Day 19 How to handle a claimant bento

Another complaint from the subject matter that yesterday's soy beans were tough to chew, (...but flavors were awesome.)  OK, soybeans should better be cooked in a pot for a while to soften their texture.

The soy beans with green apple were simmered with veggie soup stock.  Lettuce ($1 per head special) stir fried with sesame oil and black pepper.  A side of glazed ginger.

A slice of multi-grain bread from a leftover sandwich re-baked in the oven to bring out its "crunchiness."  Added a bit of onion oil and balsamic vinaigrette.  Coconut milk and sesame sauce will be heated and poured to this box prior to serving.  This should bring out its "softness." 

Thai Jasmine rice cooked with beans and seaweed, topped with miso marinated walnuts and red ginger.

"Infused sake" did a great job on bringing out flavors of soy beans and green apple.  So easy.  Something you won't get from a shelf of grocery store.

Ingredients:
1 cup sake or dry white wine.
A small piece of ginger root, sliced.
1 piece of chili pepper.
Thyme.

Pour all ingredients in a jar and let it rest for a few days in the fridge.
