Bean Curd and Watercress Salad

Wednesday, June 1, 2011

I know it has been a long time since I’ve blogged! And, NO little cousin Jeffrey, the blog is not dead. Give me some time! Caya is just under 15 weeks old and she does not like to nap. She takes up all my time all day long!

My mom made this Bean Curd and Watercress Salad all the way back in April for Sophia’s (my brother’s girlfriend) birthday. I loved it and it’s been on my mind since. The watercress has a squishy crunch to it. The bean curd is tender but firm. Together, the alternating texture and flavor is addictive and so cooling on a hot summer day.

Pork, Bean Curd, and Yellow Chives

Tuesday, May 19, 2009

I love Yellow Chives but I only find them at Asian supermarkets. They are the same plant as garlic chives, only grown without direct sunlight, which prevents them from turning green. Garlic chives and yellow chives are more pungent than American chives with a distinct garlicky flavor. They have flat (not hollow) leaves, and are used as a vegetable in Chinese cooking as opposed to the sprinkling use of herbs. It seems that some people love them and some people find them too stinky (in a garlicky way).
