About This Week’s Recipes

This week’s menu is all about cozy, comforting flavors. We’ll start with Mushroom Takikomi Gohan, a fragrant one-pot rice dish, and a light yet satisfying Simmered Cabbage with Aburaage & Egg.

Midweek brings heartiness with Eggplant Lentil Curry and a creamy Japanese twist in Miso Pasta. To round things out, we finish with simple and delicious Fried Eggplant, golden on the outside and tender inside.
