I will also admit I am not a fan of many Asian foods especially Japanese. Some yes most not. The one I cant remember what it is called where they eat the fish while it is still alive and flipping is beyond belief. Most American people dont even know that sushi is not raw fish, it can be used in sushi but it isn't just raw fish. It is the rice and the preparation of it. |

Sushimi is the type of sushi that has raw fish.
I did a lot of bowing in martial arts, which is from Japanese culture. Chefs at Japanese restaurants always seemed very happy when I gave them a very slight bow as we introduced ourselves. There's hardly any Asian people where I live, so I don't think they get that very often. |

I don't disagree with you there!
What about haggis? Stinky blue cheese? Every cultural has something for food that may not be agreeable to others. Quote:

They have stages of hotness when you order. I ordered the stage three the hottest they have. The lady asked have you been here before? I said no. Then you might not like it. Bring it on I said there isn't anything you can throw at me I cant eat. Okay. She was flabbergasted I could eat it she told me it was even too hot for her. It was about medium for me I told her. The restaurant was a good place too, not your typical Americanized place and no buffet plus the prices weren't bad and the setting was good.

I am looking forward to fermenting asparagus in a few months. Think it will maintain it's crispness - has anyone here tried it?

Worth and others, I just saw on The Sausage Maker website that the 5 liter crock is on sale for $90.00 and they have free shipping for items that do not require freight shipping. May be worth checking it out.

Arlie it had been that price for awhile thanks.
But I have to say if anyone is interested in this or canning with pressure canners they better get a move on, the prices ARE going up and fast. Worth |

korean soybean paste
even if you do not want to spend a year or five following this recipe, this video is informative, interesting and features a super cute Korean woman making DoenJang from scratch. Check it out;

I've had the ends pickled in vinegar but never tried fermenting them. So far my favorite pickles have been okra and eggplant. I'm going to try watermelon rind this year among other things. |
