The Delicious Tea Postcard series introduces seasonal dishes made with tea, illustrated in an adorable style. For January, it is turnip and fried tofu salad with genmaicha dressing.

Turnip, known as suzuna among Japan's seven herbs of spring, is a lovely ingredient to enjoy in January. Often simmered, it also becomes wonderfully juicy when grilled. Crispy fried tofu and genmaicha dressing add a roasted aroma to this simple yet carefully prepared dish.
