Ronizza: Pork Pizza with Rapini & Bell Peppers

04Apr09

My drink is called a Rontini and my pizza is a Ronizza!
I really wanted pizza last night but was not able to get any so I decided to give yeast another try. I just found out that warm-hot water is the key. I used to always use room temperature water… I put my favorite ingredients [...]

Hawaiian-Style Kalbi Ribs

22Mar09

I LOVE eating baby back ribs. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. I usually make them Chinese-style in two ways; one with dark + light soy sauce, and the other with Chinese vinegar (black) + brown sugar.
This is a sweeter adaptation of the Korean-style ribs. This way of cooking keeps the ribs moist so it’s not going [...]

BBQ Pork with Snow Pea Leaves over Noodles

26Oct08

豆苗叉燒麵
This is another rendition of “meat” on noodles with “vegetable”. Every time when I leave the Chinese supermarket, if I remember, I buy 1-2lbs of BBQ pork. If I could, I would eat BBQ every day and wouldn’t get sick of it.

You can buy BBQ pork in Austin in 2 restaurants: First Chinese BBQ (10901 [...]
