Macrobiotic Sweetpotato Icecream Cookie Sandwich

Adapted from Yamazki Yuki's cook book. She's really geneous indeed. Everything her recipe is very yummy and never fail.

I was not able to prepare for all ingredients the cookbook shows, the cookies became original recipe.

Using Soy milk, rice syrup and maple syrup instead of sugar and daily products, make it such a rich and gorgeous ice cream. Incredible.....

I always find new exciting thing every time I make macrobiotic recipe.

Inaniwa Udon Lunch

Inaniwa udon and deep fried vegetables with glated radish and Ponzu.

Deep fried shrimp head snack for beer lovers.

Taro was excited only being with grandparents.

I like "Inaniwa Udon" especially scraps one since that is shorter size than usual. Proper ones are too long for me.....

Taro's rate:★★★

He ate noodles only.

Miso Ragu Sauce UDON

Stir-fried Minced pork, chopped garlic and ginger,diced eggplants and green pepper. Season with Sweet bean paste, oyster sauce and doubanjang.

Taro's rate:★★★★★！！！

Simmered Fuki(butterbur stem)

This is called "Fuki" which is very common spring herb in Japan. Simmered with Dashi broth.

A little bit bitter, but Taro liked it.

Garlic chives and Mizuna Naml

Season with sesame oil, glated garlic and S&P

Minutes Pickles with Chinese pepper

Cut various kinds of vegetables into bite size, salted and soften them by squeesing(we call it Shio Momi. Salted and squeese)

Marinated sugar, rice vineger and Chinese pepper. It is very helpful only if you make "Shio-momi" vegetables and keep it in a fridge. It is kind of preservative food.

Minced pork and cabbage cutlets

Itadakimasu!

Taro's rate:★★★

（He didn't eat Naml at all.)

Lunch Box on May 23

This is my traditional Japanese lunch box

You might think we always have super-high calories western food, but we always adjust our stomach condition having Japanese low-calories food lunch box.

Brown rice has lots of vitamin and fiber. Jun doesn't like brown rice so much, but having brown rice once a day is really good for health. Whatever he says, I always put it into his lunch box;P

Seafood Lasagna Night

Learnt it at Kotkotopasta. White sauce and shrimp and flatfish in it. Very creamy and light taste compared to lagu sauce lasagna.
