oden weekend

I made oden on fri night and it lasted us 3 dinners...

J says he can eat oden for 1 week!
Here is fridays oden...
And when the soup was thicker the next day, it looked mirkier, but it was even tastier.
Basically Oden (おでん) is a winter dish consisting of several ingredients such as boiled eggs, daikon radish, konnyaku, and processed fish cakes stewed in a light, soy-flavoured dashi broth. Ingredients vary according to region and between each household. We usually add sausages and baby octopus in too. this time, i added taro too. Add anything into the pot, and it becomes really really tasty when eaten a day or two later.


Anyway, this was fridays J obento
Eggs wrapped in simmered soybeancurd skin and suteed white cabbage with minced pork
Today was so so cold and rainy, we decided to hibernate at home
For lunch, i made a simple dish of baked spinach in bean omelette, topped with cream cheese bits and parmesan
and we had it with varoious breads we bought yesterday.


I hope it will be warmer tomorrow...
