Culinary day

Today turned out to be a guided culinary day. I must have tried up to 40 new different crackers, pickles, sweets and nuts, here are some of them.

Rice crackers in soya sauce, wrapped in seaweed.


Another type of manjuu, with pieces of sweet potato.


Nuts, 6 different sorts ended in my bag!


Those things on the left are tiny fish with little silver eyes. On the right are tiny shrimp. Both in sweetened soya sauce.


The strangest thing I tried: Grashoppers prepared in sweetened soya sauce. Apparently Japanese kids love catching them and then give to their mothers to prepare them.

Ali je "sweetened soya sauce" teriyaki ali je to še kaj drugega?

So ti bile kobilice všeč?

milton said...

Hm, kobilice da, svinjsko pa ne.

Ni teriyaki, rece se "tsukudani". Kobilice so bile fine (verjetno zaradi omake). Svinjskega pa ni bilo v tem.
