This week's Friday Five:
- What's a yummy pan-fried dish? Seafood pajeon!
- What's a yummy slow-cooked dish? Pot roast!
- What's a yummy deep-fried dish? Tonkatsu!
- What's a yummy blanched dish? Wait, can you blanch anything else but vegetables? I guess I'm gonna have to go with good ol' choy sum with oyster sauce.
- What's a yummy smoked dish? Montreal smoked meat!
It never occurred to me that you can only blanche veggies. I think you can blanch nuts too, but those are sorta vegetables. Also, in a universe where everything is deep-fried everywhere, I love that my people have mastered it best with tonkatsu. You're totally right about that. When it's done well there's nothing better!
ReplyDeleteHaha, yeah, vegetables, legumes, nuts -- same category. :P
DeleteGod, I love tonkatsu. Pork, chicken, sauce, no sauce, Japanese, Korean... as long as it's battered properly, it's always good. Great, now I'm hungry.
