Sure thing, there are other versions if you do a search for it. This is the first time I made it. When I decide to make something new, I like to look at all the different recipes and then tailor to the way I think I would like it best.

Hey James, I shut this off several hours ago and just checked on it because we are taking it to a friends house. I think I added too much rice to it (I didn't measure) because it is more of a gumbo now then the soup it was. LOL I know I'll have a lot left and what I am going to do is get some good sausage tomorrow morning to fry up and I am going to cut that up and add to it. I think it'll be awesome. Just an idea for enhancing left overs.

 

[jamesngalveston]

that sounds like a good idea to me...
i did a search on the net for it..I am defenitley making it..
not sure why i never heard of it...but what the heck..
I wish i had a big bowl now.

 

[jamesngalveston]

Dan do you make your own cup cheese....are buy it somewhere.

Had a great day yesterday seeing old friends. One friend who lives in Tokyo now I haven't seen since college 28 years ago. We spent the day sightseeing at the Tsukiji market and Asakusa. We stopped for lunch in the Tsukishima district famous for monjayaki and okonomiyaki.

Okonomiyaki is like a savory pancake with seafood and cabbage.

Monjayaki is a different version which is less solid and more watery. But the base is seafood and cabbage still.

After a day of walking around Tokyo I met up with a former student of mine and we spent the evening in a fantastic oyster bar with lots of great food and drinks. I even had some Japanese white wine that was pretty darn good.

Yes, even oyster pizza . . .

fois gras and beef . .

My wife is back on her weird diet so she had 5 oz of meat and a class of Pinot noir.

Since she left me to find for myself on such short notice , I cooked about all I could find with what emerged I have ( I spent all day painting my basement and can't feel anything below my chin)

I ended up with heating up some instant Mac & cheese, and 2 spicy black bean boca burgers.
Washed it all down with some homemade chianti and I am sweetening with cranberry juice.

I think I am going to start a road trip and come over to all your places for dinner, cause I don't eat like that on any day!

 

[jamesngalveston]

if your road trip leads you to galveston my friend, you will be fed like a king.....
come on down.....
