The Mouse has been battling flu symptoms for the last couple of days. no postings, just sleeping.
Was able to make a pot of chicken feet soup for The Cat.
Chicken Feet, turnip, goji berries, aloe pulp, wakame, napa cabbage, xiao shing wine.
The Cat liked.
The Mouse is taking long naps, eating little. One benefit, he is losing a little weight, a good thing during the holiday season. Hee hee.
Stay safe and well.

The Mouse bought a smoked salmon collar from the market.
Fish collar, one of The Cat’s favorite parts of fish, the head and tail being the other parts.
The Mouse made a no-recipe “winter” soup.
Similar to previous post, butternut squash, napa cabbage, celery, wakame seaweed, and the salmon collar (if you look lower right you can see the fin).
The collar was slightly over smoked, parts of the salmon was too chewy for The Cat but tasted good and most of the fish was edible.
Stay safe ane well.

The Mouse used leftover oxtail soup as the base. Simmered the radish for about 1/2 hour, radish greens for about 7 minutes.
With pan-fried Chinese flat bread (pancake?). The Cat liked. 🙂
Stay safe and well.

The Mouse went to pick up dinner at the neighborhood take-out. He was going to order something from the menu but when he got there, the line was long. Kitchen looked a little hectic. The Mouse decided to go with one of the blackboard specials.
Mapo tofu and chicken katsu over rice and mac salad. The Mouse ordered all rice, no mac salad, but the counter and kitchen were slammed. No worries, The Mouse cheated for one day. Leftovers for The Cat’s bento.
For The Cat’s dinner, one oxtail leftover, simmered for several hours (The oxtail was slightly under simmered), half a soup spoon of rice, rehydrated bamboo shoot, shitake mushroom, and wood ear fungus. Cucumbers and frozen vegetables just before service.
Almost the kitchen sink or witch’s brew? Hee hee.
Hearty soup for cooling weather.
Stay safe and well.
