One
thing about pseuki yaki - unless you use a spoon, as
opposed to chopsticking the solid stuff out of
the broth, you end up with a lot of broth. Rich beef
broth, flavored by seasonings and spinach and bamboo
shoots and all sorts of other good stuff. True to form,
I had to find other ways to use this, so last night
I made beefy
rice! That's rice made with beef broth instead
of plain water. The flavor is excellent, no soy needed,
and it makes perfect
yaki onigiri.
Joining the onigiri are a boiled egg and
a garlic butter octopus
cavorting in steamed
broccoli, and on the other side is a bit (well,
two bits) of almond cake and a fruit
salad with banana, kiwi fruit,
blood orange segments, and persimmon.
Today's pollen count: 5,937. That's the second highest
count in Atlanta ever, I believe, and falls less
than 100 short of the all-time record. I wonder if any
recipes involve oak and pine pollen? Might as well put
some of that crap to good use. I can just set my air
cleaner outside for an hour, then shake the filter
into a bowl and sift the stuff. Pollen bread, anyone?
Wanna talk
about it?
