Salmon & Egg with Nori, Sweet Potato & Persimmon
A Japanese workday breakfast with grilled salmon, an egg omelet with nori and mentaiko, sweet simmered pumpkin and sweet potato, and persimmon — homemade in Japan before work.
On the tray
My breakfast included grilled salmon. I also had an egg omelet with nori seaweed and mentaiko, which is seasoned cod roe.
There was sweet simmered pumpkin and sweet potato on the tray. Shishito pepper, a mild Japanese chili pepper, was pickled in white dashi, a simple broth.
Miso soup with eggplant and maitake mushrooms accompanied the meal. I finished with yogurt, banana, blueberries and figs that had been simmered in red wine, and a fresh persimmon.
I ate breakfast before going to work.
