I cooked two items today. First I made Glass Noodle Soup. It is a comfort soup like chicken noodle without the chicken. It has tofu, cabbage, carrots, celery, mushrooms and glass noodles. It was easier to make than I thought. Although my dog walker told me he thought it was hard to make so maybe I am getting better at making complicated recipes. It was so delicious. My dog walker said "very good!" I gave him some to take home.
Then I made Papaya Salad. This was a bit complicated. First I had no green papaya so I followed the instructor's directions and used cucumber. Where am I going to get a green papaya during a covid lock down? It was time to make due. I also didn't have any long beans. So, it is a covid papaya salad!
The dressing was supposed to have 1-3 red chili's. I put in 1/2 of a chili and the dressing burnt my mouth. I had to keep eating peanuts to cool it down. The salad was delicious but spicy.
I think I am liking Thai food. Some of it is spicy but I am being careful with how much of the chilis I am putting in the food. If I put the amount the recipe called for, my head would blow off.
Until tomorrow...
