Nothing, but I want tacos. Fake, American tacos with crunchy Old El Paso shells, because that's what I grew up with.

What Dreams May Come

 

[The Cat]

Ingredients:

• 200g Beef Loin (Thinly Sliced)
• ½ Cup or 120ml Soy Sauce
• ½ Cup or 120ml Mirin
• ½ Cup or 120ml Water
• 2 ½ tsp of sugar
• Shirataki Noodles (one pack)
• Block of Tofu
• ½ Green Onion
• 2-3 Shiitake Mushrooms (or any mushrooms of your choice!)
• Few handfuls of Enoki Mushrooms
• Head of Nappa Chinese Cabbage

How to make:

• First make your Warishita or Sukiyaki Broth - mix the soy sauce, mirin, water, and sugar together and give it a mix. Done!
• Next drain the Shirataki noodles from the liquid they come in, parboil for 1 minute and then drain again. (this will make your noodles easier to eat)
• Drain your Tofu, and cut it into bite-sized chunks
• Cut up ½ Green Onion into 1cm slices
• Cut the stems off your Shiitake Mushrooms and add a flower pattern if you’re feeling fancy!
• Break up Enoki mushrooms into handfuls
• Cut your Nappa Cabbage into bite size chunks, and separate the green leafy parts from the white root
• Heat a frying pan to medium heat and add olive oil. Add your thin cuts of beef loin
• Next add your Tofu and be careful not to overcook your beef! Once it’s browned move it to the side of the pan
• Now add the warishita broth from before
• Add your mushrooms, white parts of cabbage and shirataki noodles
• Put a lid on the frying pan and let simmer for a few minutes
• Finally add the green parts of the cabbage - simmer for a minute or two and you’re ready to eat!

In Japan we also use a raw egg to dip the sukiyaki into but be careful because not all countries have eggs that are safe to eat raw!

The best kind of leftover sandwich.

Yesterday, I tried a slider from Dave's Hot Chicken. For uninitiated, they have a range of heat levels:

Now, I LOVE spicy food. A little pain never put me off, unless it completely kills my ability to taste anything. That's usually my limit. I got the Hot and broke a sweat by the end, but it was the perfect amount of heat. Surprisingly today, my tongue and esophagus feel like they have a sunburn.

I wonder how anyone can consume The Reaper, if "Hot" leaves you like this

It was delicious (and horribly unhealthy), don't get me wrong. I think you have to truly hate yourself to go hotter, though.

I think you have to truly hate yourself to go hotter, though.

Don't threaten me with a good time.

Spicy food is the most healthy form of masochistic self loathing. And so tasty too.

Cram-it-all-in Veggie Sandwich with Avocado Ranch Dressing Recipe

This Cram-It-All-In Veggie Sandwich is fantastic with sprouts, but the Avocado Ranch Dressing is the star of the show - you'll crave it daily!

But I prefer these sandwiches on a toasted everything bagel. Stands up to veg filling better.
