Chef's Tips
-
The work becomes very easy when you use a Japanese mandolin, available affordably online at Amazon or in most cooking stores. The idea is to use greens, veggies, roasted squash or sweet potato, a protein item like eggs, and whole grains. Feel free to use what you like or what is seasonal in your area.
