Chores & bento-prep

January 28, 2009

Today was productive, though not as much as I’d like.  How is it that I still tend to underestimate How Long Stuff Takes?  At any rate, I did get lots done.  Besides getting the kitchen cleaned up, I made the following:

  • mushroom soup
  • beets (for marinated beet salad)
  • beef soboro
  • carrots simmered in seasoned dashi
  • sweet potatoes simmered in seasoned  dashi
  • sunomono pickles

All tasty and now in the fridge.

How pretty is this beet?
