ブログをさぼっている間に空気が冷たく乾いてきて、東京も冬っぽくなってきた。つまり、そろそろ焼き芋シーズン。今年になってから近所のスーパーでも見かける鹿児島県産の
安納いも。オレンジ色でしっとりと甘い身は、焼き芋にするのがピカイチだと思う。電子レンジの「弱」でゆっくり加熱して、蒸かし上がったら魚グリルで少々焼きを入れる。家庭で簡単、石焼き芋にも負けてない焼き芋のできあがり。「女性は芋が好き」という決まり文句を聞く度に、なんとなく腹がたつのだけれど、自分も芋好きだし仕方ないか。

While I haven't been updating LDK, the air in Tokyo got crisper and colder every day. I think this weekend is the beginning of winter here, which means that the season for Yakiimo (baked sweet potato) has started! At a local supermarket, there are a few new kinds of sweet potatoes I've never seen before. The best one is called
An-nou Imo from Kagoshima prefecture. It is very moist and sweet, the colour is orange. It's perfect for Yakiimo! It's nice to get stone baked sweet potatoes from a Yakiimo man in a truck, but I can make even better Yakiimo with this at home. I don't like gender stereotypes, but in Japan I often hear that 'women like sweet potatoes' and I guess it's true about our house...
Finally Comments work fine again! Thank you!
