～Lunch Report By ALT～

Happy throwing beans day!  Today we have a nice salad, some pork and radish soup, fish and lucky beans.  The salad is a classic and I love the soft crunch with the smokey flavor of the katsuoboshi.  The pork and daikon soup was very flavorful and had a light sweetness and umami from the pork, carrots, and daikon.  It reminded me a little of sukiyaki or nikujaga. I might sound crazy, but I feel like I tasted a warm spice in the soup as well like cinnamon or something.  Today’s fish iwashi, which is known as pilchard or sardine in English, was pretty good.  It was cooked in a nice sweet miso sauce which made it go well with rice.  The fish itself had a small layer of fat on the outside of it which gave a little variety to its texture. Not bad at all.  The lucky beans packet was also a nice little snack after finishing the meal.  Very crunchy and a nice mix of sweetness and saltiness since there were beans, some small candied fish, and other goodies in there.  A nice lunch to celebrate the special occasion of setsubun today.
