What purpose does this serve exactly? I've never heard of doing that before.

As a caveat, I'm gonna mention that I melted a charcoal starter I got at home depot doing something similar.

my plan is to build an outdoor kitchen for my big green egg and put a turkey burner into the coutertop next to it

Yeah, we have this decent size covered concrete pad next to the garage that I really want to convert into an outdoor kitchen & grilling area. I'd like to build a table with an insert for my egg so I have an actual workspace for grilling and get a wok burner/homebrew burner set up out there too.

Thanks to you all I went and bought a bunch of hua jiao today and made kung pao for dinner tonight. May not be the best but it's a lot more satisfying than ordering takeout from the Cantonese places around here.

Bad thing is I've built up a tolerance and now I almost never get buzzymouth from Sichuan food anymore. :smith:

I have to eat a lot at once to get buzzymouth anymore. Also it goes away after a few seconds :smith:

Yes and yes. Here's a pretty good rundown and example: https://thewoksoflife.com/2014/06/carrot-ginger-pork-buns/
They are a fair bit of effort and take some practice to assemble right, but they save well so you can be snacking on them all week.

You can use whatever filling you want of course. The char sui pork recipe that gets posted here a lot is pretty solid, and I just made some curried beef buns yesterday actually. I really need to track down a spicy beef & pork filling recipe still, though at this point I might as well just make one myself.

You can also do whole wheat if you want to: https://thewoksoflife.com/2018/01/whole-wheat-mantou/

I shouldn’t read this thread before lunchtime, because now I’m a) hungry as hell and b) craving bao zi

From what I understand it doesn't always have tomatoes (the one time I ordered in Japan it did, and the internet has enough examples I know it's not an isolated incident), but it does almost always totally skip the chilies and Sichuan peppercorn and is sweet instead.

It actually tasted sichuan-y

Awesome. Tried a bit of the anchovy after seeing this, they are a little chewy but would be good on some rice I bet.

Absolutely. The erjingtiao have been mostly picked and it looks like I'm getting a ton of seeds. The chi-chien are still getting ripe, but I should have a handful of those to send too just probably not as many.

well, poo poo, if you've got a ton of seeds, I would happily take a stab at growing some here too

Yeah, I have a plant going but honestly I can't recall which is which now & it hasn't really fruited much yet. I got a couple little peppers off it, but I haven't had a chance to try them. They were starting to dry & darken on the vine, so I picked them while they were still pretty small. There's a number of others now, but I was waiting to see how they ripened. I have 3 or 4 green peppers just coming in now on the other plant, but I forgot to label either of them or lost it transplanting. I've mostly had them indoors because it's been super hot & dry here all season, but I put the bigger one outside recently and it seems to be doing a lot better there despite the temperature swings & aridity.
