#14 Hiyayako

冷や奴
Hiyayako is chilled tofu.
To make hiyayako you need:

1. Tofu
There are many kinds of tofu.
Today I bought this tofu at the supermarket.
It has yuzu in it. Yuzu is a kind of small citrus fruit.
This was more expensive than the tofu I usually buy. It was really delicious.

And you need:
2. Negi
If you look negi up in the dictionary it says: leek, spring onion, scallion, chives.
To me, negi looks like a cross between a leek and a spring onion. So I just call it negi.

And you need:
3. Ginger.
This ginger came to Tokyo all the way from Koichi prefecture in Shikoku.

And you need
4. Soy sauce.

First, open the packet.
Put the tofu into a bowl.
Put negi on the tofu.
Put some ginger on top.
Pour some soy sauce over it.
Now it’s ready to eat.
Goodbye.
