										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>*I teamed up with <a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed">On The Umami</a> to bring you this post and recipe for Tomato Shio Ramen.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22760" src="https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Tomato-Shio-Ramen-5.jpg" alt="" width="700" height="512" srcset="https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Tomato-Shio-Ramen-5.jpg 700w, https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Tomato-Shio-Ramen-5-300x219.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></p>
<p>The past few months have been, well, insane.&nbsp; Between the normal life stuff like being mom and trying to keep up with laundry, I was finishing up my first semester of teaching at Utah Valley University, recovering from gall bladder surgery and the accompanying allergic reaction to antibiotics, then following that up with the knee surgery that my gall bladder postponed, starting a new job at the university as the deputy director of a center, and then topping it all off with website and email problems. A perfect storm of normal, awful, weird, and awesome!&nbsp; I wasn&#8217;t sure this post was going to happen, but good food prevails.&nbsp; Bring on the ramen!</p>
<p><span id="more-22751"></span></p>
<p>On to more delicious topics . . .</p>
<p>Dashi is one of the foundational pieces of Japanese cuisine.&nbsp; Dashi is the name for a family of Japanese stocks used throughout Japanese cuisine for soups and stews, the base of flavored broths to make simmered dishes, and as an ingredient in dishes in place of water to add more flavor.&nbsp; If someone is familiar with Japanese cooking, they are usually familiar with of one of the most common types of dashi, made with kombu and katsuobushi (preserved, fermented skipjack tuna).&nbsp; But there are many types of dashi made with a wide variety of ingredients.&nbsp; Over the years companies have developed instant dashi granules to make cooking quick and easy (kind of like using bouillon), but my favorite method of making dashi, other than making it from scratch is with a dashi pack.&nbsp; They are like giant tea bags, filled with dried dashi ingredients.&nbsp; You add them to water and simmer them to make dashi.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22753" src="https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/BLOG-On-the-Umami-Packaging.jpg" alt="" width="700" height="518" srcset="https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/BLOG-On-the-Umami-Packaging.jpg 700w, https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/BLOG-On-the-Umami-Packaging-300x222.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></p>
<p><a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed">On The Umami</a> is a Japanese company that has created a dashi pack line to make it easy for anyone to make and enjoy authentic Japanese broth.&nbsp; Their dashi packs are all made from domestic ingredients with no chemical seasonings or preservatives.&nbsp; They reached out to me to let me know that they had 2 new dashi packs that are vegan and have received the first vegan certification in Japan for dashi packs. (Pretty cool!)&nbsp; One is a <a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed/products/umami-dashi-vegetables/?utm_source=youtube&amp;utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_campaign=LaFujiMama">vegetable dashi pack</a> and one is a <a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed/products/umami-dashi-tomato/?utm_source=youtube&amp;utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_campaign=LaFujiMama">tomato dashi pack</a>.&nbsp; They sent me some of both to try and we love them both.&nbsp; Super easy to use and delicious.&nbsp; As a mom, and now as a mom with a new job, that is a winning combo.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I have always loved tomatoes, though I took that love into obsession territory when I was pregnant with Squirrel, eating them by the dozen like apples.&nbsp; After trying both the <a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed/products/umami-dashi-vegetables/?utm_source=youtube&amp;utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_campaign=LaFujiMama">vegetable</a> and <a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed/products/umami-dashi-tomato/?utm_source=youtube&amp;utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_campaign=LaFujiMama">tomato dashi</a>, it was a pretty easy choice for me to go with the <a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed/products/umami-dashi-tomato/?utm_source=youtube&amp;utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_campaign=LaFujiMama">tomato dashi</a>.&nbsp; I decided to create a tomato ramen, with a shio (salt) tare base.&nbsp; Tare is the primary seasoning of ramen, and shio tare, or salt tare, is one of the classic tares.&nbsp; It&#8217;s a good choice for lighter, more subtle flavors like tomato.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Ramen is made up of 5 key components: noodles (it wouldn&#8217;t ramen without them!), tare, broth, oil/fat, and toppings.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22755" src="https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Tomato-Ramen-Components.jpg" alt="" width="700" height="467" srcset="https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Tomato-Ramen-Components.jpg 700w, https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Tomato-Ramen-Components-300x200.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></p>
<p>For this tomato ramen, I really wanted to incorporate as much tomato into the soup as possible, so I incorporated them into 4 of the 5 elements (I saved making tomato noodles for another day):</p>
<ol>
<li>Tomato broth: I made tomato broth using the <a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed/products/umami-dashi-tomato/?utm_source=youtube&amp;utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_campaign=LaFujiMama">On The Umami tomato dashi pack</a>.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Tomato shio tare: I used some of the tomato broth to make the shio tare.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Roasted plum tomato oil for the oil/fat component.</li>
<li>Roasted kumamoto tomato halves for one of the toppings.</li>
</ol>
<p>I was very happy with how it turned out.&nbsp; Most of the components can be made ahead of time, which makes this doable for someone who has a busy schedule!&nbsp; If you want to see this being made, I put together a short video for just that purpose.</p>

<p>Both the <a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed/products/umami-dashi-vegetables/?utm_source=youtube&amp;utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_campaign=LaFujiMama">vegetable</a> and <a href="https://umamito.com/collections/dashi-packed/products/umami-dashi-tomato/?utm_source=youtube&amp;utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_campaign=LaFujiMama">tomato On The Umami dashi</a> packs are a new staple in our pantry.&nbsp; They are great for Japanese cuisine and non-Japanese cuisine alike. (Also, in case you are interested in trying some, they offer free worldwide shipping on all orders.)</p>

<p>I&#8217;m a huge scone fan, but all too often scones are dense and dry.&nbsp; I like my scones to be rich, and a tiny bit flaky, like a good biscuit&#8211;not cakey.&nbsp; These lavender biscuits fit the bill and make a delicious addition to a picnic or an afternoon tea party.&nbsp; I love the flavor of lavender, but if you use dried lavender flowers, it&#8217;s all too easy to get an unpleasant soapy flavor.&nbsp; My favorite way to get the flavor I love, without the soapy addition, is to use <a href="https://www.doterra.com/US/en/p/lavender-oil?utm_campaign=us_jul_2021&amp;utm_source=facebook&amp;utm_medium=social_organic&amp;utm_content=so_us_RachaelHutchings_LaFujiMama_doterrarecipes">doTERRA Lavender Essential Oil</a>.&nbsp; A little bit goes a long way!&nbsp; For this recipe, I use one single drop!&nbsp; Not only is lavender delicious, but it has a wonderful soothing effect when ingested.&nbsp; I&#8217;ll take all the soothing I can get!<span id="more-22728"></span></p>

<p>The dough whips up really quickly using a pastry cutter (or two forks) and a spatula.&nbsp; Then you form the dough into a square, cut it into 9 squares, brush the tops with a bit of milk then sprinkle them with sugar, transfer them to a baking sheet, and bake them in a preheated oven until the edges are beginning to turn golden brown.&nbsp; That&#8217;s it.&nbsp;</p>

<p>It&#8217;s spring!!!!!&nbsp; Who else loves spring?&nbsp; I love the sounds of birds, the appearance of blossoms and bright green leaves on previously bare branches, and the return of warmer temperatures.&nbsp; All of these things have me wanting to be outside more and signal the return of picnic and grilling weather!&nbsp; One of my favorite outdoor foods that seem to go well in any picnic meal is a good dip.&nbsp; Dips can accompany cut vegetables, chips, and crackers, making a fantastic side dish or snack.&nbsp; Today I am sharing a recipe for a versatile lemon basil white bean dip.&nbsp; It features <a href="https://www.doterra.com/US/en/p/lemon-oil?utm_campaign=us_may_2021&amp;utm_source=facebook&amp;utm_medium=social_organic&amp;utm_content=so_us_05_13_RachaelHutchings_LaFujiMama_doterrarecipes">doTERRA&#8217;s Lemon Oil</a> which provides delicious flavor, but also provides cleansing and digestive benefits and supports healthy respiratory function.&nbsp; (Win, win!)&nbsp; <span id="more-22711"></span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22720" src="https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Making-Lemon-Basil-White-Bean-Dip.jpg" alt="" width="700" height="922" srcset="https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Making-Lemon-Basil-White-Bean-Dip.jpg 700w, https://www.lafujimama.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Making-Lemon-Basil-White-Bean-Dip-228x300.jpg 228w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></p>
<p>There are 2 keys to making this delicious dip&#8211;high quality ingredients and technique.&nbsp; To get a creamy, light texture, you will start by creaming tahini together with some of the liquid from the white beans together with the lemon oil.&nbsp; You will process the dip several more times as additional ingredients are added.&nbsp; You could skip this and process everything together, but the result will be a heavier dip.&nbsp; Hey, it&#8217;s up to you!</p>
<p>P.S. This dip can be more than just a dip!&nbsp; Spread it on a sandwich or a wrap in place of mayo or other condiments for tons of extra flavor.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s really quite simple to make and so delicious.&nbsp; You can make it in a donabe, or Japanese clay pot, or in a large saute pan.&nbsp; I used 3 different types of mushrooms to make this particular nabe&#8211;dried shiitake mushrooms (both to make the stock, and then as an ingredient in the nabe, eryngii (King Trumpet mushrooms), and buna shimeji (beech mushrooms), but you can substitute your favorite mushrooms if you like.</p>

<p>I know we technically have 9 more days until Spring officially makes her debut, but we have recently had some warm days here in northern Utah that have me thinking that Spring is trying to pull a fast one on Mother Nature.&nbsp; It has me a springy mood, wanting to pull out lighter clothing and make things like lemonade. <span id="more-22650"></span></p>
<p>One of my favorite ways to make homemade lemonade is to dress it up with an herby simple syrup, especially a rosemary simple syrup.&nbsp; Rosemary and lemonade were made to go together&#8211;whether it&#8217;s in savory dishes or sweet, they make each other sing. Rosemary was a sacred plant in ancient Greece, and its use daters back to 500 B.C., when it was used by the ancient Roman and Grecian cultures as a medicinal herb, as well as in their cooking.&nbsp; It&#8217;s no wonder, as it supports healthy digestion and internal organ function when it is ingested.&nbsp; It&#8217;s scent is energizing as well.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The absolute easiest way to add rosemary to simple syrup is through the use of <a href="https://www.doterra.com/US/en/p/rosemary-oil?utm_campaign=us_mar_2021&amp;utm_source=facebook&amp;utm_medium=social_organic&amp;utm_content=so_us_03_11_RachaelHutchings_LaFujiMama_doterrarecipes">doTERRA Rosemary essential oil</a>.&nbsp; A few drops and a moment of your time will transform your simple syrups into flavorful sweeteners.&nbsp; Join me welcoming spring with this refreshing rosemary lemonade!</p>

<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is almost here and I&#8217;ve got a brownie recipe that is&nbsp;<em>perfect</em> to help you celebrate.&nbsp; &#8220;A brownie recipe?&#8221; you might say.&nbsp; &#8220;Aren&#8217;t there already 30 bazillion brownie recipes out there?&nbsp; Why do we need&nbsp;<em>another</em>&nbsp;<em>one</em>?&#8221;&nbsp; Well, you don&#8217;t have this one!&nbsp; Several things make it special:</p>
<ul>
<li>It&#8217;s free of gluten, eggs, and dairy, and can be easily made soy-free as well.&nbsp; But wait! These brownies are still rich and decadent and do not taste gluten-free.&nbsp; No weird textures here!&nbsp; Oat flour has become one of my favorite substitutes in baking because it helps produce a moist-tender crumb in things like cakes and muffins.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>It&#8217;s lower in fat because it doesn&#8217;t use any oil or other added fat.&nbsp; Instead, it uses pumpkin puree.&nbsp; And no, it doesn&#8217;t taste like pumpkin!</li>
<li>It uses a couple drops of <a href="https://www.doterra.com/US/en/search/fullsearch?saveSearch=false&amp;text=on+guard&amp;contentType=PRODUCT?utm_campaign=us_feb_2021&amp;utm_source=facebook&amp;utm_medium=social_organic&amp;utm_content=so_us_RachaelHutchings_LaFujiMama_onguard">doTERRA&#8217;s On Guard essential oil blend</a>, giving it a hint of spice (wild orange peel, clove bud, cinnamon leaf, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus leaf, and rosemary leaf/flower)&#8211;the perfect way to amp up the flavor for Valentine&#8217;s Day.</li>
