Watched a new episode of Chinese cooking Demystified on YouTube today. They were going over danshan. A chili mix that were used in Yunnan like Tajin is used in Mexico and as creole seasoning is used in Louisiana etc. I thought it sounded familiar and I was right. I made some of this stuff a few years back and didn't know the name so I called it dipping chilis. Good stuff. But there's also a Sichuan version called gan die. I made a new small batch but also bought the other two versions premade to see how mine compares.

Mine has a bunch of ingredients like 3 kinds chilis, black pepper, Sichuan peppercorns, mandarin peel, star anise, cinnamon, msg, ginger, white pepper, salt, garlic, fennel and toasted sesame seeds.

Hi guys, this is the last video that I will make for a while, it features a good dose of fuzz (MJM London Fuzz) plus other effects such as wah (Real McCoy Custom RMC3FL), envelope filter (WMD Protostar), ring modulator (Fairfield Circuitry Randy's Revenge), analog delay (Analog Man ARDX20) and a looper (Boss RC-5). Hope you like it...

Recently picked these up. The Sichuan book has been out for like 20 years and I've always heard of it but never picked it up. It was sitting right next to the other one at the bookstore so I grabbed it too. I already have his other book The Food Of Northern Thailand which is really great and the direction I normally cook Thai food. He's tight with Andy Ricker too (Pok Pok) and contributed some photos to Andy's books. But man this one goes Deep South. Really intense. It's also a beautiful book. Wow.

This morning I cooked a far different khua kling than I've ever cooked. More herbaceous and with added galangal and black pepper. I've always like the added heat of Vietnamese Kampot peppercorns. It was a very good lunch. Spicy

I've found the best bbq thermometer in my experience so far.  ThermPro.  

Now, it does the same thing most all of them do but, I've left it in the rain multiple times, for days sometimes, and it's still going.  If you leave it face down, it'll need drying out.  I did that by opening it up, and blowing all the water out of it.  But leaving it upright, or on its back, no issues.  

The other thing is, I've left it on for long periods- days- only to come back and it's still going.  So it's easy on batteries.  I clean the probe with a Clorox wipe. 

It comes with a remote monitor, with set points and alarms if you want to take a nap while you're cooking.  I don't care about that, actually I lost that part for a while, didn't miss it.  Found it in the grill compartment a few months ago. 

But yeah, the ThermPro gets my thumbs up.
