11/10/14: Taiwanese

ramona's first mini supper club and first noodle eating-playing experience!

Neil made taiwanese soup dumplings using green, seaweed-based agar. I made taiwanese beef noodle soup. We had taiwanese caveman cookies for dessert (just kidding, not taiwanese, but i happened to have some from the batch I baked on Friday).

he made the soup from delicious pork belly and other meats. the agar keeps it solid for assembling purposes, and melts when steamed

neil the master dumpling assembler


ta-da! tinge of green

i slow cooked the beef for 8 hours

yum

so professional, neil!


gobble gobble

play play

Mar 13, 2014: Impromptu MSC with pesto pasta and purim cookies

Neil came by to pick up his chair and we threw down an impromptu mini supper club. Good thing he showed up with purim cookies!
  • Linguine tossed with basil pesto, red onions, tomatoes, and red peppers
  • Cody's famous salad
  • Neil's purim cookies






Jan 31, 2014: Colombian

on the menu for our Colombian-themed mini supper club:
  • Sancocho (yes, I followed a Puerto Rican recipe, but close enough)
  • Arepas, aka crack, with guacamole


(note to self: i only needed 2 of those containers of beef broth. and i got the yucca and plantain at mi pueblo)
