Bun Rieu is a very traditional Vietnamese soup made with a bright red & clear colored soup stock with vermicelli rice noodles, tomatoes and “Rieu” which are Vietnamese meatballs of shrimp, crab, eggs and usually pork (this recipe is pork-free).

Wow, Bun Cha!  This is one of my favorite childhood dishes. It's also a classic Vietnamese street food made of caramelized pork meat patties, served with vermicelli noodles, fresh herbs and a tasty nuoc cham (a tasty quintessential Vietnamese dipping sauce). 

What you didn't know, is that this dish, is entirely plant based! 

There's many ways of cooking the razor clams including steaming, baking, and broiling them whole in their shells. One of the most popular methods is steaming them in a Vietnamese butter/wine sauce with scallion onions and garlic.

Simple but very delicious, this tomato and egg stir-fry is truly a national dish adored by most households in China…

This satisfying dish combines ripe tomatoes with gently scrambled eggs in a balanced sweet and savory sauce. It’s often served with a bowl of steamed rice and is one of my ultimate comfort meals!

This is actually one of my personal favorite dishes when I travel to overseas.

Simple but very flavorful, this is one of Julian and my favorites. It’s one of my mom’s favorite things to eat and it’s vegetarian! 

Typically the tofu is deep fried but we air fried the tofu instead for a healthier alternative and is seasoned with fresh tomatoes, garlic, shallots, fish sauce and topped with sliced scallions and served with a bowl of peeping hot jasmine rice.

Sometimes it's just easier picking up a cookbook to try something new & tasty!

Tastemade's new book, "Make this Tonight - Recipes To Get Dinner On The Table ", features 100 delectable recipes. The cook book contains some asian favorites like Khai Jiao Thai Omelet (as featured), Kimchi Pancakes, Korean Beef Bulgogi, Soy-Braised Chicken Drumsticks and even Super Garlic Kimchi; all of which I'm totally making soon.

I made this Thai -style omelet from the book. It's super soft with fluffy layers of scrambled-like eggs . It has nice crispy golden edges and packs in some umami yumminess from the little hit of fish sauce that was beaten into the eggs .

Nothing says summer like grilled corn and to add some Vietnamese flair, I slathered it in a seasoned mayo cream and garnished it with mỡ hành, a popular Vietnamese relish made by lightly frying scallions in oil aka “scallion fat”, fresh cilantro, black pepper, and a dusting of parmesan cheese and smoked paprika.

I just picked up my Asian CSA yesterday and I was so excited to see okra on the list! Okra, aka lady fingers, contain pods that are “mucilaginous,” which results in a super slimy texture when cooked.

This “mucilage” or slime is a debatable matter. Some folks either enjoy this gooey texture and others just hate it for that same reason.
