01/14/2003: "dinner"

Eats-

Just got in a short while ago. Cooking some dinner - nabeyaki udon I guess, really every time I make udon it comes out never the same. Just throw in whatever I have around.

Boil a pot of water, add some dashi, some japanese soy sauce, a couple packets of that soup seasoning in the brightly colored plastic wrapper. Then add sme shitake 'shrooms, some yard long beans (they must have a real name) and let it cook. Season to taste and let it cook for 5 to 8 minutes. Then add some naruto sliced at an angle and some ito-wakame seaweed and a couple scallions sliced up. Cook another 5 minutes, add the udon noodles and cook until they are done (depends on frozen or fresh noodles). Then ladle into a big bowl, and garnish with some scallion, bamboo shots if you like, and maybe a tiny splash of sesame oil for a change.

Steam up a big bowl of edamame and have some rice with furakake sprinkled on top, and feel free to dose the udon with shachimi if you like a little heat.

Oh yeah, almost forgot, for clear broth you leave it like that, if you don't mind cloudiness, you can add a little shiro miso to the stock, adds a nice flavor.

So what are we making tomorrow? I'm open to suggestions of course-

Only takes a half hour and it's good eating. Getting hungry smelling it actually.

So let me stop talking and finish cooking.

why waste your time making all that crap when you can drive up the hill and get a bag of chips, a candy bar and a pack o' smokes?
