Made some burritos with adobo tempeh, guac, cilantro rice, fajita veggies, and some black beans today. Apparently I am very bad at figuring out how much I am making so I now what I think will last me over a week. :yum:

we used to trawl the creek with a big net for crawdads

edit: does crayfish refer to saltwater or freshwater species where you are?

freshwater

the story is they were rare in china until the american military started airdropping them into fields to try to disrupt local agriculture, decades ago, but chinese people just started eating them. i have no idea if that’s accurate but several different people here have told me the same story

parachuting crawfish into rice paddies sounds a wee bit suspicious to put it mildly, but they were introduced during WWII

really simple to fry up, you can also buy prepackaged versions of it at any asian market almost. i think those come in stacks of 5

here's a recipe if you're interested in making it yourself! (you can add msg if you really want to :twisted:)

huh yeah, so they are american crayfish and we’re introduced by japan during the war? i never really thought the american airdropping thing made sense but i can see how that story evolved i guess

and this video doesn’t really get into it but i also could see japan trying to introduce an invasive species with the intent of disrupting agriculture during the war

muthafuckin TURKEY BULGOGI NIGHT (i don't eat beef any more really)



* 1 lb ground turkey
* 8 oz shiitake
* 1 cup or so shredded carrots
* bean sprouts (as much or little as you like*

saucy stuff:

* soy
* garlic
* ginger
* gochujang
* gochugaru
* white or brown sugar
* shaoxing or mirin


mix up the sauce. I'm not going to give proportions because everybody's different. i go ginger heavy. Make a half cup to a cup or so.

Now pour half over the ground turkey in a container and mix well. let it percolate in the fridge for a half hour or so.

start the rice cooker here

Heat up a pan, doesnt loving matter. whatever. Dump in the turkey and cook until it is done, then a couple minutes more to evap most of the liquid. Pull turkey

Now throw in carrots and mushrooms. splash of oil. saute for about five minutes or so until the carrots are soft and sweet and the mushrooms are getting happy.

Add the meat back in, stir, pour in other half of the sauce. Cook while stirring for a few minutes.

Throw in bean sprouts, kill the heat, mix and serve over calrose with scallion on top.

May not be authentic but it's loving delicious.

i wouldn’t say it’s fake exactly but 99% of the time it serves only to restrict food from people unnecessarily

honestly it’s one of my biggest pet peeves in modern food culture

it's fake in that most of the people who talk about what is "authentic" has no business determining authenticity. when people with some standing talk about the same kind of thing they use phrases like "at my house we always..." instead.

well, i feel pretty comfortable in saying the "cantonese vegetables" at the local chinese restaurant in my hometown in maine are Not Authentic. as in, theyre completely unlike any way ive ever seen vegetables prepared in Canton, which is where ive lived for over a decade now. i also feel pretty confident in saying the lukewarm canned tuna and carrots rolled in plain white rice and nori i had, also in maine, is not authentic sushi. and neither is the spaghetti and meatballs i had in a cafe in china which used literal ketchup as the tomato sauce. i know spaghetti and meatballs isn't necessarily an authentic italian dish, but what they served me in that cafe in china isn't authentic to whatever spaghetti and meatballs really are. i could go on but you get the point.

inauthentic doesn't mean bad either. american sushi is seldom very authentic, but a lot of it is still good in its own way.

no its not. the cantonese vegetables i mentioned were totally fine, there wasnt anything wrong with them, and if they were called something else i wouldnt have a complaint really. the other two i mentioned were bad but thats not why they were inauthentic representations of the dish they were trying to be.
