「路麺に行けない日は家麺の日」
今年初の路麺の日に路麺活動が出来ないので気分だけでもと家でうどんを作ることにしました。
めん楽のゆでうどんとカネサダのまる天を買いました。材料費130円（笑）
Hi there, how are you? How was the first Romen Day this year, yesterday? I hope you did enjoy your first Romen activity yesterday. Unfortunately, I didn't do that because I am still in Osaka and I didn't have free time at noontime.
I would have liked to feel the first Romen Day, then I cooked udon noodles.
I bought boiled udon noodles by Fujimoto Foods in Nara prefecture as same as soba noodles I cooked on the other day. And I bought Maruten of Kanesada, a nation wide fish cake company.
味だし名人はいりこと昆布の風味が強いのでうどんに最適。
でもやっぱり決め手はヒガシマル醤油のうすくち！おそらく大阪の家庭には絶対にあるんじゃないかなあ？たぶん関西トップシェアの醤油だと思います。知らんけど。
色は薄いですけど塩分濃度は普通の醤油より濃いってヒガシマルの中の人が言ってました。
I cooked the udon soup by a packed mix broth Ajidashi-Meijin, salt, sugar, sake and Higashimaru thin-colored soy sauce. I am pretty sure, this Higashimaru thin-colored soy sauce is the most popular soy sauce in Kansai area which is produced in Hyogo prefecture. In contrast of the thin color, the soy sauce has higher concentration of salt according to the staff of Higashimaru.
いつものそば汁よりも色が薄いの分かりますか？
I put Maruten, tenkasu(fried small flour ball), and expired sliced green onions.
You can see the thinner colored soup compared from soba soup I usually cooked.
少し塩を入れすぎてしょっぱいですが、典型的な関西うどんに仕上がりました。
蕎麦よりも手軽ですね～。ごちそうさまでした。
It tastes just typical udon noodles in Kansai area but it was a little bit salty. I put a bit too much salt into the soup. I think cooking udon soup is easier than soba soup.
3連休を楽しみましょう。
Thank you for reading my blog. Have a nice three-days weekend!
English lesson review.
I took an English lesson by a little bit strange teacher. He was grown up in Yemen but he lived in Egypt when the last lesson in 2020. But this time, he lives in Russia. He said he will live in Russia for at least 5 years. I asked him the reason why he decided to move to Russia, but he didn't say the detail well. He is an Muslim and he said Central and East Russia has arabic culture because USSR included Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, or so. And Islamic culture is remained there. He said that's one of the reasons he decided to move to Russia.
Islam has the different calender, Arabic calender. He said Muslim don't celebrate the new year on January 1st. Muslim celebrate Adha. He explained Adha using a word "sacrifice" but I didn't understand because I am not familer with Islam at all.
If you want to enjoy conversations with foreign people, you need to learn not only language but also culture and traditions.
Some of reader may realize that the rhyme in this article, Yemen and Ie-men.
