[How to distinguish between "snap peas" and "green

[How to distinguish between "snap peas" and "green peas"]
[「スナップえんどう」と「グリーンピース」の見分け方]

Harvested some peas not being so sure which (my garden marker flew away somewhere!) and found out that the green peas had a straight pod while the snaps had cresent.

A simple boil in salt water with a slice of lemon (gives you crispier texture and greener color) tasted just incredible✨

畑で収穫したお豆。ガーデンマーカーがどこかに飛んで行ってしまったため、スナップなのかグリンピースなのか良くわからなかったけど前者はサヤが三日月、後者はまっすぐだと言う事が判明。

レモン一切れを入れたお湯でシンプルに塩茹で（レモンを入れると緑色がより鮮やかになるだけでなく、食感がポリポリになる）。
サイコーに甘くて美味しかった✨

It's SETSUBUN today and so prepared some EHO MAKI

It's SETSUBUN today and so prepared some EHO MAKI (good luck direction rolled sushi) for my family. It's actually not a sushi though since my daughter requested for Kimpa instead.
For those of you who came to my January class, hope you're able to celebrate the event at home tonight!
And if you do, refer to my textbook for the bean throwing and EHO MAKI eating etiquettes!
Enjoy❣️

今日は節分なので恵方巻きを作りました。でも今年は娘のリクエストでキンパです。
１月レッスンにいらして下さった方々。今夜、節分を楽しんで! その際、豆撒きと恵方巻きの食べ方のお作法はテキストを参考に。Enjoy❣️

Just as you have events and holidays unique to your home country, we have many special events throughout the year, which are strongly associated with special food or dishes that are prepared for that particular day.

This is a monthly thematic course which focus on cooking special dishes for each month’s Japanese event. Not only you will learn to cook the dishes, you will learn about our customs, the history of our different events which are sure to make your life in Japan a more memorable, fun experience for you (and your family and friends)!

You will be just amazed by how our ancestors defined every little detail with such special meaning behind it.

What's even more unique about our lessons, is that you will be provided with a link to purchase all the food ingredients and tools that are necessary to cook the recipes from the lessons, so that you can cook them in your kitchen and experience the event, just like we do!!

YES! you can start from any time of the year and
YES! you can also select only the months that interests you.
BUT! you’d probably end up taking them all, because there is always so much you can learn!

By the time you finish all 12, not only you will be an total expert on Japanese culture, learning about our different food ingredients will definitely make your trips to local supermarkets a much happier routine for you! So come and join the fun!

Last lesson for the month🎵
