Dishes:
-Coffee with soy milk (ran out of reg.)
-Raw okra in a splash of Kikkoman soy sauce (good, rich soy sauce for it)
-Fresh nectarines
-Ureshino-cha (green tea)
-Sliced tomato
-Goya champuru
-Salt-grilled peppers (apparently not shishito?) with homemade ponzu dipping sauce
All of the produce was from Santa Rosa' s Wednesday Market (a summer farmer's market and fair).
Champuru:
I tried cooking goya champuru today.
Fresh goya from the Santa Rosa Wednesday market; old ceramics I haven't used for years; a new attempt at a dish I haven't cooked since Japan.
Still so so bitter 😲, but good. New to this attempt--rubbing in salt and letting it sit, rinsing and letting sir sit in warm water for a minute or two, and cooking just with egg and garnishing with katsuo boshi.
