Nishime



This is a Japanese summer vegetable dish I really love.  Nishime contains only vegetables and tofu without any meat or fish.  It comes from Buddhism food.  It made only with vegetables so the stock is very important which is made with Konbu; kelp.  

I made it casually with vegetables and tofu that are available in Singapore.  It's really different from the original dis in Japan but it was good enough.

「煮しめ」本格的な煮しめではないが、昆布だしで野菜と豆腐を煮たもの。近所のスーパーで買えるもので作った。シンガポールには日本で言う木綿豆腐や厚揚げの様な豆腐がないので、固豆腐を使っている。

そう言えば、祖母は盆の時期に材料を全て個別に味を調節して煮て「煮しめ」を作っていた。本格的な物も一度作ってみようかと思う。
