Today's
lunch is sponsored by the colors purple, green, and
white. I have marinated, stir-fried tofu,
marinated in some leftover pseuki yaki broth. Then there's
imo-gohan, which is rice
cooked with Japanese sweet potato. It's not normally
purple, but for another recipe I boiled some purple
sweet potato, and it just seemed appropriate to use
that water to cook this rice, y'know? Anyway, sweet
potato rice is light and slightly sweet, and good cold-weather
food. Next I have steamed
broccoli, drizzled with lemon butter left over from
last night's crab leg feast. And, finally, a slice of
purple
sweet potato pie, which was the source of the purple
potato water.
Hmm. This is almost a vegetarian meal. If I didn't
make pseuki yaki with beef broth, it would be.
Wanna talk
about it?
