Little House in the Paddy

An Englishman who once lived in the countryside in Japan researching the development of a nearby city, enjoying his choral activities and observing the behavior of local people. Sadly he died of heart attack on the 14th July, 2011.

Yesterday's lunch


Another break from the past. Rev. Mugo cooked a beautiful lunch both yesterday and today! The green salad tasted superb. A neighbour kindly gave us broad beans; Rev. Mugo boiled them, mixed them with broccoli and pasta then topped the salad with spring onions. There was a hint of Japanese-ness in there. For the dressing she used soy sauce, mirin (low-alcohol rice wine), rice vinegar, mustard, oil, salt and pepper. For dessert we had strawberries with custard and double cream sprinkled with walnuts. Mmm.. lovely.
