Flipped the salt pork. Probably has another 2 hours in the oven at 275

Nice catch on the box of broth. That is reason #32 for using "Better than Bouillon®" (and it's kept in the fridge).
 
Anyway, keep on keepin on! Lookin good dude!
 
Thanks, hopefully it turns out well. 
 
That broth could of been a killer, especially with her 86 yo grandma coming to dinner.

That's some seriously good cooking there D3.  Nice work.  ;)
 
Good luck with your inlaws.  
 
Thanks, much more to go still, Working on pickling some radishes and finishing up that salt pork. Had a small bite and while it is salty it's also really good. Sort of like corned beef.

86 y.o.'s like spicy. Their tastes buds are worn out.
 
True story! HEAT IT UP! lol
 
I'm already worried about the 3 little peppers in that big pot of broth being too much for her. Too late now though. I just wanted to invite her uncle and somehow it turned into a whole family event when they all old and tasteless. Her moms BF can't have too much salt... well wrong mofukin recipe buddy. It's all salt.

Consistently impressed with your willingness to Do Work ...
 
 
I make things harder than they need to be too often.
 
I did a quick taste test of what I made last night and it's got a nice stick to your taste buds thickness with a good warmth. Not a scorcher but probably too warm for the majority. I like the heat range and i'm sure my stepdaughter will as well. 
 
I got 2 qt of stock left, going to toss in a few bouillon cubes, garlic, ginger and scallions. Make a quick weak batch and serve that to her gram and use as a cutting agent for the other two. I can add half weak batch and half spicy and get all around tolerable results I think. 
 
Sounds like it would work out ...
 
I tasted the white soy plain, as we discussed ... it's "less" soy ...
 
It's probably about half the funk-soy-factor of plain soy ...
 
I think I'll do a side-by-side bowl shootout of it versus soy in the coming days to really see what's up ...
 
It's def tasty - but is it necessary - we'll see ...

yea if it's not worth the price tag i'll hold out for something else. Really want the smoked shoyu but no prime shipping. They wanted like $28 to ship it... that's insane. 
 
I think the majority of the heat in the broth is from some white pepper I added. 
 
I would hold off on the white soy, i'm doubtful it's a necessary ingredient for soups and/or hot food - and probably more useful when a dressing (unheated) ... or, like, sushi!

ok good to know, I'd probably enjoy a dark or smoked soy more. 
 
Elderly batch sans celery as i'm out.
