Seasonal salad featuring strawberries, sashimi (raw) scallops,and Japanese herbs… with delicious wasabi & EVOO dressing✨
Eating local & fresh & seasonal! is always my motto✨
Quick idea…
- Grill rooted veggies: turnip & lotus roots
- Chop the rest: Strawberries, scallops, Japanese herbs (Mitsuba, Myoga), watercress, shred Yuzu (Japanese citrus)
- Dressing: very simply… mix EVOO & wasabi & soy sauce, S&P
Plate everything together, let mini motzarellas have fun.
Not an ad – but a story about my favorite EVOO – a gift from my friend the other day.
Her father runs several businesses, including olive oil distribution – and what I love about this bottle is that he keeps one of the EVOO brand label with the photo of his children in their younger days✨
I like how my friend seems both happy and a bit embarrassed when I stare at this picture and compare to her now.
Maybe she’s more grown up, but the same warm smile! I love it (and it tastes so wonderful)! All good wishes…✨
Other random pics sharing my daily life:
-Miso soup: I am enjoying with all sorts of ingredients like tomato, turnips,etc- but myoga (red spiky Japanese herb) on top makes such a difference!
-Tsukemono (Japanese pickles) from Tsukiji- how delicious…
-Fish: Seafood in Japan is just so fresh & delicious, raw and cooked.

＆こちらのオリーブオイルは私にとって思い出たっぷり＆特別で、またいつか改めてご説明させて頂けますと✨
なんなんでしょうか、日本の日差し？光？本当に、お写真もノリノリな気分です✨
突然の、その他のお写真
-6&7枚目：お味噌汁は自由！そして、吸い口次第ですっかり別次元に！（カブ＆みょうが＆柚子ですっきりな日、トマト＆なめこ＆カブ＆みょうがでとろみを楽しむ日）
-8&9枚目：築地のお漬物屋さん、どれもフレッシュで塩気も強すぎず大好きです
-10枚目：しょうもない品質のお写真で恐れ入ります。こんな文章までご覧いただいている貴徳でお優しい方に、せめて、私がお魚を求めるときのポイントをお伝えしたく。笑 国内のお魚の流通は、江戸以降、通常お魚が左側を向く状態です。”上身の方が血が溜りにくく、雑味少ない”という説を私は信じており、スーパーでも、上身を選んでいます。
