Herb Tip |
Never trust a dog to watch your food. |
| Patrick age 10 Advice from Kids |
"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?" |

2 Tbs. light soy sauce 1 Tbs. cider vinegar 1 Tbs. freshly minced
garlic x several splashes to 1 tsp. Tabasco sauce (no, really, it
works!) 1 Tbs. black bean sauce 1/4 tsp. fresh ground pepper
Peel the cucumber, slice it down the middle and remove the seeds. Cut
each half down the middle and slice these strips into bite sized
pieces.
Toss cucumbers and mung bean sprouts into a large sealable container.
Mix the dressing separately and pour over the veggies. Put the lid on
the container and shake it. Put it in the fridge to marinate for 3
hours or over night, shaking it whenever you think of it.
:)
Just before serving add the pea greens and peeled, chopped
waterchestnuts and shake the whole thing together again.
