"Blessed rain" is something you want to fall when it falls.Well, this time, she will send you a picture of the Cooking School regular course that was held from Friday to Sunday last week, focusing on the comments of the teachers and the impressions of the students. Friday the 7th is the 5th class of the advanced Friday class.The person in charge is Ms. Chizuko Tsuruhisa, who came all the way from Kurume.Mr. Tsuruhisa has been active as a caretaker of a local classroom in Fukuoka (*currently no local classroom), while holding a network class on the side of the natural food store "Sanchokuya Kurashiki". 607 Mr. Reikyu.JPG In the 5th installment, we made somen agar-yose, which is great for early summer, and a gorgeous change of sushi, “Fujinohana”.Sesame tofu, which is indispensable for Shojin cuisine, is also a challenge to make by hand this time.After the class, I received a comment from Mr. Tsuruhisa. “Please read the text carefully.It's going to be a bit busy class while making dumplings, so please aim to improve your planning skills.On the next day, the 6th, the 21th and 6th Saturday W class for beginners was held.This is the final class, and the morning teacher is Mr. Nagahara from Osaka Prefecture. 608 First W Tonagahara.jpg The 9th time is the pumpkin croquette and pumpkin gnocchi, and the pumpkin is very active.It's still a bit early for pumpkin season, but please try making it at home when pumpkins are in full bloom.Michiyo Fujii from Hyogo will be in charge of the 10th session in the afternoon. 608 First W Dofujii.jpg Even in the final episode, pumpkin appears again as the bean paste for the three-color ohagi.And I made "Chikuzenni" which is the culmination of "steamed".On this day, one more item was added in addition to the text menu. 608hooba.JPG Ms. Kuroda, a member of the NPO Food Health Ishizuka Sagenjuku in Fukui, sent me magnolia leaves, so the principal and Mr. Fujii made the local dish, magnolia rice. 608 magnolia leaf rice.jpg 608 rice.jpg Place the rice on top of the magnolia leaves and sprinkle with soybean flour. 608.jpg Wrap it up and voila!In fact, if you put freshly cooked rice on top of it and let it steam, the aroma of magnolia leaves will be transferred to the rice, and you will enjoy it.During the lunchtime tasting session, I asked everyone in the class to give their impressions of the final session.

“The allergies and hay fever that I had been suffering from have improved little by little. My body temperature has risen, so I think I have developed resistance.I will continue to eat brown rice and regular meals.”

“Until now, I used to eat as much food as I wanted, but after coming to class, I started choosing foods that are good for my body and stopped buying unnecessary things at the supermarket. I made it together and enjoyed eating it every day.”

“My husband, who likes junk food, said it was delicious. Also, the miso soup I had for breakfast one day was really delicious. I bought it and tried it. I was happy that it turned out well and my kids said it was delicious.”

“My son started living on his own, but he still can't cook, so I thought I'd start with salt (with minerals left over), so I gave him some. ”
