Made some soup the other day for dinner, won-tons were pork and shrimp and cabbage filled , various spices/sauces in the meat mix such as dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, fermented bean paste and a couple other things which was cured in the fridge for 24hrs, homemade lemongrass/chicken broth.

Yum.

Just yum.

That second image is absolutely mouth-watering......I'm salivating just looking at it.

Do enjoy.

My younger daughter's favorite "food group" has always been ham.

I'm cooking Penzeys Glazed Baked Ham recipe, using their top notch spices of course.

Even better, my daughter requested serving our homemade kimchi as a side dish.
Good quality ham is excellent.

I was served a delicious baked ham (with a divine apple-horseradish sauce), brioche, eggs, sausage, juice and coffee for breakfast this morning, a specialty that celebrates the feats of Easter Sunday in parts of central Europe.
 
Pörkölt is a Hungarian beef and onion stew; saw a thumbnail on EweTube and it looked pretty tasty. Reading thru the recipe I thought, "Hey, this is just goulash," and I did some digging. That Shining Beacon of Wisdom, Siri, tells me Pörkölt is a stew concentrating on the meat, while Goulash is more of a soup. But the Hungarian restaurant I liked in Dayton OH the goulash was definitely a stew, and a few EweTubers claim the opposite, also. Guess it's just like american chili, is it a soup or a stew? Depends on who's making it! (it also occurred to me, american chili at it's most basic is beef, grease, salt and chile peppers; pörkölt/goulash is the same (paprika (a full 1/4 cup in this recipe) is a ground chile).

Yes looks good, can't go wrong with beef and onions. It looks like one of my many goat or mutton stews/gravies/curries I made over the last three years or so. I guess what I meant to say was there are so many similar variations of this type of dish. All good.

Hungarians will insist that Pörkölt is a stew, while they stress that goulash (gulyas) is a soup; granted, the ingredients found in both are quite similar.
 
As I found myself craving some tasty noodles, I have just treated myself to a delicious dish of Mee Goreng noodles at my favourite Asian spot. Divine.

Will admit that I was also eyeing the Hokkein Mee on the menu, but I was persuaded to try the Mee Goreng this evening.

Rømmegrøt. With lots of cinnamon and sugar on top. Dinner and dessert in one. 🙂

Mrs. M also prefers to have fenalår with it, but it might've been some similar cured meat she'd found today... edit: She'd actually found fenalår today, too, only a bit lighter in colour than usual (or much thinner cuts, maybe). 🙂

Fresh basil pesto, fresh wild garlic pesto, fresh sun-dried tomatoes pesto, a selection of olives, fresh (small, delicious and divine) plum San Marzano tomatoes, fresh French baguette, a selection of cheeses, comprised dinner and will also comprise dinner today.
 
I just made a black bean dip and it turned out great. Black beans, onions, cumin, salt, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeños, garlic. I had leftover black beans from a different recipe and wasn't sure what to do with them, but this was proof that my new blender is not just for smoothies and açai bowls (though I've been having a lot of fun making those too).
 
Grilled a spatchcocked Hmong Chicken yesterday. The pepper sauce is the star of this recipe:
1 cup cilantro, chopped
Juice from 1.5 limes (2 Tbs)
2 Tbs fish sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 Fresno chile, finely minced (market only had ripe jalapenos, so I used that)
This sauce is a keeper!
