inari & peyton party!

December 10th, 2007

Yet another SNF/theme-food party with my twin Shige, this time starring……inari-zushi!  To think I used to be one of those obnoxious kids who just ate the sweet wrappers and left the rice on my plate…tsk tsk.

(Note: I know I’m watching too much football because I had a dream where I was dating Peyton Manning - a cooler, stoic, better-looking version.  Sadly, I found myself in an unusually good mood when I woke up this morning…)

inari paachi!

UNAGI INARI. 

Ingredients: (2 servings)

10 inari wrappers
1 cup white rice
2 tbs cooking sake
2 tbs rice vinegar
2 tbs sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 package cooked unagi, chopped

For extra vegetables:
2 tbs soy sauce
2 tbs mirin
2 tbs cooking sake

Simmer chopped vegetables of your choice in soy sauce, mirin, and cooking sake until tender.  Meanwhile, cook 1 cup rice; once rice is cooked, add cooking sake, vinegar, sugar, salt, and simmered veggies.  Add unagi and stir.  Stuff pre-cooked inari wrappers (deep-fried tofu ‘pouches’, cooked in a sweet sauce) with rice.  Serve warm or cold.

    If you have to date anyone in your dreams, can’t it be Brady instead of Peyton!?!?!?

    Deibs, I would take PeyPey over Brady! But of course I am totally infatuated with Tomo (sigh)…

    Not sure how to feel about this one…

    Rosey, you have created a monster… a monster that doesn’t even fawn over the right guys.

    Brady is so hunky and Peyton is so… so… commercial. Tomo needs a few years to move beyond skanks like BritBrit and J. Simpson (even Brady had his Tara Reid year) to reach that upper echelon.

    And with that, the last shred of my masculinity has been lost.

    yeah, gregg, sorry, that sucks. i mean, dreaming of orton would be one thing, but manning? you now have to question your wife’s taste and thus your life.

    Everything is upside down right now. I don’t know what to believe.

    Dave - I just deleted my original comment…but I love PeyPey! It was the “Can you sign my melon?” that really got to my heart. Brady on the other hand…nothing! “Hello, I’m Brady Robot. I’m perfect. Humor? What is humor? HAR HAR.” (I’ll do the robot voice for you when I see you…next week!)

    Pat - Orton is grossness. Eww.
