On September 10, the Hiroshima Toyo Carp (hereafter "Carp") won the Central League championship of professional baseball. As a genuine Swallows fan, I couldn't help but cry when I saw Kuroda and Arai crying and hugging each other. Congratulations to the Swallows!
I wanted to bring this excitement to the dinner table as well, so I found Machiko's "Red Healthy Cherry Tomatoes," which was introduced on the recipe site "Cookpad. It is a secret trick to transform small tomatoes into shiny red tomatoes in no time at all.
All you need are cherry tomatoes and mayonnaise.
Remove the heta and cut off one end of the tomato with the heta side facing you, about 3 mm thin. Use a well-cut knife as it will become the flange of the helmet.
Make a slit about 2 to 3 mm from the cut end of the remaining tomato, about halfway up.
Insert the cut-off tomato so that it looks like a spit, and the helmet is complete.
Now all that is left is to put mayonnaise on the tip of a toothpick or something similar and write a "C" mark on it. The trick is to wipe the surface well because it is difficult to write if there is moisture on the surface.
The color and luster of the mayonnaise is just like a red herring! If you put it on a green salad, it will surely bring back the excitement of the game.
As we head toward the Japan Series, we cannot take our eyes off the Central League. Try it out as a snack while watching the game or as a bento box lunch!
