We Don't Eat Jook?
Some silly person got to my site by Googling, "Asian Americans don't eat jook."WHAAAAAT?
I was just hankering a big steaming bowl of House Special Jook from Buddha Bodai in Manhattan Chinatown. Since it's hard eating that from Philadelphia, i was wondering if be would eat a bowl or two if i made a pot of jook. You can get the yu ja gue (super deep fried giant bread sticks) in frozen form from Chinese markets; throw in some cilantro, fake ham, pickled mustard greens, peanuts, hot oil, whatever and EAT UP.
Unfortunately, we're in the middle of summer so i don't want to use the stove/oven for anything but kettle corn, so a pot of rice simmering for hours is out of the question. So poo on that weird jook-hater.
PS: I just found out that we prematurely snipped three of our giant Thai Dragon peppers! You're supposed to wait until they turn bright red, but we snipped them when they were light green and about 3.5" long. I sure hope the plant produces enough red peppers for my crushed chile experiments later this summer!
