Pastele, rice (about two and a half bites), sweet potato.
Simmered Turnip
With ginger, one dried date. The turnip absorbed the spiciness of the ginger. Salt added before serving. The water from cooking the turnip made for soup base for The Cat’s noodles, turnip-y and ginger-y. Hee hee.
The Cat’s Bento
The rest of the rice, pastele bite, leftover yuba rolls, fried pork crumb, sweet potato, turnip. 🙂
Working through chef’s vegetable balsket. First turnip and tops, the tops were a little wilted, nothing wrong, seems turnip tops naturally wilt fast.
The Mouse soaked them in water for a while (it’s good to work at home 🙂 )
Rehydrating
The Mouse peeled and simmered the turnips for The Cat’s bento.
The Cat’s Bento
Base of rice and sweet potato, takan and pork belly, turnips. The Mouse kept the turnips whole for aesthetic purposes. The Cat they looked like mice butts. Hee hee.
For the turnip tops, The Mouse added them to The Cat’s ramen bowl of lamb rib bones and wakame.
The Cat’s Noodle Bowl
The Cat slurped.
If The Mouse could turn back time, maybe open up a small ramen shop. Hee hee.
