Got rum and Cognac. So made a variant of "Between the sheets". Didn't add the orange liqueur, gonna add some more sugar and blue cheese next time. Recipe here

@Alamantus @Louisa @Sissas Indeed, know you are always welcome, federated or local ​

Tried my had at fried chicken, came on ok but not foodgasmic, and the batter didn't stick well. Used a mix I found in east Jerusalem before covid. The mix itself is good, should get more and try again

As promised, morning glory! Apparently changing the fertilizer in my hydroponics improved all leaves flavor. Also the Basil. It's kinda amazing to have that kind of control and measure it over two weeks. (Sep 2 2020)

Coming up this week (Aug 30 2020) - morning glory! Lots of water spinach harvested from hydroponics.

So used the Zhug from last post, and some fermented bean chili's paste, with ground beef and soft tofu to make mapo tofu. Also added cabbage and broccoli to puff it up a bit instead of rice

Zhug hot sauce! We had lots of chills, so made it.

We made steak with potatoes and salad the other day (Aug 22ndd 2020)

Morning Glory grown in my hydroponics. Its an invasive species here so hydro is a good way to make sure it stays out.

Morning Glory is basically water spinach with rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, soy source and a little water stir-fried for about 1-2 minutes.
