From bottom center: The aforementioned potatoes, also known as sweet sweet potatoes, reminiscent of Bao Si Taro but with a darker, deeper taste: 1.5 large ones roasted 30 minutes at 400, then pan fried in caramelized mixture of sugar (3tb), mirin (2tsp) and dark soy sauce (1tsp) and topped with sesame seeds.
BL: Tofu Toast, a sort of Nippon-style Welsh Rarebit, with the consistency of soft scrambled eggs: 1/4 block of strained tofu smashed up with 2tb mayo, 1 tb soy and a squirt of hot sauce, spread onto crusty bread, topped with grated parmesan and nori strips and toasted.
TL & TR: Quick miso soup, reconstituted from remnants of matzo ball broth for bonus Rosh Hashanah flavor.
TC: Pan fried frozen gyoza topped with scallions
BR: Sweet corn (roasted 30 min at 400) rolled in sesame oil and sprinkled with togarashi.
