The "prickly ash" stuff they sell in Chinese stores is usually crap, full of seeds and barely numbing at all. It's worth getting some from a decent place like Penzey's or The Spice House.

I realized today there is just no reason for me to make some stuff myself. There is no way I could make a huge mound of chicken/shrimp/pork lo mein for $7.

Huge mounds of lo mein: The only authentic Chinese food ever.

I feel like this about my favorite thai dish, som tum, the green papaya salad. The dressing for it seems to a gigantic pain in the rear end to put together, in terms of finding ingredients, and I can get a good sized plate of it from the place down the street for $6.

Som tam is incredibly easy to make. All it involves is mashing a bunch of ingredients to varying degres in the same mortar and pestle, then seasoning with sugar, tamarind water, lime juice, and fish sauce.

Sure, just add liquid and keep cooking until it falls apart. That's how they do it in restaurants.

I finally tried angry lady recently. The flavour is great, and I love the crispy bits, but it's way too salty to actually eat. I will definitely be DIYing a batch though.
