Re: Kinpira!
The celery kinpira is basically celery stir-fried in olive oil with salt and pepper and was quite good; I never could eat a lot of celery at once, which was a shame because it's so cheap, but this recipe turns it into a proper side dish. The cabbage core kinpira calls for curry seasoning and nigella seeds. I don't have any nigella, but the curry seasoning by itself is tasty. And I finally found a use for the hunk I always had to cut out of the cabbage. Cabbage core, BTW, has a nutty taste and is pleasantly crisp if you cut it into julienne.
