Dish 27. Nikuman- I had never made steamed meat buns before but I had this odd craving for one so I decided to make it and I'm going to say they were awesome. The bun came out fluffy, soft, and not too sweet, and the filling was
quite tasty also! I followed the bun recipe I found online but tweaked it slightly by mixing different types of flour and decreasing the sugar.
For the meat, I used thinly sliced beef pieces
and actually ended up using the napa cabbage and other veggies that I had from the leftover sukiyaki! The flavors were bold so they worked out perfectly and saved me time- win win! Both Jeremy and I loved these buns. There were 7 made, and only one remains in our fridge... maybe I'll become a bun specialist if they were this good the first time :)
Dish 28. Ginger-Potato & Beef- I used the same thinly sliced pieces of beef, but prepared it ahead of time with a little sake and potato starch to soften it up. I then flavored it with ginger, and added in the potatoes to cook and soften. Once that was done, add a little soy sauce flavor, some green onions and sesame seeds... voila! Simple and tasty! Jeremy and I swallowed this up too, even though my favorite of the night was still the buns! I heart carbs :)
