 Don't'cha
hate it when you're in the mood to make something, then
find out you don't have enough ingredients to
make it properly? I wanted oden,
but I didn't have any fish balls or naruto, or a few
other things on the ingredients list. Fortunately, when
you're making a stew you can fudge a bit on the ingredients
as long as you keep to the spirit of the thing. So,
substituted kamaboko for fish balls & naruto, added
konbu ('cause finally I have that) and tweaked it a
few other ways, and dang if this doesn't taste just
like previous batches of oden. Better, because I'm no
longer using light soy sauce, which is uber-salty.
On the side I have steamed
broccoli and part of a storebought melon pan. The
box isn't the loveliest one, but it can't be beat when
it comes to keeping items from sloshing around. I didn't
want to face fish-flavored melon pan.
Wanna talk
about it?
