Stir Fry -- back to top

This was a long time ago so I do not remember all of the details but we made stir fry with tofu (bought by accident). We used soy sauce, some teriyaki, and a bunch of other stuff.

We used real brown rice done in the pressure cooker. According to the timing chart at<http://missvickie.com/howto/grains/rice-cooking.htm>I was supposed to use 18 minutes and then a natural cool with a 1:2 ratio. I do not remember why, but I had to do something so I did 15 minutes then let the heat on the electric stove keep it warm. It worked fine

Horchata -- back to top

I roughly followed the recipe from last time. We were limited by our almonds so we just made about 1.5 times the recipe. We mixed the almonds and (brown) rice. We put in half of soaking water into that bowl. For the other half, we heated it and added the sugar (about 1 cup even though we were increasing the recipe). We also put one cinnamon stick in the hot water. Doing this separately was to dissolve the sugar. We then mixed it all together and let it sit.

We blended it, strained it, and added water. We also added a tiny bit of almond milk since we wanted to have more.

It came out tasting pretty good. Nice amount of sweetness and a strong cinnamon flavor

Kimchi Fried Rice -- back to top

Meredith and I made Kimchi Fried Rice from Food52 (local ¹). We followed the recipe pretty closely but with less rice. Actually, we made 4 cups of dry brown rice and stored 3 bags in the freezer. I did the rice with 2:1 ratio water, to rice. Toasted the rice in butter for a bit then added water. Simmered covered for 50 minutes then rest for 10.

Anyway, we used 1/2 a pack of the Super Firm tofu cubed and stir-fried as the main meat. We also went heavy on the soy sauce. The Kimchi was the one pictured below.

We didn't have all of the other optional ingredients but we super, super bulked it up with 1/4 head of cabbage (plus a little) and a huge amount of sugar snap peas.

It made a lot of food though it was really just the rice ad tofu with calories/points.

I liked it a lot. It wasn't as good as the restaurant one Meredith had a little while ago but it was still good. I used nearly the full thing of kimchi. Next time I would use it all since this was pretty good.

And, we got to have meat-free Monday!
