Day 10 at the Kushi Institute

Today is Sunday and this weekend is very quite.  I like it slow for a few days.  You get to catch up on your reading, do your laundry, and hang out with the students that remained.  Today for brunch we had corn meal and blueberry pancakes with maple syrup or brown rice syrup diluted.  The pancakes were a nice treat.  The other thing the chef made that I loved was broccoli flowerettes with grated mochi and then it has a chickpea, tahini, and lemon sauce.  That was my favorite and I can't wait to cook it for my children and for family.  The mochi kinda melts so my kids will think it is cheese but it is not.  Mochi is a pounded sweet rice that has been dried into hard block.  You can then grate it with a very fine grater so it lookes like parmesan.  I am on my way to cook dinner and another adventure in the kitchen.
