切り干し大根の煮つけ　とん汁

【Lunch Report by ALT】

A very Japanese lunch today.  The kiriboshi daikon was delicious and had a nice salty flavor with an earthy sweetness.   It went perfectly with the rice!  The tonjiru was quite tasty today and filled with big chunks of tofu and lots of delicious crunchy cabbage.  The broth had a nice deep flavor which had some smoky flavor like katsuoboshi or something.  It tasted very good today!  A wonderful match with rice.  Today’s saba with miso sauce was excellent and very meaty.  The sweet and slightly savory miso sauce and the light fishy flavor were a great combination and of course were great with rice!  Of course, today is a special ‘Rice Menu’ day! Complete success and a yummy meal.

ポークカレーライス　牛乳　ハムと大根のサラダ

Today is curry day!  The ham and daikon salad was excellent and the ham chunks were very big and there was even asparagus in the salad which was nice.  One of the best kyushoku salads thanks to being simple and super flavorful with nice ingredients.  The pork curry was very delicious and had a nice amount of spice too.  Lots of veggies, but I got mostly potatoes today. I like carrots in curry the most.  A simple meal of curry and salad with rice on the side, but one of the most hearty and satisfying meals you can get at school!  Delicious!

Today’s lunch is Mabodofu with a dumpling and salad, a classic kyushoku menu.  Today’s salad, namul, was a bit saltier than I was expecting since normally it has a more sweet sesame flavor.  The saltiness was nice and went well with the rice and it had a nice juicy crunch as well.  Today’s shrimp dumplings, the ebishumai, were good and had a lot of shrimp flavor.  The mabo was pretty good today, nice and hot.  I like that it is so meaty and the tofu is quite nice as well.  I am always surprised that there is no spoon on mabo dofu day.  My image of eating mabo dofu is that it is always eaten with a spoon.

Today’s menu is a hot dog, soup, and jelly!  The hot dog is the classic kyushoku style with a very big bun, cabbage, and some ketchup.  It is tasty and smoky from the sausage and the cabbage and ketchup add some moisture giving balance to the bread. The soup today is quite yummy and I love the juicy clear noodles.  The shrimp balls are also juicy and packed with flavor adding some heartiness to the dish.  Of all the jelly types we get in school lunch, today’s apple jelly is one of my favorites because of the many apple chunks.  It reminds me of eating an apple pie, although this jelly is usually cold and frozen, which is still very delicious.  A wonderful meal.

Today is a special menu celebrating school entrance and all the students going up a grade.  How exciting!  And it is a super yummy menu with lemon karaage and delicious sides including sekihan!  The gomoku kinpira was super juicy and delicious with lots of interesting flavors.  I like the gobo’s earthy flavors and the sweetness of the sauce it was cooked in as well as the juicy abura age too.  Today’s soup was filled with lots of tofu and seaweed.  It tasted great and was pretty filled although it was soup!  Today’s sekihan was so delicious.  I love ‘red rice’ very much and the gomashio is my favorite as well.  It’s such a treat.  I know many students (and adults!) who don’t like it, but I think it is super delicious.  The karagae with lemon sauce was stupendous.  The flavors of the sauce were lemon, but also a little bit more like it was mixed with soy sauce or something to really make it special.  Today when we were preparing lunch, Kyoto sensei carefully poured the remaining sauce on top of the chicken which was very nice and allowed us to enjoy the flavor much more I think.  The sweet and sour flavors of the chicken going back and forth with the more salty and smoky flavors from the roasted sesame seeds in the sekihan were a great combo.  The jelly dessert had a very interesting and unique flavor as well. ‘Sakura Jure’, which was a light flavor that tasted like cherries and was fragrant like peach as well.  I truly wonderful meal worthy of the celebration of the new school year for everyone.  And the best menu to date of course!  Gochisousama deshita!
