A very Happy New Year to alllll of my faithful readers...all three of you! haha We went to a BIG Asian market today, T&T Supermarket here in Ottawa, what an incredible place...really neat selection of produce, seafood, meats and teas, cooking and kitchen utensils, frozen veg and sauces to die for...black bean garlic sauce for instance...and really baby bok choy, the tiny ones that are really hard to find elsewhere....yay! I stir fry those with garlic and some lemon and they're awesome....
Today's new fruit, kumquats! They're small, about the size of a walnut, and firm, mostly orange with some green on them...you start the peeling with your thumbnail or a small knife, and when it's about half peeled, you just eat it out of the other half of the skin...there were a few seeds in the one I had so far, like orange seeds...it's a bit pulpy and tastes a bit like a tangerine and a peach together...nice, pleasant sweetness without being overbearing...
We also got some more dragonfruit, literally half the price! My dad and my son's friend also had a piece, they'd never seen one before, and they both liked it a lot...
Happy New Year again!
