Made vegetable stir fry (broccoli, zucchini, small portobello mushrooms) with jasmine rice...meanwhile, took three large portobello mushroom caps, topped with a tofu slice on each one, some of the cooked rice, some of the chopped veggies, all seasoned with tamari sauce, powdered ginger and sesame seeds, baked in oven for a bit. I added a little tahini to the caps before eating. Used olive oil and sesame oil for stir fry and in the baked dish. Very easy.
 
Well, its night now.
Dinner was a pretty tasteless turkey sandwich, neither the meat nor mayo had any taste, both are going out to the cats.
 
Hmmm, given today, it's a frozen pizza doctored up with mushrooms, olives, onions and cheese.

Been a less than optimum day.
That gives me an idea!
 
Made a few pot stickers and had some left over rice. I made my regular dipping sauce, soy sauce and the hottest mustard I have. But my sauce is better with a little ginger so I finally got to try my “experiment”.

I made a std 1:2 volume tincture out of ginger root about 7 weeks ago. 1) to use as medicine 2) use as a spice. Seems I’m always out of fresh ginger root or its gotten old and started to grow fur. Annoying when I want asian for dinner.

In tincture form the ginger doesn’t go bad for years. Now, anytime I need ginger in a stirfry etc I have plenty. I still have to work out a measurement comparison, how much tincture is equivalent a teaspoon of fresh root. Tonight half a dropper full of tincture was perfect in my sauce. Got lucky, was just guessing. @joel your ginger ready?
