What's for Dinner, Mon., Dec. 30, 2024

[NJCher]

The sushi place was by my appointments for the day, so I bought Spicy Crab on Inari on the way home. For those not familiar with it, the menu described it: Seasoned Fried Bean Curd, Rice Seasoning, Spicy Crab, Sushi Rice, and Black Sesame Seeds.

I've had it several times before; always enjoyed it. This pic is from the restaurant:



Making my own Asian cucumbers tonight with mirin and chives from the garden.

Hot ginger tea.

Kombucha will be blackberry-pear.

Dessert: might have a little slice of lemon ginger cheesecake but probably not. Already tired of desserts and the holiday isn't even over.

7. The inari looks interesting

I've only seen plain rice and tofu skin inari here -and we have a sizable population of Japanese descent!
