So in Portland we know food! Being among the ranks of elite foodies in the nation we can boast knowledge about some of the best and least known foods out there. When it comes to Japanese food though I think a lot of America is still pretty in the dark. Oh sure we know about Sushi and the chicken or beef skewers, yakitori and yakiniku. Some may even know about Japanese Ramen! Well prepare for a true taste of Japanese delight. From the Japanese household to your door, Portland Pedal Power is pleased to offer you food delivery of the ultimate Japanese comfort dish, Kalé. Being an ex-gaijin myself, living and teaching English in the magical place I like to refer to as “Japan Wonderland” I ate and cooked about 3 things. Only two of these things did I cook successfully. One was prepackaged ramen (thank you college). The other was this magnificent dish Kalé that I ate 4 nights out of the week. So I would like to personally thank you, Makoto Yoshino, for bringing this culinary piece of Japan to the States! Oh how I’ve missed it so!
To learn why Kalé is Japan’s ultimate comfort food and my personal favorite dish that I need in my life, read on and take a bite!
