What recipe do you use?


Heaven forbid we get that. Just add shite. I have a pear relish recipe, you add pears. That’s all the info I can give. I’ll post pictures of pears later

How did you go with this much effort but miss so hard on the sesame seeds?

Seeds are just garnish.

BTW, I tried to make an omurice omelette tonight. It bombed!!!

I used Oak Grove jambalaya mix (no meat), and added some stir fry veggies. It wasn’t bad.

The sauce was ketchup, A1, wash your sister, shiracha, and soy. The sauce wasn’t bad actually pretty damn good.

Now the omelette, was a hot mess, but I did get it into a football shape. It wasn’t bad actually just too over done to give me that dramatic sliced opening.


Over all together, the taste was a 6/10, rice was 6/10, sauce was 7/10, but the omelette was a 3/10.

It is something I will make again, even if it only comes out like this.

Japanese obsession with ketchup

Frick yeah, I need to go now. Ketchup on eggs is where it's at. Ask your wife if she thinks I'd have girls tossing themselves at me if I'm wearing my tee with the below in it. It'll be all I bring if so. TIA

lol. The Japanese don’t use ketchup as much as a condiment but rather as a recipe ingredient. One of many. After we married I had to double my pantry and cabinet space due to the double ingredients (Japanese then everything else) and the specific plate ware that goes with each dish.

It’s only been a week and I went ahead and bought a better pan. This one is cast iron, made in Japan (not China)

Let me know how that works.
I go to Japan often and my wife always has me lugging stuff she’s purchased over there back. Thankfully no cast iron…yet.

And you're compensating by bringing knives and booze back too, right?

Haha. Since I don't check bags, knives wouldn't fly (literally) but since I'm usually in uniform I have brought back my share of liquids including booze. (crewmembers are mostly exempt from liquid restrictions). The only liquor I haven't had much success finding is Blanton's but I also haven't tried very hard. The Japanese are fond of bourbon and in fact helped keep the industry alive in the down times when Bartles and James was kicking their arse in market. Hard to believe, right? But because of that many distilleries have a feeling of loyalty to the Japanese and they get special allocations that aren't available or hard to find in the US. There's enough other stuff besides Blanton's to keep me happy, besides I can bring back a couple of bottles of Blanton's whenever I go to Johannesburg.
