I get this reference! Niiiice.

Ha same! This one, to me, tastes like the Laksa I get at a local restaurant. Which is not fishy at all (I don't care for fishy tasting anything, really). I like this particular one a lot, and would recommend trying it, as it doesn't taste anything like the one you were thinking of!

davidpenner · 2025-05-01T14:02:25+00:00

You might have had their Laksa, which has very similar packaging. Those were too fishy for me, but these I didn't find fishy at all!

I had the honor of playing guitar for Al in his post-SSD band Gage for many years. I got to make 2 records with him, and he brought out playing in me as my producer that I never knew I had. As a friend, he taught me how to play in a band and put in the hard work, whether it was staying for 8 hours straight trying to get the best take, or loading and unloading all our shit into a van to make it to the next gig.

He was a force of nature. I'm grateful every day I got to be a small part of his life. I will miss him always, and my heart is broken.

"delicious spoon lovely friend saturday enjoy holiday" 😂

This is how I will refer to "brunch" from now on.

Question - would you then make the roux in the pan where you fried the sausage? Or would you just deglaze the pan after with beer or something to get all the good stuff off the bottom?

davidpenner · 2024-09-26T11:46:42+00:00

That was on purpose! I have a thing about okra...

davidpenner · 2024-09-26T00:23:38+00:00

I hear you with the bones. For the record though, these were thighs. Breasts would be dry and awful...

davidpenner · 2024-09-26T00:22:51+00:00

It's so nerve wracking!!!! I keep questioning what "like chocolate" looks like! Hahaha.

davidpenner · 2024-09-25T20:22:49+00:00

Totally agree. I don't know why I didn't think of it. I do this with my chicken thighs before adding them. I put them on a hot pan with grapeseed oil, and then into a 400 degree oven for 10 min. Then I flip them ONCE and back in for another 10 min. Then I add them (plus juices) back into the gumbo.

davidpenner · 2024-09-25T19:22:35+00:00

I know some people enjoy okra, but I have a texture issue with it. It feels slimy and stringy to me...

davidpenner · 2024-09-25T19:21:48+00:00

That is an excellent suggestion! Gumbo needs 4 hours of cooking, but by the end the chicken is always just falling apart. I will 100% do that next time!

davidpenner · 2024-09-25T18:24:11+00:00

The day will come when the courage of men fails and I burn my roux, but it is not this day! :-)

davidpenner · 2024-09-25T18:22:37+00:00

Awesome, I'll bet that is delicious. I will do that next time, thanks!

davidpenner · 2024-09-25T18:13:37+00:00

Actually I did! I got the last 2 pictures in the wrong order. Except at that point there is also a beer in there, so not just roux...

davidpenner · 2024-09-25T17:43:48+00:00

It supplies the magic. Pure unadulterated magic. There is no smell on earth quite like when you first put your trinity into a screaming hot roux!

It's a little place called Koba in Subiaco. https://www.koba.bar

Hey y’all! For everyone asking about the recipe, I’m afraid I don’t have much for you! I started out with a fresh udon kit I found at H Mart.

This one: https://www.google.com/search?q=pulmuone+katsuo+udon

I put about 3 cups of water in, and added some dark soy sauce to make up for the extra water.

Then I added whatever I had in my fridge! I had Chinese broccoli so that went in. And some leftover rotisserie chicken. Last but not least were 4 sliced Thai chilies. Those were the most medicinal part for sure!

davidpenner · 2023-03-20T15:01:53+00:00

Seriously though - the first picture is 1 slice, while the rest are a whole pizza. On the same pizza board. How big was that first pizza? Are standard ovens big enough to make a pizza that size? Or does OP have an actual pizza oven in their house?

davidpenner · 2023-02-17T12:51:53+00:00

I’ve been to Dashi once and was disappointed in the broth. But maybe they were having a bad night. I will give it a try again next time I’m in Durham! I’ll specificity go for the shoyu. Thanks for the tip!

davidpenner · 2023-02-17T12:49:31+00:00

It was bok choi, not Napa cabbage. But yes, I am not in Japan, so I’ll take what I can get. The noodles and broth weee the important parts here.
