Kura-cooking in October

October is the Halloween month.

 
There were a lot of Halloween ornaments in Kura.
Some were cute, some were weird
Every ornament goes well with Kura’s atmosphere.
I believe all students loved those.


Welcome drink was hot lemon with honey.
We got a lot of vitamin C from drinking it and we were warm.

In one of the Japanese cooking lesson, a Filipino and a Japanese student took part in the lesson together.
They had a same hobby: climbing mountain.
Same birthday, same age.
They looked really happy to talking a lot as they make dishes.

Food of the Japanese class were sweet potatoes, pumpkin, chestnuts, beans, and so on.
Every food was seasonal.
Students learned how to peel chestnuts. It was easy to peel after cooking for 1minuite with a pressure pan.
We made really delicious chestnuts’ rice.


October was the best season for Pike conger.
It’s a high quality fish with plenty of fat.
The taste was really good.
Beans were special with eye shaped. It called “Kurakakemame”


They were good for Halloween.
But taste was really delicate, we felt seaweed scent.

 

Menu: Pike conger broiled soy sauce, Pumpkin and mushroom salad, Kurakake beans salad
Chestnut rice with oats, Taro soup, Sweet potatoes stick

They enjoy wearing Halloween costume in the class on Halloween day.

In Afternoon tea class, we made something weird.

The tea of this month: Rooibos tea of sweet potato, pumpkin, and chestnut
Chai
Chai is the best tea for this season. It made our body warm.

Menu:Cardamom pumpkin scones, Pumpkin dumpling,
Witch’s finger bread
Pumpkin color was really beautiful and smelled sweet.

I had a very good Halloween cooking lesson with a lot of students.
I think my students also had a good Halloween dinner with their families.
Please send some photos of it to Kura.
