Yes! Now we are in the summer time as Haru told you in the previous blog.
When I think about stamina food (スタミナ料理といえば、、）, Unagi comes to my mind...(うなぎが思い浮かぶけれど・・・）. How about you ? What do you think stamina food? ( みんなにとってスタミナ料理ってなにかなぁ？）
Anyway, did you know Unagi in English? (うなぎって英語でなにか知ってたかな？）
The answer is Japanese sea eel. When I was asked about sea eel at a Japanese restaurant in the United States, I had to explain to customers that are same shape as a sea snake( アメリカの当時勤め先の和食レストランで それがどういうものなのか聞かれたときはsea snakeというように言われていたけれど..それは結局和訳するとウミヘビ・・・）。 We don't usually realize its real shape because it is served as a dish. But,, we Japanese eat snakes?? I don't want to think about it deeply.
I hope everybody will get through this year's hot summer with unagi power.
