Congee For Breakfast

For breakfast today, I made congee with smoked pork, chopped collards, poached egg, and furikake.

Fortify That Breakfast!

We had takeout Japanese food last night. What to do with the leftover rice and miso soup? In Japan, they often have these for breakfast with some fish. No fish in the house, so I popped in a beaten egg and made the soup into an egg drop miso soup. I jazzed up the rice with furikake topping. Can't forget dairy and fruit, which explains the blueberries topped with Greek yogurt (and mountain honey). Coffee is a must.

Asian Tortillas

Experimental snack time!

I mixed an ounce of masa with a scant 1/3 cup of water and a couple of tablespoons of furikake. After pressing two golf ball sized balls of dough in my tortilla press, they were baked in a dry cast iron pan, about a minute on one side and 45 seconds on the 2nd side.

 I ate the two tortillas warm with a few drops of sriracha. I probably could have added a few more drops of water to the mix, but the flavor was great!
