I know, it’s the last day of August. There’s still 116 days ’til Christmas according to Organized Christmas. This year, I promised myself, we would be more organized, and therefore, hopefully, more relaxed. Relaxed enough to celebrate the season — and the Reason — the way it’s meant to be. While […]
My crisper had nothing that evening but some lettuce, avocadoes and green onions. So I thought — perfect! We’ll have a green salad! Doesn’t make for a very good picture here as you can see, but it did make for some good eating.
1/4 cup miso of your choice
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 […]
Another dish that comes from the excellent book by , Cradle of Flavor. It is very similar to Filipino ginisa, so people familiar with that dish will definitely like this. The main difference is that this uses coconut milk. I made a few substitutions based on what I had here, but the […]
I am so deeply, terribly embarrassed. The guys at Funchop sent me these samples WAAAAAY back, in November I believe, and I promised to do a review. Between then and now, I had my kids try them, communicated my questions and got a response from their contact person, took pictures, and uploaded […]
Use it in your sushi, or around it. Shred it and put it in your spring roll. Or sprinkle your salad with it. Pad Thai wouldn’t be complete without it.
What could be easier? Film your wok or skillet with oil. Beat an egg, season appropriately and cook for […]
This dish isn’t that different from regular American beef stew, except some ingredients common to Filipino cooking are used.
3 pounds chuck roast, cut into cubes (or leave whole but tie the roast)
4 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
cornstarch for coating beef, optional
1/4 cup canola or other cooking oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 […]
They come in all sizes, to suit the dish, and your preference. Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large, just like shirts, only yummier! Mostly used in Thai and Vietnamese Cuisine, but adaptable for most Asian cuisines and even non-Asian cooking. And if you’re trying to avoid gluten or wheat, these are perfect […]
A really easy way to add flavor and crunch to your Asian dishes. The oil itself can be used for stir-frying, or to drizzle over food right before serving. You can cook the shallots until they’re golden and crunchy and use it as topping for noodle dishes like mee rebus, or over your […]
The original recipe came from SIM Cooks. I just adapted it to suit our family of 6. The ingredients are listed, but do refer to her recipe for instructions. It is a multi-stepped recipe, but the shrimp stock can be prepared ahead of time. As you can see, mine didn’t crust […]
From Culinary Currents, a super-quick recipe (once you’ve got the components assembled and ready) from Chinatown Brasserie’s Executive chef Tyson Wong Ophaso.
