From Steintor station in Hanover you can see this shiny building, the Gehry Tower.
(I had these two photos sitting on my phone for nearly a year, always forgot to use them.)

Oooh, this was so good! 😋 I used a curry udon soup recipe from the justonecookbook.com website to make this and it was easily one of the best Japanese style noodle soups we ever had.

All that’s in there is onion, meat of my choice (bacon! 😅), sake, dashi broth, curry cubes, soy sauce, udon noodles and a garnish of spring onions and shichimi togarashi. Even my son who normally prefers drier noodle dishes was loving it.

Three photos from this lovely sunny afternoon, perfect for a quick ride on my bicycle. 😊

Photo 3 is a vertical pano photo, and I like it best as it catches a lot of the sky and the sun. I cut the bottom off as it didn’t add anything to the scene.
(Because the other photos have very different dimensions I post them separately.)

Photo 2 is a horizontal pano photo to catch the whole scene but it didn’t get enough sky.
(Because the other photos have very different dimensions I post them separately.)

Three photos from this lovely sunny afternoon, perfect for a quick ride on my bicycle. 😊

Photo 1 is a “normal” photo, no change to the lense made (I think).

Lunch was a bit chaotic with me discovering more things in the fridge that needed to be used up than anticipated. 😅

I served:
🥢 rice with soybeans and a sour Japanese plum on top
🥢 blanched green asparagus next to soy mince that I soaked and boiled in leftover chashu marinade
🥢 kimchi
🥢 mirin pickles (cucumber and may turnip)
🥢 a “shiitake steak” with garlic and a balsamic glaze
🥢 fried pak choi
🥢 mapo dofu for the guys
🥢 miso soup

The most interesting item was the Japanese plum, none of us ever had a whole one. They are sour and slightly salty. I warned them but my guys ate them whole and at least one of them pulled a face (despite eating various pieces of “Toxic Waste” last night that were a lot stronger). 🤣 I bit off small segments and had them with rice and quite liked them that way.

Before and after. This looks very similar to yesterday but this is a dish with cubed tofu and Japanese hayashi sauce (demi-glace) and not curry. Since I like my little additions, marinated bamboo, tororo konbu (a kind of seaweed), toasted sesame seeds and spicy shichimi togarashi found their way onto my plate too. The little white specks in the sauce are caused by a tablespoon of wheat bran that I’m trying to use up.
