Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Miso soup

    • LifeofPie on October 09, 2022

      I made a few alterations based on what I had on hand. Dried shitakes for fresh and water chestnuts for the bamboo shoots. Overall this was a quick recipe to put together but it fell a little flat for me in terms of texture and flavor. After tasting it in the bowl I added a little soy sauce and some Momofuku Spicy Salt. I don't think I'd make it again, but it did use up that leftover tofu in the fridge.

  • Sesame-orange beef

      Couldn't stop eating it! Served over lol me in noodles. Did not need both oranges and pineapple. Next time replace with mandarin oranges!

  • Quick char siu

    • ndbrian on January 25, 2016

      This was excellent and so easy. I used ground ginger rather than fresh because I didn't have it...marinated it for a bit longer (about 3 hours) because I had the time. It was excellent.

  • Soybean fried rice

    • PennyG on January 07, 2013

      Meh ... I was excited to try this recipe because I really love edamame, but I just didn't like it. It was too "sweet" for my taste, I think from the oyster sauce. I prefer my fried rice flavored with soy sauce - more salty than sweet.
