve discipline and preserve tradition

In bringing up our children, their education is our responsibility since it will become our legacy to the world: raising integral members of society.  As we create and uphold our traditions and heritage we almost always end up around the table.  And so, we have a wonderful opportunity for you to share with us your favorite heritage recipe with which you will celebrate your family from today on, and with which you solemnly promise to make haste slowly, savor life, your cooking and your family time :-)

 To enter the contest, leave us your recipe.  If you don't cook, tell us which is your favorite heritage meal.

The winning concoction will receive a Kikkoman basket valued at  $50!
