Cookpad Plus Winter 2026 Issued

The highly anticipated Cookpad Plus Winter 2026 has officially hit the shelves, released by Fusosha on November 28, 2025. This issue is brimming with delightful winter recipes that are perfect for the season, with plenty of innovative ideas to smarten up your daily cooking and lifestyle.

Featured Highlights

The magazine kicks off with a special focus on popular winter recipes, showcasing a ranking of the top recipes found on Cookpad last winter. Among the spotlighted recipes are fifteen renowned dishes, including a cook's treasure trove of comfort food featuring winter favorites like Chinese cabbage and daikon radish. Recipes from the prominent Cookpad creator, Nutritionalist Respi, include classic Japanese dishes and Western cuisines that you would want to recreate multiple times this winter.

Trendy Recipes and Innovations

A highlight of this issue is the introduction of the One-Plate Steamer, which won the Grand Prize at the Cookpad Food Trend Awards 2025. This innovative recipe is not only a time-saver but also promotes health by minimizing cleanup while allowing for visually appealing presentations—truly achieving a 'four birds with one stone' situation!

Additionally, the spotlight is on the rampant rise in popularity of Mala Soup (麻辣湯) among the younger generation, especially Gen Z. This hot and spicy dish is featured in a segment dedicated to trendy recipes from Cookpad, making it easy to prepare at home.

Exclusive Seasonal Calendar

The magazine also includes a handy appendix—a 3-Month Side Dish Calendar. This section compiles recipes that garnered the most access on the same day from the previous year, offering invaluable insights when you're in a dilemma about what to cook for your meals.

Special Collector's Item

A special treat for fans comes in the form of a luxurious two-piece Snoopy porcelain mug set. This set celebrates the 75th anniversary of the PEANUTS comics, showcasing various incarnations of Snoopy from 1953 to 2000. Each mug is beautifully designed, with intricate details reflecting Snoopy's whimsical expressions, adding a heartwarming touch to your tea or coffee breaks.

Also featured is renowned culinary columnist Yuri Yamamoto, who shares easy-to-make microwave snacks that can be prepared using the attached mugs, further enhancing the appeal of this festive issue.

In addition, there are nutrient-rich recipes like Watanabe Maki’s Warming Salad, and a selection of breathtaking holiday dishes not only for Christmas and New Year but also for enhancing winter events.
