Ooooh wow. So much goodness. The harvest festival!!! The pasta! The raspberry tarts!!!!!!! The veggies!! The pickles!!! Chick wheat!!!! I still haven’t tried making it, even though I’ve had it on my radar for so long. I’m so happy for you that you are surrounded by veggies!! By the way, Musty now holds you in the highest regard and talks about your culinary creations to this day.

Amey, I am now tickled you found me here (too!!!)

You two would have had such a hoot at the harvest festival --- so many seasons within ONE weekend!!

Please know I hold you both in such regard as dining companions : )

I was JUST making fresh pasta last night and lamenting that I didn't make it for you two!!

Wow!! Incredible produce & the meals you’ve made from it look beyond delicious & intriguing! Chickwheat obviously passed me by a few years ago... what is it?

Hi hi! First, thank you for the kind words on the harvest cooking! : )

The chickwheat is a vital wheat gluten + pureed chickpea combo where you make a (somewhat) quick seitan, steam it, and then break it all up into shreds! I imagine you could have a lot of thrilling fun with it + Hong Kong flavor delights !
