Watched #PerfectDays a little while ago. It was full of scenes of an ongoing, everyday routine, and I got the sense that maybe the director was trying to say that a perfect day is exactly that — an ordinary routine kept up. Thinking about it, keeping up your daily routine really is one of the hardest things in the world. It's practically a miracle.
#enokikonjacstirfry served with a magic chili oil made from chili and sesame stir-fried into chili oil, infused with sichuan pepper, garlic, ginger, peanuts, and even doubanjiang from Pidu district in Chengdu, Sichuan — so potent that just a few drops turn any dish Sichuan-style.
Ingredients
Enoki mushroom, as much as you'd like to eat, 1 bag konjac noodles (shirataki), soy sauce, mirin, scallions
Steps
1. Trim about 2cm off the base of the enoki mushroom stem and pull the mushrooms apart.
2. Drain the konjac noodles, add salt, and rub/massage them.
3. Heat a pan, add a bit of water, blanch the konjac noodles, and once the water reduces, add 1T sesame oil and the enoki mushroom, and mix well.
4. Add 2T soy sauce and 1T mirin and stir-fry.
5. Plate it and top with finely chopped scallion and a little chili oil.
