I’ve been making tofu and experimenting with okara burgers again. For today’s batch I added sweet potato, quinoa, garbanzos, and beets in addition to onion, celery, carrot, bell pepper, mushrooms and spices. They needed more starch/flour for some additional toothiness, but the flavor is good. I’ll freeze them tomorrow and see how long it takes me to work through them before the next attempt. #cooking #okara

Over 4 kilos of Okara from the local Tofu shop. I got about 3 kilos into 300-360g bags and the freezer. The freezer should keep more than Okara.so the rest went to the birds and into a compost bin. Some was mixed with commercial feed and water to ferment a bit in Mason jars that had past sauce.. They say fermenting the food doubles the nutrients for the birds. The wet fermented (maybe?) Mix lumps up with powder I when mixed with dry feed. So even a half-assed approach like mine probably helps the chickens get more out of the store-bought corn-based feed. Ideally I'd like the feed them all locally sourced food... eventually...

Becoming a Two-Trick Pony: adding an Okara-Carrot Cake recipe to the Jewish Apple Cake recipe that I got competent with... The Tofu-shop lady heard that I make these cakes for all of us to eat together at the free night school so she won't charge me for the 100 yen bags of 300 grams of Okara. I started taking her samples, and might have slipped in some Jewish Apple cake once too.. So I snuck out at lunch time to pick up some great stuff (eggs, 薩摩揚げ. Tofu.. ) today and the old guy just before me bought the last bag of Okara.. Awww, no extra cake today I though but the lady goes into the back and comes out with a big bag of Okara and tells me I can use it as fertilizer if I can't make cakes out of all of it.. So, I got to re-work the recipe today, remember to mix in Cinnamon and Nutmeg at every step, the breaking up of the okara step, the mixing in of the shredded carrot step, the mixing in of the flour, salt, and baking powder step.. I chopped up some mixed nuts and mixed them in once with all the dry ingredients, and then again after adding the Natane Oil and 4 eggs.. It's like anything, I guess, if you do it a few dozen times you get competent at it... The whole cake was gone after a while at the Free NIght School I had a few pieces in bags set aside for the volunteers that don't have time to eat during the gathering.. Today was a special Peace/War presentation and I learned of some local lore to follow up on, met some nice new people that work on that local history and it's transmission...

The Okara cake is nice with all the carrots in it too, it doesn't seem so much like empty calories as the Apple cake. I can eat a piece as a pre-breakfast before running outside to feed the animals..
