From the book I’m reading;

“The only color in her face was her nose, red with a summer cold. She found a tissue and blew the way children do, one side, then the other.”

Isn’t that the way adults do it too?

I put the flour, yeast, and buttermilk mix in a small bowl to ferment for an hour, as directed. Next time I’m going to use a bigger bowl.

I had a couple of mishaps trying to flip the pancakes but I eventually got the hang of it.

I tried the Golden Diner Pancake recipe from NYT Cooking. The pancakes came out nice and fluffy. I didn’t make all the add-ons but they were tasty with maple syrup. I added a few peach slices and that was good too.

One issue came up when my understanding of “small” didn’t match NYT’s.

Crispy Brussels Sprouts with Hot Honey. The title tells it all. They were almost gone before I remembered to take a picture. Definitely a keeper. And so easy.

Mock Unagi Bowl

Thin strips of eggplant browned on both sides then simmered in unagi sauce. Served over rice.

It isn’t close to being unagi it’s a great eggplant dish.

A friend sent a Food&Wine recipe for Banh Mi Smash Burgers. She used ground turkey instead of pork.

I used Impossible sausage, spread filling on dumpling wrappers, then pan fried. Used recipe’s spicy mayo & my pickled veggies. Folded the wrappers into tiny tacos.

It was delicious. A keeper.

I’ve been experimenting making something similar to the viral, tasty Dubai Chocolate bar. It took time to source the pistachio crème, the kataifi (for the crunch) and a small mold (1.5”x3”).

I’m happy w/ the first, though I want to work on perfecting the chocolate so it’s shinier and has a snap.

Then I enjoyed a pleasant 40 minute walk home with a stop at Bob’s Donuts for some treats for breakfast tomorrow and a stop at Les Croissant for a Banh Mi sandwich for lunch. And a Vietnamese Iced Coffee, one of my guilty pleasures.

I had to visit the DMV today to renew my Real Id. I’m old so I had to go in person. Like my experience w/ cataract surgery, the anticipation anxiety was much worse than the actual visit. Arrived at 9:30 for a 9:40 appt. My number was called at 9:41 and 10 minutes later I was out the door.

Chile-Crisp Chickpea Rice Bowl. Recipe from NYT Cooking. I like all the ingredients but wasn’t sure I was going to like them together. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. I will make it again. And again.

I made this pull-apart samosa dish today. I love the dough and the filling though I don’t think it was very pull-apartable. I also thought there was too much bread or not enough filling. I will make it again but make individual samosas and air fry them.

Recipe in the comments.

I think they’d be good in a sweet version too, with a bit of sugar and grated apple or blueberries.

I tried a recipe for Spicey Instant Rava Paniyaram from cookclickndevour. Made with semolina, yogurt, chilis, onion, carrot, and ginger. They were easy to make and quite tasty. I would add more veggies.

I grew to like him in the later episodes.

SueB @suebunyan.bsky.social · May 30

Then over time I grew to like him and I was sad to see him go this week. I couldn’t pick someone else to go because I like them all. But, I am now rooting for Shuai or Tristen.
