Tuesday I made the Cucumber and Dill Salad with Yogurt and Chile Oil recipe from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s The Wok cookbook.

I thought it was good and would make a great warm-weather side dish. I would make it again.

Last week I made J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s Vietnamese Fish Braised in Fish Sauce Caramel recipe from The Wok.

I was really looking forward to this one but was disappointed by a definite bitterness. But maybe that’s how it’s supposed to taste? 2 stars ★★☆☆☆

Last week I made the Tempura Sauerkraut and Onions recipe from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s The Wok cookbook.

The end result was fine, but more chewy than crisp. If we were really into tempura, I’d give these tempura recipes some more work. But we’re not really into tempura.

This past week I made the Fried Brussels Sprouts with Fish Sauce, Shallots, and Chiles recipe from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s _The Wok_.

It was good! But I think next time I’ll roast the Brussels sprouts and shallots instead of frying. 4 stars ★★★★☆

Last week I made the Crispy Chow Mein Noodle Cake with Shiitake and Bok Choy Topping recipe(s) from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s _The Wok_.

Thoughts on making J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s Sichuan Málà (Hot and Numbing) Chile Oil recipe from _The Wok_.

Good (what chile oil isn't??), but more work than I like. 4 stars ★★★★☆

Thoughts on making J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s Burnt Garlic Sesame and Chile Oil from his _The Wok_ cookbook.

We didn’t care for the sauce or the noodles. 1 star ★☆☆☆☆

Thoughts on making J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s Umami Oil (“XO Pepperoni Sauce”) from his _The Wok_ cookbook.

This is a long one. The recipe is mostly for the sauce with a note for making noodles with it. 4 stars ★★★★☆ for the sauce, mixed reviews for the noodles.

Thoughts on making J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s Congee with Shrimp, Saffron, and Spanish Chorizo from _The Wok_.

As written, this paella-inspired congee is 🌶️🔥. I had high hopes for this one, but may need to tone down the heat to give it its best chance. 3 stars as is ★★★☆☆
