I am coming to terms with the heat of the season.
it is just so tempting though to keep reaching for the ice box compartment.
since it is rainy season, the occassional breeze still keeps us cool. but when the cicadas start creaking, we know the rain rain is over, and the humid type of heat will start setting in.
I am trying hard to keep us genki with as much cool yet stamina giving foods
Neba neba (sticky) soba
with all the sticky foods to boost our stamina on a hot day
okra, black natto, grated mountain yam, and mekabu sticky seaweed
topped with yuzu shavings
i reckon we'll have plenty of neba neba foods this summer.
Dinner was home made pizza and salad
mushroom salad
squid ink pizza
scallops and potatoes genovese pizza
We still have a batch of genovese paste in the freezer that i made from last year's batch of beaming basil leaves and yummy hazelnuts that i got from phoon huat. i need to finish this before i make a new batch this summer.
The squid ink sauce was actually a pasta sauce we bought from the mart, and it was really tasty! i can't wait to try this sauce with pasta the next time round.
