What I brought from Japan.

Went to Japan and meet people who I love, so didn't have much time for shopping.
I thought so... but, my luggage ended up full of stuff and I was worried about the extra charge at the airport..

In fact, no fashion products...

JAPAN TRIP - FOOD MARKET

This is the market where local people go shopping for everyday meal.
Kanazawa is situated on the Japan Sea, so that people can get best quality seafood and unique local vegetable with very cheap price!
I felt like that I'm in a paradise when I went to the market...

Japanese rock oyster

                          

Deep water shrimp for sashimi

Keep sashimi fish in cold ice water

Local vegetable

NODOGURO - I love this fish!

AYU- They only eat algae so when you eat them, you would find sweet aroma .

Can you find fresh EDAMAME ?

Very fresh sardine for sashimi. Eat with soy sauce and grated ginger.

JAPAN TRIP

Back to Sydney from extremely hot Japan!
While I was in Japan, I went on a short trip to Kanazawa where people call 'the small kyoto'.
My good friend and her little girl took me around Kanazawa town.

                                                                                                                          

Organic Vegetable

Finally, I've met organic Japanese vegetable in Sydney!
Thank my cooking class, one of my cooking class student is selling the organic vegetable which produced by Japanese couple in NSW.
My first order was Daikon, Carrot, Spinach and White turnip.

Look this freshness !

Lotus root

If you find Lotus roots at Asian groceries in this season, try to get one of them!
Choose nice white lotus root, not to buy dark brown one..


How to cook them?
Peel the skin off by peeler and slice them into half moon shape, then pop them into a heated frying pan.
I normally use extra virgin sesame oil or sesame oil for this.
When the lotus are pretty much cooked, add mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine for cooking) or sugar and soy sauce for taste or just use teriyaki sauce instead.


It takes only 10minutes for cooking and now you know the taste of beautiful lotus roots!
