🍽️ Steak donburi
I'm happy to announce my recovery from acute gastroenteritis!
Nothing bad happened after I ate the steak donburi \(≧▽≦)/
(Not the best or healthiest way to test whether you are recovering or not, but :P

Learned a new Italian idiom today!
"al verde" (to the green) means broke.
My favorite Italian idiom is "in bocca al lupo" (in the mouth of the wolf), which is equivalent to break a leg!
And the response of "in bocca al lupo" is "crepi il lupo" (may the wolf die).

🍽️ Steamed egg with shrimp and tofu
First time making this! An easy recipe that is full of protein.
The steamed egg and soft tofu have a similar texture and are a great combination.

🍽️ Unadon (eel bowl)
Found the unagi kabayaki from the Asian supermarket!
I made extra kabayaki sauce using mirin, soy sauce, rice wine, and white sugar (1:1:1:1).
Additionally, I added a pinch of ground white pepper and some starch to help the sauce thicken more quickly. #Food #FoodSky #Foodie

Don’t know what’s the deal with this monstera……
It hasn't grown a new leaf in 5 months, yet its roots are thriving like crazy and have outgrown the pot. This is the 2nd time I've had to repot it.
It is under growth light 12 hrs/day, so it should have sufficient light.

The rice was slightly burned cause I cooked it in the oil that dripped from the chicken while it was steaming. And that made the rice smell so good!

Cong you bing, also known as scallion pancake, is a savory flatbread made with wheat dough and minced scallions.

But I want to promote eating it with kimchi! It's a surprisingly great combination!
