[RECIPE] Vegetable Tenshin-Don

Tenshin-don or Tenshin-han is a Chinese-inspired Japanese dish, traditionally combining a crab meat omlette with cooked rice and a savory sauce served in a bowl. Our version features a vegetable-based sauce using dried carrot and spinach. The natural umami flavor from the vegetable dashi adds a delightful touch, transforming this dish in a nourishing and comforting meal.
