Esta vez voy a escribir algo corto, que es lo que me pasó ayer.
Todos los fines de semana viene un señor a mi casa a vender tofu, que es el famoso queso de soya que actualmente no solo se utiliza en la comida japonesa, sino también en las comidas vegetarianas.
En mi casa preparan el tofu de muchas maneras: frito, al vapor con sillao y verduras, estilo champuru (“triturado” con el cucharón y mezclado con huevo y otras verduras), etc.

Pero no voy a hablar sobre el tofu, sino lo que el señor nos invitó para probar: sata andagi rectangulares.
This time I will write something short, it is what happened to me yesterday.
All weekends, a man comes at my home to sell tofu, which is the famous soy cheese used nowadays not only in Japanese cuisine but also in veggie food.
At home, tofu is prepared in different ways: fried, steamed with soy sauce and vegetables, champuru style (“crushed” with a ladle and mixed with eggs and vegetables, etc.)
But, this time I am not going to talk about the tofu, but what this man invited us to try: rectangular sata andagi.

 | ¡Sí! los conocidos sata andagi (o como se conocen aquí en Perú, bombitas) pero de forma rectangular, y como hemos visto en un artículo anterior, son redondos. Yes, the well known sata andagi (or “bombitas”, as is known in Peru) but in rectangular shape, and as we have seen in a previous post, they are round. |
El sabor es el mismo igual que la textura pero lo único que cambia es la forma, y nos dijo que es una señora que se ha animado para hacerlos en esa forma, y los estaba dando gratis para degustar.
A mi parecer, si empiezan a vender estos sata andagi rectangulares, seguramente serán un éxito, porque la forma alargada que tiene, hace que sea más fácil comerlos sin hacer migajas y por ser pequeños, podemos comerlos y conversar al mismo tiempo (en el caso que los compartamos con los amigos). Aunque podrían ser adictivos, porque como dice un famoso snack “una vez que lo pruebes, ya no puedes parar”.

The taste is the same, like the texture, but the only different thing is the shape, and he told us that is a lady who has felt like doing then in that shape, and she was giving away as samples.
In my opinion, if these rectangular sata andagi are started to be sold, probably they will be a hit, due to they long shape, which makes them easier to eat without crumbing; and for being small, we can eat them and chatting at same time (in case we are sharing them with friends).
Although they could be addictive, as a famous snack says: “once you pop, you can’t stop.
