So I went to the grocery last Saturday and bought a bottle of this thing that looks like cooking oil.
The next day, I decided to prepare some toast and sunny-side up egg for breakfast.
That Sunday was my very first attempt to cook ever since I got here.
For some reason, the Fates seem to be teasing me for the moment I crack and drop the egg unto the pan
I sensed that something was just wrong with what I am doing.
The supposed oil wasn't kicking molecules up in the air at the mere contact with the egg
and as seconds tick by the egg seems to caramelized at the edge.
I glared at the "supposed oil", smelled and took a spoon-tip dip for a taste.
That's when I realized THIS isn't oil.....
It just can't be oil since it tastes freakin' SWEET!
I tweeted the image to my dear friend Hitomi and that's when she told me that it isn't oil but a
MIRIN-flavoured sauce ! (ﾉ_-｡)
P.S.
I have a feeling that my stay here in Japan is going to be hilarious, like full of misfits.
P.P.S.
Finally got a connection here at the apartment!
