I accidentally added too much spice and ended up with slightly bitter spicy curry udon, but it turned out delicious.

There is a limited edition matcha ice cream available at the tea shop on the first floor of Kyoto Tower.

A meeting related to spices is about to begin.

When I make curry udon, I marinate the soup with spices before preparing the broth. It turns out incredibly delicious, and my wife compliments it.

Coriander is an essential spice in spicy curry. Interestingly, it's not widely known that coriander is actually cilantro.

I found coriander seeds at a local store that sells locally grown vegetables. They seem to be homegrown. Although they are a bit expensive, it's worth it.
