Boiled Lime Kale and Spinach Banh Mi
Sunday, March 1, 2020
A French-Vietnamese sandwich with olive oil spread and Japanese nanami tagarashi pepper flakes. I seared the kale in lime juice and salt to breakdown the bitterness, but charred them to smoke the taste. That’s the baguette lunch. I have hot (black) tea, ripe mango and hot cross (raisin-orange) bun for dessert. The last banh mi I made in NYC was with baked tofu and carrots and fresh spears of cukes, skin on; and dipped it in sweet fish sauce. Yesterday, I went to the goodwill MFOL bookstore in Puunene and got W.S. Merwin and James Baldwin books for 50 cents. It's a rainy Sunday and grey and windy here in Waiuku, yet the river pebbles in my room reminded me of my walk yesterday at the Waihe'e Coastal Dunes & Wetlands Refuge where at the end of the walk-trail was the stream water from the mountains meeting the sea. The condition of my heart is settled for later reading.
