• Morning!

    From Carol Shenkenberger@VERT/SHENKS to All on Thursday, February 21, 2008 07:45:00
    I work wierd shifts so got up at 3am, dont go to work til 5pm.

    I made Charotte some miso soup for breakfast. She's says it's got a slight tang (I bet I put in too much sesame oil) but is still pretty good.

    3 cups dashi
    1 TB miso (yellow)
    5-6 kelp bow ties
    1 slice fried tofu (about 1/2 inch by 2 inch, sliced)

    Fry the tofu in a little soy, water, and a few drops sesame oil just as long
    as needed to heat the dashi, miso, and kelp to boil. Turn off heat on dashi and miso, slice fried tofu to bottom of bowl and add broth with it's bow tied kelp.

    Takes about 3-4 mins from start to finish. Hot breakfast when it's 24F outside.

    Gotta go now. She wants to play on the computer!

    That doesn't sound very good. :) I could be wrong.

    I'm different. I go to bed at 3:00AM and try not to go to work at all!

    If it's got hard dumplings in it, I'd probably like it.

    (Who is Charotte?)

    Fry the tofu in a little soy, water, and a few drops sesame oil...

    I gotta try and get you some recipes for real food!

    Grin, you probably arent used to Dashi (a fish based broth). You can make it with chicken broth too.

    Well, not an option for me but then I'm happy overall with things.

    Snicker, you could add a few won-tons to it I suppose.

    My daughter, 14 going on 40...

    Fry the tofu in a little soy, water, and a few drops sesame oil...

    Grin, that *is* real food! Specifically, a traditional japanese breakfast (rice at the bottom of the bowl often added).

    Well, fish juice and seaweed doesn't sound very appitizing to me. :)

    Ah, where is your sense of adventure? Try something new for a change and use chicken stock for the dashi if in doubt ;-)

    How about using Noodles instead of the seaweed too? I can just open up a can of chicken noodle soup, but not for breakfast. :)

    Awww! But then it's boring to have just chicken broth with noodles!
    Adventure needed!

    Either way, thats merely one of many 'differences' you can find on what is 'breakfast food' around the world. Sure, some of us think 'cold pizza rocks' for breakfast but did you know the ancient romans agreed with that idea and
    it was a standard breakfast food well before Julias Ceasar? They didnt have tomatoes then (came from the USA) but they had something close enough to our pizza in other respects.
