That unagi looks uhhhmazing.

I'd make little nigiri and some sushi rolls with it.

And how did you getthat awesome frosting pattern in the first one?! I must try that!

First cupcake, I really need to be more clear... sorreh. :P

All you have to do is cut a small hole from the piping bag (I used wax paper, seems to work the best.) and go criss cross and as you go higher, you form a pyramid, sorta? I hope this makes sense. :x

Loved the bbq pork pics.

I've always wanted to try spaghetti carbonara but never had the courage to try the raw egg yolk over hot spaghetti ... any details on the technique you can share?

Eggs cook very, very easily. I hate it when it curdles and becomes scrambled because of the heat. What you should do is mix eggs with a few tablespoons of heavy cream. Ratio 1 egg: 1tbs. Do this while your pasta is cooking, beat it and mix it thoroughly. When your pasta cooks, drain it (reserve 1/4 cup of pasta water), put it back into the same pot (helps retain heat) and start tossing it with the egg/cream mixture. If your sauce is creamy enough, you should not add the reserve water. If it's too thick, add some.

Another way is to cook bacon in a fairly large pan and add the pasta to it, toss and then add the egg mixture slowly.

I love over easy eggs so I have no problems with fairly raw eggs. But goodluck!

I'd never have thought of putting a fried egg on lettuce, but boy is that a perfect egg if I ever saw one.

And god I love unagi, we can get it at the store here really cheap and just broil it to get it heated up.

Oh I just love it when the yolk creates a messy sauce :D If you want to be healthy, ditch the fried egg for a poached one!

Lucky you! I live in a small town 3 hours from Chicago so I usually stock up when I visit. :D

As a great fan of sushi (as you can guess from my icon) I'd love to find a source for unagi in south-western Ontario. :(

Damn, we're far away in Los Angeles. :(

I was so happy to see it there. They have a really well-stocked fish monger and butcher, so we can get meat for sukiyaki or fish for sashimi easily, not to mention it's all really fresh and inexpensive, and they have sales now and again. God I LOVE that place.
