    Dinner 2019

    1-10-10 chicken breast with a caper, lemon, garlic, butter dressing. Orzo rather than the planned rice after the rice cooker died. The simplest of green salads. Cooked in my 38ºC / 100ºF kitchen.
  5. To be honest, I think the OP is going to have to contact the restaurant and ask. There are so many chilli sauces in Chinese cuisine and many places make their own. Literally thousands. We could guess forever, but...haystacks and needles.

    Fruit

    Actinidia chinensis - 猕猴桃 (mí hóu táo), Chinese gooseberry and is the ancestor of the common commercial kiwifruit, Actinidia deliciosa. These ones have a red heart, giving them the Chinese name 红心猕猴桃 (hóng xīn mí hóu táo).
  7. Mea culpa. However, the OP describes his sauce as being "very red/orange"; I can't see that recipe coming out that colour. Also, he or she specifies that he or she didn't detect any Sichuan peppercorn (included in the recipe), but only chili (which is not included).
  8. Regular soy sauce with sugar in it. A Cantonese / Hong Kong thing. Again, not Sichuan.

    Lunch 2019

    Jiaozo (pork and cabbage) with a Zhengjiang vinegar and soy dip.
  10. It might be in the US. It certainly isn't in Sichuan. Kecap Manis is Indonesian.
  11. Fuchchia Dunlop's "Land of Plenty" (UK title - Sichuan Cookery) is the standard go to, but is about to be republished as "The Food of Sichuan, an updated edition ... ... fully illustrated and with lots of new recipes and information" acccording to a message she sent me last week.
  12. I agree it's good, but not Sichuanese. Not that it isn't available there, although it's from Guizhou province..

    Haven't done this for ages. Medium-boiled duck eggs with homemade flatbread. I like a bit of char!
  14. You could try this. It isn't specifically Sichuanese, but then neither is your description; it could be one of hundreds of such sauces and perhaps home made. Here is one recipe for home made garlic chili sauce.

    Dinner 2019

    Dinner with four friends in a South-East Asian restaurant here in China. The place is called Ubud after the Indonesian city and the food is a mix of SE Asian and Chinese. 东阴功鱼鲜汤 - Tom Yum Soup 招牌咖哩虾 Curried Shrimp 越式风情卷 Cantonese Spring Rolls 香茅烤鸡肉串 Grilled Lemongrass Chicken Skewers 泰式香芒牛肉粒 Thai Style Mango Beef Sweet and Sour Pork with Pineapple 阿嬷手做肉叶捞饭 Granny's Handmade Gravy Fried Rice 榄香肉松四季豆 Srit Fried Pork Floss with Green Beans 荷塘月色 "Lotus Pond at Moonlight" 广东香心 Cantonese Greens
  18. Only ever saw it in a store once, but I can easily buy it online.
  19. I never use tomato ketchup. not ever. Never had Miracle Whip, but having read about it, I've decided it's a miracle whoever invented it wasn't whipped! I usually make my own mayo, but will eat Hellman's if there is no choice.

    2019 Farmers Markets

    I'm distraught! Yesterday, I went to visit my local market as I've been doing for over 20 years, and when I got there, it wasn't! The purpose built building, to which it moved only about 10 years ago, was shuttered and deserted. A sign hung on the wall. To cut a long story short, it is telling me that in their wisdom the local authorities have decided to waste more money doing up a place that is the least in need of doing up and it will be closed for (at least) two months to allow for the work. How will I survive?
