Ah, banana bread! So many variations, so much goodness! This particular loaf does not contain any extra goodies (i.e. chocolate chips, walnuts, etc). I was rather in a hurry, so I just threw together a basic banana bread. It is super delicious toasted with peanut butter for breakfast! I sliced and froze the leftovers so I can enjoy the dense goodness for days to come! Next time I may indulge in a few bits of chocolate...mmm!
Here is a bento lunch I made a few days ago. The rice has ume shiso furikake for seasoning, as well as sesame seeds. The purple stuff in the left corner is sauted purple cabbage. Purple cabbage does have a tendancy to turn blue when cooked, though this can easily be remedied by adding an acidic ingredient such as lemon juice or vinegar. The carrots are cooked in vinegar, sugar, soy sauce and sesame seeds. Everything is rounded out by a hard boiled egg, cucumber slices and pickled onion.
This is a Japanese stew called Hayashi Raisu (should be eaten alongside rice). I forgot to take a photo the day I cooked it, so you get to see leftovers stored in Tupperware. ^_^; This stew is really so delicious! It combines thin strips of beef with carrot, onion, mushroom, tomatos, red wine and demi glace sauce. The demi glace sauce is really what makes it special!
Comforting food as the rain comes down!
