“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?” |

Herb Tip |
Shell and de-vein the shrimp. Butterfly shrimp by slicing them down
the length of the back, stopping just above the tail. Rinse with cold
water and blot dry.
Cover the black beans with lukewarm water; let soak for 5 minutes.
Drain. Combine with the minced garlic and ginger; gently crush into a
paste. Mix in the wine; set aside.
Place a wok over medium-high heat. When hot, drizzle in half of the
oil. Add the shrimp and stir-fry until they begin to curl and turn
bright orange, about 1 minute. Remove to a dish and keep warm.
Reheat wok over medium heat; add remaining tablespoon of oil and the
salt. Add the black bean paste and saute a few seconds until it
becomes aromatic. Increase heat to medium-high. Add the pork and
stir-fry until the morsels are no longer pink, about 3 minutes.
Add onions, peppers, sugar, white pepper and soy sauce; toss together
until the vegetables begin to soften, about 1 minute. Add the stock
and keep tossing until it comes to a boil.
Stir the cornstarch mixture to recombine, then drizzle into the
center of the work, stirring constantly, until mixture thick- ens,
about 20 seconds.
Turn off the heat and slowly stir in the beaten egg to combine the
mixture into a creamy sauce. return the shrimp to sauce, add the
green onions and swirl in the sesame oil.
