I am fine today.
I cooked successfully a delicious dish called stir-fried tofu with roasted pork in shrimp paste (吓酱烧肉豆腐). Since we didn’t keep any shrimp paste as we seldom use it, my wife suggested replacing it with fish sauce (鱼露). And it did turn out to be a brilliant suggestion :-)
This dish is very easy to prepare. If you are interested to give it a try, let me know, I will scan and email you the recipe :-)
A photo of the dish. Perhaps I should replace the "shrimp paste" with "fish sauce"
A zoom in view
The recipe is from this book which we purhased from Popular Bookshop last night.
Another dish we have today is red wine residuum pork (红酒糟猪肉), a Foochow delicacy. It was prepared by the maid under my wife’s instruction.
The red wine residuum is a residue of Foochow red wine making. It is a very excellent ingredient for preparing many tasty dishes.
A church member shared with me some red wine residuum sometimes ago. We have been using this precious ingredient to cook duck, chicken and pork since then :-)
Does the redness hampered your appetite? But I tell you, a Foochow will normally drool over (流口水)the dish :-)
A closer view
See you next post :-)
