Temperatures above normal5℃ high34Forecast with ℃.

What is the lowest temperature this morning?28Since it was ℃,

It was definitely a tropical night.

I put up with the air conditioner and slept with a fan,

I woke up several times during the night.

Well, I like summer, so it will be coming soon

Real strong hot winds and heat waves

I'm excited to see what it will be like.

 

It's not a physical build to withstand it,

For some reason, I am following a complete grain vegetarian diet.

When you cut down on food, the world around you, centered on food,

It does look different.

 

Intermediate cooking class held on such a midsummer day,

this time2It was Dr. Kaneko Kaneko for the second time.

"It's hot. It's easy to get sick, so

Meisho (a drink made by kneading umeboshi and soy sauce with bancha tea)

or gulping down water,

It's better for your body to drink small amounts frequently."

I was taught how to deal with the heat.

 

Today's menu is

bud hijiki rice,

oatmeal burger plum sauce,

summer vegetable warm salad

zunda dressing,

of tomato compote5It is a product.

 

I worked on the tomato compote first, which had to be chilled.

Put the tomatoes in boiling water and peel off the skin.

Put the tomatoes in a pot, add salt, rice syrup, and honey and boil.

and let it cool in the pot.

It actually tastes even better if you put it in the fridge overnight.

Me hijiki rice is made with ingredients such as me hijiki, shiitake mushrooms, and pine nuts.

It was rice cooked with sake and soy sauce seasoning.

"When your appetite drops in the summer,

If you use the leftover cooked rice to make grilled rice balls,

It's delicious," Kaneko said.

 

What is Oatmeal Burg oatmeal?

It is made from processed oats, also known as oats.

It is used as a cereal food to eat for breakfast.

Put this in hot water, heat it up a little, and steam it.

Chop the onions, carrots and seitan (wheat protein)

stir fry,

Put it in oatmeal, mold it and bake it.

Add bread crumbs if soft.

 

Summer vegetable hot salad is a variety of summer vegetables boiled,

If you say so, there is no taste or curtness.

I have never eaten

It's kind of like the Italian ratatouille.

Garlic, celery, eggplant, cucumber,

Stir-fry the pumpkin, onions, and carrots in that order,

Boiled with peppers and tomatoes.

Colorful and very beautiful.

Zunda-ae is a dish that uses green soybeans.

Peel off the skin of the boiled edamame

(I put this in an oatmeal burger),

put in a food processor,

Add soy sauce, sake, and ginger juice to adjust the taste.

Tossed with cucumber and carrot.

In my mother's hometown Yamagata Prefecture,

As one of the variations of rice cake dishes,

This bright green zunda mochi (I heard it as jindan mochi)

I loved it when I was a kid.

Incidentally, natto mochi is also delicious.

 

Well, it's time for a fun lunch.

It's a summer dish, so overall it's more colorful than usual.

We plan to open a restaurant in the future

An uncle who always learns at the same table

"If you serve this dish at a restaurant,3000You can get the yen."

 

The first thing I put in my mouth was the zunda dressing.

The gentle aroma and taste of edamame,

Blended with the faint stimulation of ginger,

"It's a refined taste," he said aloud.

Since I experienced the trouble of peeling the thin skin,

I carefully brought it to my mouth little by little.

 

Summer vegetable warm salad to eat for the first time,

It certainly tasted different from simmered food, and it was light.

 

Celery does a good job.

Like hamburgers around the world,

Oatmeal burgers that can be cooked without worrying about food poisoning

It was served with a well seasoned plum sauce.

I wanted to eat a bigger one because it was light.

 

Me hijiki rice was delicious,

In the morning, I was hungry and ate a black soybean brown rice rice ball.

I couldn't finish eating it, so I wrapped it in plastic wrap and took it home.

 

The tomato compote I ate for the first time in my life,

The slightly sweet and salty taste matches the personality of the tomato,

I was impressed.

I didn't know there was such a dish.

Thank you for the meal.

 

Mr. Kaneko gave a lecture about cereals,

Principal Okada was "condition of health".

The uncle of each other is working on natural farming,

I've been to the fasting dojo.

Recently, I applied for the owner system of the sesame field,

You are walking in an increasingly deep world.

By encountering macrobiotics,

I think I'm one of those people who made a shift change in my life.
