It's like a Southeast coast New Orleans with rice, seafood, sausages and the African influences. Worth visiting if you get a chance.

While listed on menus as an appetizer when cooking for me, with rice/veg it is a meal. Can be doubled/served as party food in lettuce/endive wraps. She's done several videos of this over the years. A clip shown at the beginning of this video is from WAY back. 🍜🇹🇭🌶️ #thaifood #hotthaikitchen

Awesome! While personally I'd leave off the sour cream (not a fan), everything else looks wonderful.

Very nice! Back in early 1970 I briefly lived in the Lowcountry of SC and sadly knew nothing of Gullah culture and cooking. It's one of the foundations of Southern/Soul Food culture.

Not because of surgery (good luck!) but no option for smoking at my apartments.

Brown isn't always pretty but it is usually very tasty.

Yes to both. That is the foundation of the problem.

Thanks. It was not the best as I had plugged the rice cooker in and didn't turn it on. I noticed half way during the stir fry.

Similar to what is found in Mississippi. While this says wrapped in corn husk, you can by them in the can in grocery stores and in some restaurants wrapped in paper. There is a Hot Tamale Trail in the Mississippi Delta. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_tam...

A Sprouts market recently opened nearby. Went to get potatoes & heirloom tomatoes. On the way in I spotted frozen organic mussels at a good price. Augmented by sauteing shallots in butter, white wine & lemon juice. Cooked the mussels, added chopped parsley & served with sliced bread. 🍽️🍜

The cooked mussels in a white bowl with two slices of bread.

The outer package that says, "Organic Mussels" at the top and below left it says,

"NATURAL

Wasn't a big fan growing up, because my Mom's meatloaf was sad. I've learned since that there are many variations of the base and that you can add/swap many things.

Tried this IP method of cooking potatoes for mashed. Works very well. Of course it actually takes longer because of time to build up pressure. 🍜 #foodsky
