Pen-Fi (FPs, RBs, BPs, etc...) [56k Warning]
Take-sumi is, by far, my favourite black. But $50 is excessive. If it is really take-sumi 竹 炭 you mean then it's easily had for about half that.- Pudu

Tea-Fi?
Here's the sakura sencha. This one is much less complex - a lower quality tea for sure - but delightful, simple, and full of flavour. The cherry blossoms add a floral sweetness, but also a bit of spice - almost the tiniest hint of mild cinnamon. (sorry, I'm rubbish at gustatory analogies)- Pudu

Tea-Fi?
Showed up over the weekend, so I dove into the Tamaryoku-cha today. With a fairly low temp/short steep (70°C for 70 seconds) it makes for some lovely and surprisingly complex flavours - faint fruitiness (dried berries?) and grass, slightly more pronounced mineral, and a wonderful nutty...- Pudu

Calling All "Vintage" Integrated/Receiver Owners
I use psb bookshelf speakers with my 980 in my study all day long. They sound great together, but I wanted to get the Pioneers, however I was in India at the time and had to buy what I could find locally. The psb are great, sonically and aesthetically, but also substantially more money...- Pudu

I have not, but it looks damn fine. It will have to go onto the to-do list. Cheers. Last night I roasted the sesame seeds until they just started to pop - as per instruction. It makes the sesame sauce very dark, too dark. Next time I will skip the roasting and go straight to grinding in mortar...- Pudu

Tea-Fi?
Not yet. Actually, it was more than another week before I finally got around to ordering anything. I ended up going for a yume-wakaba sencha, some tamaryoku-cha, and some Uji matcha to replenish my dwindling supply (and I was a skinflint with the shipping options). I'll let you know what I think...- Pudu

I've never even heard of such a concoction :eek: - sounds fascinating not to mention seriously satiating. Tonight I went with mini kimchi burgers and tamanegi kakiage (たまねぎ かきあげ) - sort of tempura onion rings - with grated daikon and ginger for in the dipping sauce.- Pudu

I just finished watching the second episode of Cooked. It's much better than the first and has some great history of and insights into the food industry. Everyone should watch this.- Pudu

Awesome vintage iron. :tongue_smile: I don't really have any strong desire to upgrade from the 980, yet. So please stop posting this kind of smut.- Pudu

Steamed tilapia with ginger soy - supposedly a Cantonese dish. The seasoning was a bit pedestrian for my taste.- Pudu

That's a lot of meals - I find it so difficult to cook in rental kitchens. Nice work. I tried briefly rinsing soft boiled eggs with warm water after having dumped them into ice water to halt the cooking process. Peeling the shells off is so much easier when the shells have been warmed up to...- Pudu

If you mean marinade, it's just crushed ginger and garlic, some coarsely chopped green onion, and a generous splash of Shaoxing wine. I used to marinate overnight, but now I do it an hour or two before and it tastes just as good, if not better. I use kombu and katsuobushi to make dashi - but...- Pudu

Well, despite an overwhelming response to our quiz, no one has guessed it yet. So it's time for a clue. Edit - okay, there are two faces in both the puzzle and the clue - so you have double chances to be right :p.- Pudu

No, I hadn't - man these guys get paid way too much. I personally couldn't care less about any driver's lifestyle, as long as he isn't spouting hurtful nonsense. The reason I've been a Lewis fan since he started is because he always wears his heart on his sleeve and often races like G...- Pudu
