My husband has most Tuesdays off, so that is his official cooking day (I love it!) This week he prepared the Japanese donburi (one bowl) dish called Gyudon. It consists of super thin slices of beef and onion wedges simmered in a sweet and salty broth of soy sauce, sake, mirin, sugar and dashi (kelp and smoked fish broth) on top of steamed rice. So delicious when the broth soaks down into the rice! Pickled ginger and mitsuba are used to garnish the top.
The bowl is pretty cute too! My husband bought it from his Japanese tableware shop. It is almost identical to the bowls used by a shop he knows in Japan. It was such a deliciously authentic day! I teased him that he should cook everyday, but he promptly said one day per week is enough. ^_^
