Summer Marinated Tomatoes
I came up with this when received a lot of delicious ripe tomatoes, and felt like eating a refreshing dish. These are also good with a little soy sauce. Other than corn, sliced onions, julienned cucumbers, or 'myoga' (Japanese ginger) are good too. These also delicious served over somen noodles. Recipe by Staff Takako
Ratatouille for Kids
My daughter doesn't like food that's too hot, so I came up with something for her with a great nutritional balance. If you make this, you can easily make a lot of food. Tomato purée makes this quick and easy, even more so than canned tomatoes. I used the vegetables we had around the house. The vegetables have enough moisture as it is, so lately I haven't been adding any extra water. After it's done simmering, adjust as needed. After putting it on rice, you can top with some powdered or shredded cheese and pop it in the oven to bake into an au gratin. Recipe by Staff Takako
