I don't speak Chinese but I have been told this is called 熊掌豆腐, aka bear's paw tofu.

They might have been less gummy if you had cooked them. Those are uncooked.

Masoor Dal is delicious, did you follow a specific recipe?

Nope. Just cooked up some dal, fried up some spices, then some onions, ginger, and garlic, and mixed it all together with some spinach.

Haha wow things are pretty spicy in here. Anyways I routinely put whole Sichuan peppercorns into all sorts of poo poo. I made kung pao oyster mushrooms the other day and put a bunch of whole peppercorns in there. Great stuff.

Seems like a nice dish and I would like to subscribe to your tasting menu newsletter. That seems like it would go good with some sort of lemony component.

Yeah, I'm considering two big changes right now - crush the peas, with some chive, mint, lemon, maybe a hint of fresh chilli; and altering the puree to have a beetroot base as well (should fit in well with the earthy flavours, and look just astounding).
Edit: Maybe a shift to pine in the salt as well could help get that citrus note in as well and kind of stick to the earthy theme... decisions, decisions!

Hey why not just go loving all out and crush and then spherify the peas? Unmake nature and then remake it to your own specifications. :orb:

Good stuff. A good amchur replacement is lemon juice. Squeeze it over at the end, right before serving. The recipe writer appears to have confused aloo matar with dum aloo but whatever.

I feel bad about my lovely pictures but I don't feel bad about my food! Straight from the potato thread it's aloo bhindi aka potatoes plus okra. Can't recommend it enough if you've got some okra.

That tofu looks great. Is that a whole rear end cherry tomato on the sandwich, or just cut side down?

I basically only eat dinner, and I eat late when the sun is down, and all I really have is my phone with a half busted camera, and I can't really be bothered to white balance anything (is there any photo app for an iPhone... 5 I think, or maybe 4 which works better than the default?) so I feel bad about all my lovely pictures. But at least my food is good:

Aloo methi, aka potatoes with fenugreek leaves. Absolutely delicious.

Hey, if you're interested in improving your food photography, try plating in something other than a dog food bowl.

In India (which is where I live), food is often served in these vessels. In any case, even if I wanted something different (I don't - I like the bowl!) the whole country is locked down right now, which means I haven't been able to fill out my extremely under-stocked kitchen (which wasn't being used before lockdown). I've been rolling out my roti with a bottle of gin for the rolling pin and a plate for the rolling surface. I have no tawa to cook them so I have to use a pan with high sides, which is inconvenient. I have no spice grinder and no mixi or blender which means I can't make a lot of foods. Sometimes I put spices in a small bowl and smash them with the bottom of my knife handle, but it feels dangerous. I have one spoon and one fork that are not rusty. So, things are a little challenging in some ways.

Oof. That look awesome and we have tofu in the house for the first time ever but I think I want to start on something simple.

I'm using quarantine as an excuse to cut back on meat a little more but I'm not sure exactly what to do with the tofu. Thought about pad Thai but peanuts are right out because our little one has an allergy.

I love tofu! Some of my favorite recipes: bear's paw tofu, home style tofu (alternate recipe), breakfast tofu, salt and pepper tofu, steamed tofu spicy or not or spicy with mushrooms, tofu with black bean sauce (alternate recipe, another alternate), scrambled tofu, tofu soup with dipping sauce, braised tofu with mushrooms (alternate recipe), tofu salad (alternate recipe), fish fragrant tofu, ma po tofu (alternate recipe), kung pao tofu, teriyaki tofu, General Tso's tofu, tofu with avocado, hot and sour tofu... that's just a few. There are so many more!

Yeah, I just say lime and leave it at that. If a place sells them, they know what I'm looking for anyways so there is no need to get into specifics.

I think the generally accepted alternate term is makrut lime. "Makrut" is also what they're generally called in Thailand so that's nice.
