194. Her Favorite Dishes When She was advanced in age, Oyasama from time to time ate raw sweet potatoes grated with a horseradish grater. Also, She occasionally drank sweet rice wine from a small cup. Her favorite brand was made by the Matsumoto brewery in Senzai. So people in the Residence went with a gourd-shaped flask to buy sweet rice wine for Oyasama. Her favorites were dishes of rice with assorted vegetables. Among these were rice with sweet potatoes, rice with beans, rice with dried gourd shavings, with matsutake mushrooms, and with pumpkins. If people came by chance while She was having one of these rice dishes, She would make a rice-ball and offer it to them. She was also fond of kakinoha zushi, marinated fish and rice wrapped in persimmon leaves which are plucked when they have a pleasant aroma after new buds have sprouted. |
一九四 お召し上がり物 教祖は、高齢になられてから、時々、生の薩摩藷を、ワサビ下ろしですったものを召し上がった。 又、味醂も、小さい盃で、時々召し上がった。殊に、前栽の松本のものがお気に入りで、瓢箪を持って買いに行っては、差し上げた、という。 又、芋御飯、豆御飯、乾瓢御飯、松茸御飯、南瓜御飯というような、色御飯がお好きであった。そういう御飯を召し上がっておられるところへ、人々が来合わすと、よく、それでお握りようのものを拵えて、下された。 又、柿の葉ずしがお好きであった。これは、柿の新芽が伸びて香りの高くなった頃、その葉で包んで作ったすしである。 |
