Last Sunday we invited some friends to the house. As my cooking is not something worth showing off, the choice of ethnic food, especially that of my own country Taiwan, is one of the safe choices.
Mullet roe (karasumi / 烏魚子) was one of the dishes that I prepared. It was served with cubes of leek, apple, and pear in a childish display. The bitter taste of roe was entirely enveloped in the sweet juice and smoothed away.
Those gems are so cute. Where did you find those colorful and lovely "sticks"?
ReplyDeleteSophie, those sticks are from 100-yen shop, (something like 50元商店 in Taiwan). A good bargain! 100-yen shop is probably the paradise for housewives in Japan! A must-go when you come to visit.
