coriander
イギリスから帰国して間もない頃、スーパーで見たコリアンダーの値段がロンドンの3倍くらいするのに驚いて、住む部屋も決まっていないのにコリアンダーの種(150円)を購入しました。それから約3年、手に入れただけでホッとして放ったらかしにしていた種を今日やっと蒔く事ができました(これも昨日読んだ本のおかげ)。種の袋に書いてある通り「板切れなどで軽くこすって殻を割って数時間水につける」を実行してみましたが、正しく出来たのかは不安。ロンドンでよく作ったグリーンカレーにはスーパーで売っているコリアンダー3つ分は必要なので頑張って育てなくちゃ。
It was just after I came back to Japan to live, it was even before we found a flat, I saw bunches of fresh coriander in a supermarket and it was almost three times more expensive than London! I was very shocked and I head to a gardening shop to buy coriander seeds (¥150=74p). It has been nearly three years since then, and I thought that today is the day. I finally seed them! (I guess it's because of the recipe book from yesterday) On the packet of coriander seeds says 'rub the seeds gently against a wooden board, soak in water for a few hours'. I don't know if I did it right... The green curry I used to cook in London needs lots of fresh corianders, at least three packs of a coriander from a Japanese supermarket. I hope my coriander grows a lot!
