８月４日
厳しい暑さ続きの今日この頃、裏庭は丈高く伸びた茗荷で埋め尽くされている。
毎年、かなりの茗荷が採れるのだ、今年も、六、七十は採れそうだ。
今日は、天麩羅で頂いた。市販のものと違って野性味のある強さが
大層、美味である。
These days, the scorching heat continues, and the backyard is filled with sprawling myoga plants. Every year, we can harvest quite a lot of myoga, and it seems we'll be able to get sixty or seventy this year as well. Today, we enjoyed them as tempura. Unlike store-bought ones, it had a wild and robust flavor, making it exceptionally delicious.
