pho

[cometeoraine]

My mother hates cooking. It's amazing that our family was ever able to survive all these years with my mother's non-passion for anything food. But there are two great dishes that my mother can make better than anyone else I know (the rest are sub-par), they're egg rolls and pho. Having helped her made these two dishes time and time again, I know

I hope you'll have fun at it. Please tell me how it goes.

lol No wonder you love your Grandma :D

I used to hate eating my mother's pho every week, because every time she makes it, she makes it so that we'll have it every single meal for the entire week. Made me sick, but after not having it for a while, I do miss it. And it IS delicious!

Yummmm!! I was just talking about wanting pho! :) I'll see if I can attempt this some day.

So now I gotta ask - would she be willing to share her egg roll recipe as well? :D

And most chefs in general don't measure either. It's all by instinct and taste. PASTRY chefs on the other hand, measure every goddamn thing. XD

You should so try making pho. I think you'll have a lot of fun with it.

Of course I can get that egg roll recipe. I think there's a couple different ways my mother makes it for the family. It involves switching out a few ingredients and replacing some others, but both recipes are very unique.

LOL I had a feeling that most chefs don't measure; it makes sense.

That's probably why I never made any pastry items, requires too much measuring. And if I DON'T measure, it doesn't feel right D:
