Tamagoyaki

Japanese Omelette. Known to be on the sweeter side.  I followed the recipe, but next time I will keep it more savory. Usually a rectangular pan is used, but I didn't want to go out of my way to get it.

Must keep oiling the pan after finishing each roll. (linked recipe shows good pictures on oiling)
Pour more batter, make sure to lift the rolled egg to get it under bc that will help prevent the egg from browning and getting burned.
Repeat, repeat, repeat.

Finally figured out the wide chopstick technique on my last flip.


Mirin and Light Soy Sauce. So when you buy Mirin (Japanese cooking rice wine).... if are a stickler, you really need to look at the ingredients. Many have high fructose corn syrup. If you can't find it, I've found this substitute:

Add between 1 and 2 tablespoons of sugar to 1/2 cup of white wine, vermouth, or dry sherry to replace 1/2 cup of mirin

Vegetarian Meals

Before my trip, I had a fun pot luck with my girls I made Jackfruit BBQ pulled "pork" Homemade Coleslaw dressing After returning... went straight to my sister's for Thanksgiving... Turkey, ham, pumpkin pie, etc etc. First cooked meal at home: vegetarian jap chae with Zoodles and Carrot Noodles with my new spiralizer. Augh, I don't know why my pictures don't show up on some posts... but I am too lazy to fix it AGAIN. :\

Roasted Cauliflower

An all time favorite.  My father in law is a quiet man, but we know when he enjoys something.  One day, I just chopped up a cauliflower, tossed it in olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper... then threw it in the oven at 450F for 30-40 min until nice and browned to your liking.  The next day, he brought home 2 cauliflower heads.

NOOOCH!

Yeah... NOOCH. I love nooch. 😁😂 Nutritional Yeast powder is really good and offers so much nutrition.. as it's name itself states. So recently I have made nutritional yeast cheese. It's much easier than making cashew cheese.... and simple ingredients is always a go for me. I really enjoy the nutty flavor that this has too and the recipe I use now is super creamy and flavorful. Bob Mill's Cheese Sauce recipe  ... it is pretty basic, easy to customize. my favorite is adding garlic powder and paprika. At the time I made this for the first time, I still had spaghetti squash and trying to find a dish my husband would like. Spaghetti squash broccoli cheese casserole is really good!!... but I've given up on that vegetable with him. Mac-n-Cheese the NUMBER ONE FAVORITE LOADED NACHOS + Vegan Chorizo from TJs, stopped adding olives though. Never been a big fan anway Well, this isn't the most healthy dishes, it's def carb heavy. Still good anywa...
