(Chop Suey anyone? or how about some ketchup in your sweet and sour???) I should start translating and trying more recipes from my Japanese cookbooks- there are some great, simple Chinese recipes in there. Funny about your friend- one thing I do appreciate about the States is the way a melting pot culture leads to amazing availability of international ingredients, especially in urban areas. Japanese supermarkets tend to be more monocultural, unless they are very gourmet or located in huge cities like Tokyo or Yokohama. I missed my international ingredients while I lived there sometimes... Even some Chinese ingredients were hard to find. :) -Sea Hi Naomi,

(Although their crispy peas are lovely). They will make their Spicy General Tso's dish with Shrimp, but not with tofu, as far as I know. That motivated me to make my own! I was inspired to make the recipe by a chicken one I found on a copycat recipe site- so can't take tooooo much credit. ;) I have fun varying the veggies for the saute underneath, too... last time there was red pepper, cabbage... all kinds of goodies. I always hated PF Chang's veggies with the Spicy General Tso, as it was chock full of celery. Anyway, good luck staying on the wagon and have fun cooking! *hug* -Sea Hi Ellen,

Infused oil is the best for flavor. Actually we used to go to this Chinese restaurant in Chiba City that had the best food- and their secret was garlic infused oil. So tasty! They were really nice about "Niku Nashi" as well... The garlic in this recipe is little bitsy crispy cubes, about the same width etc as a julienne- it's good stuff. I hope you can find the book- it's my hands down favorite. One thing to keep in mind is that they take a somewhat loose approach to vegetarianism- there is a chapter of seafood recipes. However, the chapter on vegetables blows away any other book in my collection- and I've got quite a collection. ;) Love genmai... Love basmati, jasmine- if it's rice, I love it. ;) -Sea Hey there VegJ! Infused oil is the best for flavor.
