We picked up some fresh fish this morning and decided tonight’s dinner would be sushi or sashimi. We were leaning towards sushi because we recently received some recently harvested rice from our family. Sushi is a nice dinner choice that allows the rice to shine and not be over-powered by other flavours.When I think sushi and sashimi, I think a sour element involved. For sushi, the rice is mixed with sugar, salt and vinegar while it is still hot. As for sashimi, well traditionally there is no sour element. But I like citrus fruits, and when I came to Tokushima I couldn’t help but add some sudachi, a local citrus fruit to my soy sauce when having sashimi. Least you think this was only my idea, I will let you know that others thought of it first and actually suggested it to me. My guess is that with all the sudachi grown here in Tokushima, the people constantly look for ways to enjoy its taste.Where was I? OK, citrus fruits, sour flavours. Last weekend while visiting with family we received a lot of sudachi and we also freshly squeezed a few hundred of them for some fresh juice. When the world gives you lemons...I got busy this morning and made my pie crust, then went to work on the filling. I do a butter-less crust for a couple of reasons. Number one is that butter is expensive and though I love it, I save it for other uses. Secondly, the oil crust I make is easy to make, takes little time and tastes delicious.For the filling, I used Mark Bittman’s lemon meringue pie recipe as a guideline. Yes, a couple of substitutions were made but that is part of cooking.I made a mental note to take pictures of the pie to show for the blog today. Guess what? Look at the picture. By the time I’d remembered to take a picture, over half of the pie was devoured. How was the pie? As if the picture doesn’t tell you, I’ll add a comment one of my daughters made while eating either her first or second slice. She said that this is the kind of pie she could eat every day for dessert. My wife sort of concurred by stating that we still have more of the sudachi juice leftover in the fridge, meaning that should I want to, I can make another pie.With compliments like that, what else can I do?
