new years eve
After trying to herd the escaped rooster out of our back yard
we headed over to Berkeley, where Kenji was making the traditional (albeit at a non-traditional time) new years Ozoni soup.
Kombu broth:
Daikon:
Gobo
It was a beautiful clear day, and the sunset was dramatic
I was the grill man, which turned out to be a little dangerous on one of the windiest nights of the month. Periodically, a big gust would blow across the patio, acting like a giant bellows and scattering sparks everywhere. I guess the good news is that I didn't have to fan the flames at all.
Kenji honored me by putting the fish head in my bowl
but I graciously declined and gave it back to him
