This was a recipe originally post on December 10th in 2008. Can you believe 2008? My initial motivation for the update and re-post was in order to re-do the photos. I’m embarrassed how bad some of the photos from the earlier days were. As soon as I finished re-shooting these photos, I sat down on [...]

Chinese American Potato Salad
Tuesday, June 22, 2010
Finally! We moved, but it’s not all smooth sailing yet. We’re living out of boxes and we don’t have a kitchen yet. While our perfect kitchen is being built (which we will be talking about soon), I’m going to have to get crafty. I do have many plug-in appliances (rice cooker, toaster oven, panini press, [...]

Parsnip Gnocchi with Braised Oxtail
Tuesday, February 23, 2010
I’m quite fond of fatty meats and root vegetables together. It’s possible that both being winter foods, it becomes a familiar combination. But I’m convinced that it’s more than that. Parsnips, carrots, yams, sweet potato, and more are storage organs for the plant and typically contain more sugars and starches than other vegetables. It just [...]
Fancy Crab Fried Rice
Tuesday, January 5, 2010
There are so many versions of fried rice. I’m not even going to try and guess how many there are. Yet, what makes it a fried rice? My mom once told me that the very basic Chinese version is just scallion, egg, and rice. That’s all you need for fried rice and any other additions [...]
ABC Scrambled Eggs
Sunday, January 3, 2010
When I was in Taiwan (a long long time ago), I’d start speaking to a vendor, and they’d immediately say, “ABC”, nod, and go on with their answer to whatever my question was. It was a little odd that everyone wanted to clearly acknowledge and label me as an American Born Chinese. It was obvious [...]
Lamb Sauce
Thursday, December 10, 2009
When you’re introduced to new people, do you start chattering immediately, or does it take you time to warm-up and get comfortable? It always surprises me when Lon starts talking to random people outside, a guy waiting on line in front of us, the check-out clerk at Bed Bath & Beyond, or the couple standing [...]
Chicken or Turkey Pasta Salad
Friday, November 27, 2009
One of my go-to recipes is a Chicken & Cucumber Pasta Salad that I posted way-way back. I’ve tweaked it and played with it many times, and you can too, though the reason I thought to post it now, is because it’s a great way to use up left-over Thanksgiving Turkey. The Asian flavors make [...]
