Oh my...more Asian
Today is Cantonese beef stew with daikon. Ive been wanted to try this recipe for sometime now. The Chu Hou paste is hard to find but i have some.
http://en.christinesrecipes.com/2008/08/stewed-beef-brisket-in-chu-hou-sauce.html
The only alterations i did is quadrupled the green onion, added a bay leaf and a little peppercorn to the spices. I did cut back to only 2 star anise because im not a huge fan of the flavor. I may add some salted fermented black beans near the end. They add a neat salty burst if you bite into one.
Edit: Crap, most of my daikon is bad and the ones at the closest market look like hell too. I guess im going to have to use some carrot and rehydrate some black tree ear mushroom.

Fat and sodium overload but it was worth it.
Lobster bisque with day old sourdough, olive oil/butter and fresh grated Asiago crostini. Damn that was tasty. The "bite" of the sourdough and Asiago helped offset the cloying sweetness of the bisque.

I used to live down the road from a great Thai "hole in the wall". If you asked for #5 spicy you better REALLY be able to handle spicy. I got the Tom Yum #5 once and it was brutal. I could eat it but just barely. I think they rather enjoyed watching me nearly die from the heat.
That fiery bowl of soup is what cured a eating problem i had for over a month. Everything i ate tasted off and chalky until that day. I could not enjoy a meal until i endured that wonderful agony.

This was 4 . I don't go 5* on a first visit usually , unless someone I know recommends it. I will go 4 or ask server what level they like/ recommend. Nuclear is fun some times but not necessarily the best taste balance wise. I think I will switch to tom kha gai and bump up 5* on next visit. Hopefully they are fairly consistent in there spicing scale. Some places it is Russian roulette on what 5* means today. Lol
Tom Kha chicken is great. Tom Yum noodles are really good but only one place i know of makes it with seafood. The others don't offer it at all or its made with pork. I like it with fish balls, shrimp and fish cakes.
Clam Chowder and Sourdough from a bit back.
Apparently my phone had a few too many beers.

Had to try one of the older Korean places on the edge of our China town. I was craving a bowl of spicy seafood noodle soup. Korean jamppong is one of my favorites but i didn't feel like making it from scratch. Asian Kitchen in known for the plethora of side dishes (bachans) served with any meal. They did not disappoint mostly. The kimchi was too fresh/sweet and they did not have danmuji (sweet pickled radish) which goes awesome with spicy soup IMO.
The soup was excellent with the exception of using udon noodles. I got mine in the normal seafood version and my brother got it in beef. I really prefer it with a mix of beef and seafood but they would not make it that way for me.
Not my pic but it looked a bit like this. The table was literally covered with banchans. I cant imagine how 4 people fit all the food on one.
On a side note the place was packed with Koreans and the Korean pancakes were massive. Like medium to large pizza size massive. The pork, kimchi and tofu appetizer is nearly a meal for 2 all by itself but at nearly $16 it should be. Our bill was $25 for 2 massive bowls of soup, 2 drinks and the 15 all you can eat.bachans.
