Fried Rice with Tempeh by John Spottiswood

This is a delicious and healthy way to have fried rice. The tempeh provides a salty nuttiness similar to adding bacon, but with healthy goodness too. We tend to throw in whatever we have on hand, and the recipe below sort of demonstrates that. Using this method and sauce, you can add just about anything to the fried rice and it…

As a Japanese american, I have a soft spot for donburi (Japanese term for just about anything served over rice). Our kids love it too. We mix up a warm bowl of brown and white rice and cover it with something warm, salty, sweet, and occasionally a bit spicy. This is rib sticking good, and best served in fall, winter or the early…

When he was younger, his father used to…
