Wednesday in Japan or Tucson ?

I have been asked if I would post some of my quick Japanese pickles recipes.
And yes, they are very quick and tasty.
Last two weeks have been busy and haven't time to look back and find
some good photos of the pickles.
So next Wednesday's blog will be pickles. So good !

 On the way to a nice dinner at Sushi Zona. One of many lovely restaurants near my home.
You can see a storm building over the Santa Ritas Mountains.

 Tempura

 Tuna and salmon sashimi.
There was several other small plates but I forgot to take the photos because I was eating, opps !
....

 Son made Bengali Mustard Fish.
We loved this dish and will be put into our favorite Indian food rotation.
It was so fast and tasted fabulous. Especially if you love mustard, which I do.
He is such a great cook.

And Of Course !
Here is your mid-week pretty.

  1. Sun puddles always come in handy for a Scottie.

    Dramatic skies in that first shot.

  3. Oh the tempura looks good. I love sushi, but haven't had the nerve yet to try sashimi. Who would have thought you'd have all those rains in Tucson?

    1. I do not have tempura very much, then when I do it tastes so fabulous.
      I tried something that I haven't had before, Fatty Yellowtail sashimi. Much like Super White Tuna it was tender, smooth, just like butter in the mouth with just a hint of sea. That is what is so great about sashimi, you can taste and enjoy the slice of fish, without rice.

  10. Your photos remind me it is lunch time. Quite boring in contrast - a boiled egg :-)
