Title: STRAITS CHINESE VEGETABLES IN TANGY PEANUT SA
Categories: Chinese, Vegetables
Yield: 8 servings

1 c Of roasted peanuts
1 Anchovy fillet, mashed to a
-paste
1 ts Of cayenne pepper
3 tb Of molasses
1/2 c Freshly squeezed lime juice
1 ts Salt
1 tb Granulated sugar
1/2 c Of water

The term “Straits Chinese” refers to the Chinese
descendants in Penang of the original Chinese
settlers, many of whom took Malay wives. Although the
origins and traditions of the food are Chinese, the
styles of cooking and many of the ingredients are
definitely Malaysian. This salad, which is filling,
flavorful, and very satisfying, contains no meat and
is, therefore, eminently suited to vegetarian diets,
being well balanced nutritionally.

SAUCE Crush the peanuts, using either a rolling pin or
a large mortar and pestle. Place the peanuts, together
with the rest of the ingredients,in a food processor
or blender and process to a smooth sauce. Set aside.

VEGETABLES 1 rectangle of bean curd (tofu), pressed in
a colander until firm and cut into 1 inch cubes 2
medium potatoes, scrubbed but not peeled 6 eggs 8
string beans, ends removed, cut on a diagonal into 2
inch lengths 1 cup finely shredded whit cabbage 2 3
large zucchini, ends removed, cut into 1 inch thick
disks 2 cups of tightly packed watercress, washed,
drained, and lower stems removed 1 cup vegetable oil

While the bean curd is pressing, set the potatoes on
to boil. In another saucepan, hard cook the eggs.
When the eggs are ready,immediately plunge them into
iced water. Empty the egg saucepan and refill it with
cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Put the
string beans in a small sieve or strainer and immerse
them in the boiling water for 3 minutes. Remove and
set them aside. Refill the sieve with the cabbage and
blanch it for 2 minutes. Blanch the zucchini for 3
minutes. Finally, immerse the watercress for 1
minutes. Set all the vegetables aside to cool. Shell
the eggs and cut them in half. Drain the potatoes and
set them aside to cool. Pour the vegetable oil into a
small saucepan and set it over high heat. Remove the
rectangle of bean curd from its makeshift press, mop
it with paper towels to remove any residual moisture,
and cut it into 1 inch cubes. When the oil is up to
deep frying temperature (375F) fry the bean curd until
the exterior of the cubes forms a crisp, golden brown
skin. Drain and set it aside on paper towels. Peel
the potatoes and slice them into disks,1/4 inch thick.
On a large platter, arrange the ingredients in
separate mounds. Pour the sauce over and serve. Makes
8 servings **Every part of this dish can be made in
advance. It can be served warm, at room temperature,
or cold.

Title: Home-Smoked Salmon
Categories: Fish, Signature
Yield: 8 servings

1 lb Salmon fillets or steaks
Alderwood chips
Chimney Smoker

This is a method rather than a recipe. The key is to use alderwood, a
hardwood found in the Pacific Northwest, as the smoking wood. It is
my understanding that in the PacNW, smokehouses and seafood grills
use GREEN alder twigs, but such things aren’t available on the East
Coast.

Ready a chimney smoker (I made one out of a galvanized trashcan
several years ago, but they are currently cheaper to buy than to
make!) with a small amount of coals while soaking the alderwood
chips. When the coals are glowing hot, drain the water from the
chips, place the chips on the hot coals, get the drip catcher and the
grate in place, and put the salmon directly on the grate. Close the
lid and leave it alone for 6 to 12 hours! The fish will cook at 130
to 140 degrees, and will probably flake when removed from the grate.
This is of a different flavor and consistency than your normal
perception of smoked salmon. The fish may be served directly in small
dishes with a fresh lemon wedge and a quality toast as an appetizer,
or it can be mixed with a little cream cheese, sour cream, and lemon
juice as a spread. Use your imagination!!!
