I made a dinner from your tofu book years ago and she was so delighted I gave her the book😊. She promises that we will meet someday, I will be so delighted!!!

Happy happy holidays to you as well.

BTW -- I heard that Grocery Outlet in the Monterey Bay, CA, area has Fly By Jing’s chili crisp for around $7. I don’t know if that deal is elsewhere.

Trader Joe’s sells some kind of crisp too. Regular supermarkets sometimes carry chili crisp by Lao Gan Ma (the company that kinda seeded the craze in the US).

Will try both these recipes this week, thank you for including your thought process on making them, both helpful and interesting. And yes, these are the days when we need recipes with less work, bigger impact, so thank you!

Best, Kirstin ( a private chef who has dog-eared all your books).

Oooh, I can't wait to try both these recipes. They sound doable and delicious! I totally get that whole spent and wrung out feeling, especially with the dark winter. I'm feeling behind in getting ready for the holidays. Hopefully this week I can catch up and make these recipes too. Thanks for sharing them!
