    Hummus-style split peas with sesame paste, peanuts, a touch of soy sauce. Century egg. Quick pickled ginger, sesame oil, garlic-chili water, black vinegar, scallions. With pita bread. We had the leftover the next day with Lao Gan Ma instead of sesame oil - also good.

    Odon in a seasame-miso sauce (also ginger, garlic, soy sauce, chili, sesame oil). Shrimps, soy beans, roasted sweet potato. It is soupier than it seems, the sauce-broth all pooled at the bottom.

    There's a practice among campers etc in Israel, where you take a can of tuna packed in oil, and set it aflame, resulting in smoked and warm tuna. Random fact 🙃

    Yes, she shapes them into domes. All of the products in this market were meticulously presented.

    Chiang Mai produce market. If I were to live in Chiang Mai, I think I would just spend my entire day in this market. The pineapples! And delicious drinks everywhere. This time a green tea slushy. Any idea what this is? Mushroom vendor. This place is massive.

    Rocket soup ideas

    shain replied to a topic in Cooking

    You can add it as a last minute addition into many soups, just long enough to wilt. I usually do the same with spinach.

    Hotpot for dinner. Thai milk tea with boba, winter melon juice, and later a Taiwanese style milk tea.

    Mark Wiens have a new video from the Yunannease market in Chiang Mai, pictured a couple of pages ago. I wish we had the stomach capacity and dedication to try all of the dishes as well.

    @Shelby I'm delighted to hear that! Thanks for sharing. An untoasted bread is indeed the more common side, better for soaking the sauce. But adding sausages into the shakshuka is actually quite common - most often merguez.

    We've been there for two weeks. Left with a taste for more. Thai cuisine is one of few foreign cuisines that get decent representation in our local culinary scene, but dishes still have to adapt to ingredients unavailability and customer expectations. The Thai restaurants here also tend to represent more from the South of the country. And on top of this, I learned quite a bit over the years online. That's a prelude to say that we learnt quite a bit of northern Thai tastes, and it's valuable to see dishes made at their source, doubly so when you get to see them made by different cooks. A few things that I recall noting down are the use of dill in northern cooking, the variety of soups I wasn't familiar with, lots of interesting dessert and sweets ideas, the influence-of/similarities-to Chinese cuisine in many dishes, the vivid flavors of fresh herbs and roots I only had dry or frozen (this helps me work better with what I have on hand).

    Stumbled upon a fun online tool for AI generated art. You choose a subject and style, and it generates a picture. So obviously I made some food art. Some art styles seem to fare better than others, with others having a tendency to form literal candy houses and ice cream mountains. Other styles produce what seems like a canvas-full of lasanga that crashed on the floor... But it's all quite cool. Guess what's pictured?

    Dry. They are actually quite common here, more so than the similar mung bean noodles.
