Vegetable day

1-5-2010 Wed. cold and windy, cloudy

BREAKFAST --- coffee
LUNCH --- steamed dumplings ( leftover from yesterday's dinner)
AFTERNOON-TEATIME --- Wulong green tea | clementine
DINNER --- spinach soup with shiitake mushroom simmered in dashi stock | roasted Japanese white sweet potato | five-spice cabbage | eggplant stew with mushroom, cilantro, caramelized onion in fermented-black-bean sauce | short grain rice | red wine

  • Japanese sweet potatoes are the best, one kind is white inside with purple skin, and the other kind is in completely reversed colors: purple inside with white skin!
