The First Day



Upon an exquisite impulse, we decided to begin our culinary journey with an impromptu after-work cooking session. We browsed the libraries of Epicurious and stumbled upon a Salmon "bulgogi" with bok choy and mushrooms. We were limited with ingredients so with some "guidance" from the recipe we decided to put our spin on this dish. Here is a list of ingredients we used:

Salmon and Zucchini Chips
Salmon
Marinating Sauce
  • Minced Garlic
  • Brown Sugar
  • Sesame Oil
  • Rice Wine
  • Soy Sauce
  • Hoisin (Hai Xian) Sauce
Zucchini

Oven baked at for 8 minutes and voila!

What a day. As we grow and develop our culinary understanding of food, we realize we start at humble beginnings. We're amateurs, but amateurs with a goal, a passion, for the finer foods in this world. We creatively make do with what we have and make the best with it. Now, all we need are some sweet chef names.

Bon Appetit
