Lunch for Thursday, March 3, 2011

Today is Hinamatsuri (Girl’s Festival) in Japan.  It is a day to celebrate women and girls health and happiness, which is very good thing.  So for today I made a girl wearing her festive kimono.  I created her using my refrigerated egg white mixture to make three egg sheets in pink, white and green.  I think the pink one failed and I added too much red coloring to it.  I also made a mock hishi mochi using the leftover egg sheet.  I guess that would change it to a hishi tamago?  OK I'm not sure on the translation.  And I cooked some chicken thighs in garlic and soy sauce.  I thought it tasted delicious but the kid said it tasted funny.  Oh well, more for me.
