Pig Foot Soup Update

Season being summer, The Mouse didn’t want to make a “heavy” soup/broth. Used only half of the pork foot (froze the other half). Didn’t think the broth would jell. But it did! Yay!

Sorry picture not too appetizing, in real life, exciting. Hee.

Consistency is not “glue your lips together” sticky, just a light sticky. Hee hee.

Remember this bottle?

Bluegrass Soy Sauce

From the food enthusiast co-worker. Finally found something to try it on.

Avocado!

The soy sauce (shoyu in SPAM Land) has a softer taste, not as much fermented/umami taste, different but good. At least on The Mouse’s tongue. Mahalo Keawe!

Pahole (Warabi) and Tomato Salad

Tossed with just Kaua‘i salt.

That’s it for now. 🙂

Enjoy. Eat well.

Back to “Real” World

Holiday over. Too hot. Lazy.

Breakfast

Portuguese sausage, eggs, rice. The rice saved for The Cat’s bento. As a bonus, came with a drink.

Green River

Dinner/lunch was take-out from Panda Express. Eggplant and tofu (The Cat’s bento today), grilled chicken (The Mouse’s bento today), green beans with chicken, and steamed vegetables (last night’s dinner) Used one of their “survey rewards” for a discount. Not bad, three meals for a total under 10 bucks.

Looks like it’s gonna be a hot summer. Ugh.

Enjoy. Eat well.

Weekend Buys

Picked up over the past weekend.

Dragonfruit

You’ve seen these before.

“Canned” Mango

“Gift” by Chef Hardy. In heavy syrup, The Cat says “yum”. Still not quite sure what the dark thing is though. Have to take a bite/lick later.

Canned Mango on Dragonfruit Peel

For color, hee hee.

Can of Snails

From Chef Zone. Thought I’d try making escargot at home (since The Cat likes it). Online recipes look easy enough, but then, The Mouse “chickened”. Think I’ll have a quick consult with Chef H before attempting.

Happy 4th (if you are so inclined), if not, happy day.

Enjoy. Eat well.
