Breakfast 2026

[liuzhou]

It’s very nearly midnight here in China and so almost 2026! I’m ensconced in the kitchen, preparing breakfast for sometime later. I’m making 皮蛋I瘦肉粥 (pí dàn shòu ròu zhōu), Century Egg and Lean Pork Congee, which I like to cook for around eight hours in my slow cooker, so I have to start now, before the celebrations begin. I'll post the result tomorrow when I wake up, though that will be late.

 

新年快乐！

 

Welcome to 2026 and congratulations on making it through 2025!

I woke up earlier that expected, mainly because I was hungry, I think. Luckily the congee was ready so I chopped some century egg and fried some lean pork mince, added it to the congee and let it warm up. 

 

 

Did the job. Now going back to sleep!

Leftover smashed potatoes and mustard greens with sauteed sausage, shallot, garlic, and Fresno chile. Seasoned with cumin, ancho chile powder, and Mexican oregano, then crambled in an egg and Feta at the end.

Pancakes and bacon this morning.  And a bucket of ice coffee.  Not pictured, partners eggs.

(Mine with unmelted butter.  His with peanut butter and real syrup). Not a dirty lens- steam off pancakes.
