saal-e no mobarak
happy new year. in between seemingly endless rainstorms and even more seemingly endless home improvement projects, i’ve kept up with the cooking:
lemongrass egg flower soup
siu mai
spicy okra in shrimp sauce
beer-battered ahi rolls
soft tofu and mushrooms in black vinegar sauce
chow fun chicken
i’m too exhausted from painting and moving and measuring and hammering to write about my pizza and champagne new year, or my crash course in japanese pantry essentials, or anything for that matter. its suffice to say that the past few days have been a real workout.
