Because of our break for IB/AP testing, I decided to take advantage of having some extra time to explore my vegetarian cookbook that I got for Hanukkah last year. I've had a thing for Asian food since my trip to Japan over the summer, and decided to try to match how tasty the tofu tasted in it's home continent. I ended up making a rice vinegar, tamari and butter glazed fried tofu garnished with spring onions and toasted garlic, which even my brother thought was tasty. Of course, I had to add a bowl of Indian lentils, as it is one of my favorite healthy proteins to eat since I don't eat regular meat. I also used our new rice maker to cook rice with sea salt, one of Asia's staple foods (total of 2 hours). I had a lot of fun experimenting with food that was healthy, very tasty, and not too hard to make. My goal is to learn 2 new recipes each month for the rest of the year.
