Today's lunch : kimchi fried rice. 🔥

One of my favorite ways to turn fridge leftovers into a proper meal.

Feeling grateful to have such delicious locally made kimchi here in the Kootenays.

For fried rice, I like using well-aged kimchi that's developed a nice tangy sourness. It adds so much flavor.

Fresh kimchi is delicious too but honestly, I'd rather enjoy that as it is.

Thank you ❤️

Sockeye season is almost here.

That also means the salmon we're serving today was probably harvested close to a year ago.

Kind of wild when you think about it.

Good freezing technology and reliable electricity make it possible for us to enjoy great salmon all year round, even here in the interior.

Of course, some of the dams and infrastructure that help power our lives have also reduced salmon runs in some places.

A bit of an irony, isn't it?

Either way, I'm grateful for the salmon.

Gyoza prep day! 🥬

Here's a little Napa cabbage trick.

Cut a cross into the stem end, then tear it into quarters by hand.

Less mess, fewer little cabbage pieces flying around the kitchen 😊

We will be closed today (Saturday the June 13th) to Tuesday the 16th for renovations.Very sorry for the inconvenience 🙏

We had some extra beets at the restaurant, so I turned them into borscht today.

What would you have made?

By the way, did you know borscht originated in Ukraine?🇺🇦 I always thought it was Russian.

New batch 🙌

We've mixed rice koji with 35% sea salt, added water, and now our job is done.
The rest is up to the koji mold )Aspergillus oryzae known as Koji-kin), to do what it does best.

As for the batch that survived the power outage...unfortunately, it ended up growing mold and had to be discarded 🥲

Fingers crossed this one turns out beautifully‼️

Last week's storm knocked out the power and stopped our fermenter. We thought all was lost...

But this little batch refused to give up!

Now it's on its new adventure, transforming into salt Koji. Wish us luck and delicious results 😊
