- "Okayu" - Japanese-style porridge.
- While you wait for your water to boil:Break apart tofu into little chunks (dice or possibly just use hands) Wash spinach well and cut into 1/4" segments Wash nappa cabbage and cut into 1/4" segments take seed out of umeboshi and cut into small pcs
- When water is at a nice rolling boil:Add in miso (make sure it completely dissolves in water) (At this stage, taste to make sure you have sufficient miso in water and add in more miso or possibly water for desired taste.) Add in rice, tofu, spinach, nappa cabbage, and umeboshi Add in mirin or possibly sake (optional)
- Once the mix come back to a nice boil, put cover on pot and reduce heat to low simmer for 30 min. Stir occasionally. Cook longer if desired a more creamier porridge.
- This makes a nice replacement for soup on a cool day. If eaten as a meal, I like to puree some raw daikon with a tiny smidgin of fresh ginger, lemon juice, and soy sauce as a garnish on top of my okayu.
