A miracle that I did not gain any weight visiting these bakeries in Tokyo – thanking the no-car life with lots of yoga… Nevertheless, I am back on “spring detox” cleanse next week on mostly plant based protein intake. Sayonara Japanese breads, the biggest temptations there – it was not sushi…rather, it’s all the rolls, pastries, cakes, breads – “kashi-pan” plain as in “melon-pan” or filled with jam, custard creams, chocolate puddings, bean pastes, savory and sweet … they are the biggest temptations.
The much loved import from India for decades must be flavor of curry. Here in Japan. You find it of course on rice, even in udon noodles but most loved baked into bread. 3-5 varieties at this bakery near banks of Sumida river.
