ReplyDeleteok for you i will add it to my list of things to "try again"... so far lamb and shiitake mushrooms.
ReplyDeletedinner tonight. without going to the asian market i could only find dried shiitake but rehydrated and mixed with other veggies it wasn't half bad and i would make it again. and the salmon had just the right amount of spice.
