What makes your everyday avocado toast special?
The answer would be some things. Sauce.Fresh ingredients.Bread.Good preparations.
I made the best avocado on toast.Ever.
As usual, with Japanese twist.
The sauce is basically salsa verde, but used Japanese ingredients.
For the tomatillo..you may be able to find them at Mexican grocery store or wholefoods.
It is the best to use them because flavour is wonderful.
Shishito is Japanese green peppers, their heat is mild and has good flavor.
Yuzu, Japanese citrus, you can sub Mayers lemon instead.Or just simply, lime.
Shungiku.This is edible chrisantemum leaves.
Sometimes Western people call it Shinjuku, but it is wrong.I don't know who started call them as Shinjuku, Shinjuku is a name of a city of Tokyo.Everytime when I hear it I want to laugh but I haven't corrected it. You can find them at Japanese or Korean market.If you couldn't find them, use cilantro.
And the bread.
I used bread from Vancouver's popular baker Annabel Choi's Companion bread.
When I got home with it, my room was filled with smell of freshly baked bread.Happy moment.
They sell their breads on Sundays at Juice truck's store. Check it out.
