Udon recipe! ~Like a soup pasta~

image012.jpg

I eat udon weekend’s lunch time.

Udon is simple and easy to cook.

So I want to introduce some original Udon recipe.

Before cooking, I  put the noodles into an earthenware pot and add  Kimuchi.

I boil  the noodles and the Kimchi in the earthenware pot.

That dish is good for recent cold days! :-)

Another good idea is curry udon. You can see the recipe here: http://japanesefood.about.com/od/udon/r/curryudon.htm

Ochazuke ~Japanese food with Rice~

Do you like ‘Ochazuke’?

I like 3 tastes of ochazuke.

 Mentaiko, Umeboshi, Sake.

This picture is Umeboshi Chazuke. It tastes mild and sour. :-)  

It is a simple dish, but for people who don’t know one.

I recommend this link:

Egg roll has a variety of taste, so today I introduce egg roll that includes spinach.

Please look at my first topic (about egg roll).

What you should do is to add more oil and Mirin.

In this way, you can expand your repertoire of cooking.
