MAKING THAT TOMORROW. Holy poo poo, Amerijook is born. Because crispy bacon and smooshy rice is delicious.

Maybe some thin sliced tomato, but that's all else.

Just because you put bacon and eggs on it doesn't make it a breakfast jook. It already was breakfast jook. :ssh:

quote:

Growing up my Mom was a terrible, terrible cook. Combined with the fact that my family was barely paying the bills, each meal was either buttered noodles, mac and cheese, or the cheapest cut of pork cooked until it was burnt to "make sure it was safe." I always jumped at the chance to eat at a friend's house whenever I could. Other families used spices! Meat cooked properly! And SALADS! Holy poo poo, I remember my first salad. loving life-changing.

One day in High School I came home to find my Mom pulling a quiche out of the oven. A quiche. One of the best ones I had ever eaten in my life. Confused, I asked if Dad cooked for once.

Nope. It was Mom. Turns out she's a fantastic cook. Dad even pulled out her old '70s cookbook. It was filled with amazing, yet cheap (since they were poor hippies at the time) recipes, all written in my Mom's terrible handwriting. He told me that after Mom had her first kid she simply 'gave up' cooking since kids wouldn't know any better. After that one quiche she remarked how it was harder than she remembered and went back to noodles and overcooked pork.

That was the last and only time I tasted my Mom's cooking.

Me: I went to the Asian Market Saturday.

Her: Oh really? What did you buy?

Me: Galangal, coconut buns and Lao Gan Ma.

Her: Oh I love lao gan ma, what did you buy it for.

Me: To try in congee.

Her: In congee?? What the hell, gross. How do you even know about lao gan ma.

Me: The internet.

*shrug* she's from Northern China and says congee isn't quite like the pictures I showed her from the thread. My other coworker said it was delicious in congee.

Congee is typically a bowl of slop with poo poo mixed in. People are topping things all fancy and giving it the Instagram treatment but usually its a pretty humble dish.

the most confusing part is why someone would be surprised that you'd heard of chili oil - which is a pretty loving basic chinese/cantonese condiment - and not surprised that you had heard of congee.

Because you're white and she'd be right to assume you didn't know about lao gan ma 99% of the time

The city I live in is like half immigrants. A somewhat disproportionate amount of whom work in healthcare (with me). And healthcare staff have a lot of potlucks. So I get exposed to a lot of Filipino and eastern euro dishes. It's not the dish that surprised her, but a seemingly obscure condiment I knew the actual name for.

My brain is addled. It's 3am and I took double my normal muscle relaxants and an Advil cold and flu, and I'm still loving awake.

I don't think it's that she's suprised she knows what chili oil is, I think she's surprised that she knew what Lao Gan Ma is by name.

I was feeling like poo poo, and then I saw this thread and had a bunch of warm fuzzy memories of too-loving-early breakfasts. And then I looked in the pantry and realized I only had maybe a half cup of rice so that pretty much sealed the deal. :V



Shredded rotisserie chicken, lap cheong, shiitake mushrooms, diced dried prawns, kale (in a moment of anguish, realizing I had no other greens), hard-boiled egg in a jook that contained chicken broth and part whatever soaking liquid I had from the mushrooms and the prawns.

Doesn't taste at all traditional, but it's goddamn delicious all the same.
