Mountain Vegetable Rice Mountain Vegetable Rice
This is a mountain vegetable filled mixed rice that I've been eating in the spring since I was little.In Matsuyama in Ehime prefecture, it's called "Moburi rice" or "Omoburi". Besides mountain vegetables, we add other veggies such as cooked dried shiitake mushrooms, carrots, burdock root, and lotus root, and mix them into the rice.In Matsuyama, we use a type of dried aburaage called "Matsuyama-age" without getting rid of the surface oil.Since the added ingredients contain moisture, cook the rice with a bit less water than usual.The added ingredients are flavored a bit strongly with a sweet-salty taste.Make sure the added ingredients are cooked thoroughly, and do not let them burn.If you need to add salt to the rice to adjust the flavor, sprinkle it on lightly and evenly.
