sixtyseven failures


crispy simple sourdough crackers
to eat with the rest of my pate


hazelnut sesame laoganma chili brittle adapted from here


doesn't-look-it-but-very-failed lady fingers




strawberry chamomile cocktail with bubbles in the middle of my giant mess of powdered sugar

Friday fire pit feast was a mini congee bar. That was cold by the time Joyce and Emily arrived because I jumped the gun in prep as I always do. What can I say - I get excited.

miso + roasted sesame congee
chashu salmon
perilla leaves
seared cured oyster mushrooms
leaves in jalepeno pickle juice
ginger scallion oil
cilantro
Joyce's kimchee
two kinds of chili oil
jiang dou fu from Emily

pc: Joyce

Joyce's strawberry rhubarb buckwheat galette and a not-so-dreamy Thai tea tiramisu for dessert.
So apparently ladyfingers are made with whole eggs and not just whites as I assumed. I disregarded this and went ahead with the egg whites only but failed to adjust the flour accordingly. Rookie mistake. My ~vision~ was only slightly shattered by the rock hard lady fingers.

We'll revisit how to fix this later.
