I found a bag of sushi rice while cleaning the pantry and I made a Japanese dinner!
First we had miso soup:
It had rehydrated shiitake mushrooms, wakame and miso paste.
Then fried tofu pockets filled with rice:
And onigiri! Filled with umeboshi plums and a black-eyed peas paste.
And some boiled and salted edamame:
This all looks very fancy, at least to me, but it was only one evening... Actually what I've been eating all week is this:
It's a stir-fry with garlic, kale, millet, black-eyed peas and tahini sauce. It's to die for!

I love love Inari and edamame!
Edamame is good breakfast food or whenever you feel like snacking.
Your all week dinner looks like a feast!
Amaaaaazing feast!! I'm especially enticed by that stir-fry :-)
I want that stir-fry!!!
I love your eats, and I love trying new recipes from other cultures...I find them to be the best tasting.
My sister used to live in Barcelona, so I used to travel there often. It's a great place to visit. Your Japanese dinner looks really yummy!
I would die for the japanese dinner ;-)
Yummy looking eats! The bowl at the end looks terrific! I always mix up my foods and love eating out of bowls so everything will be combined, haha
Oh sweet! I love inari. It's pretty much the best thing ever.
OMD! Can I please go stay with your dad and his girlfriend? I would just love to eat like that all the freaking time!
Wow, did you make that japanese meal?! It looks so great!
Your japanese meal looks so fantastic! I am jealous. Did you make the inari all by yourself? I am going to have to try that next time I have a sushi night! you rock Alice. Hope all is well.
I love Barcelona, good to hear you had a great time.
All the Japanese food looks so good! I would love to try those fried tofu packets one day.
YUM!!! I love edamame done like that but it all looks awesome.
That dinner looks ridiculously good... you had me at miso soup but those tofu pockets... mmmmmm!
I love all the fancy foods! I could eat that yummy stir-fry al week too!
That dinner looks fantastic! Did you make all that?! Wow!
Yum! All of that looks amazing. And that kale stir-fry looks delicious too. I'm especially impressed by your onigiri.
the black eye peas, kale, and tahini sounds amazing!!!
What a feast! I wish I lived closer because I would be there for dinner any time you were making something like this. It looks like this would have taken forever to make! I am impressed!
your japanese dinner looks fancy to me too, Alice! wow! that's a lot of yummies! mmmmmmmm! and your garlic-kale-black-eyed peas-tahini bowl = glorious! it sounds like such a tasty combination - and one that i'll have to try! hooray!
Omigosh, Miss Alice, inari is one of my most favorite foods! I used to eat it alllll the time when I lived in China! But I'd forgotten about it, since it's not an everyday sight here in US grocery stores or restaurants. Thanks for reinding me about it; I'll have to track some down!
I love how Spain is your neighbor :P Regarding the brazil nut milk chai--the "milk" is made from soaked ground up brazil nuts, then they add in the chai spices and...voila!
Yum, I have to try the millet and kale. I'm the opposite of you, I love quinoa, but have yet to really love a dish with millet. I'll have to give this a go.
