x1yyz Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I just finished eating the (vegetarian) Tea Leaf Salad from a local Burmese restaurant. From their webpage: Tea Leaf Salad- La PhetVoted by Sunset Magazine as “the best salad in the West”. Mixed tableside, this salad/appetizer is enjoyed by Burmese people throughout the country. It is a fermented tea leaf dish tossed with a crispy mixture of nuts, beans, and garlic with shredded lettuce. It is truly “a party in your mouth”, it will change your mind about what salad can be. OMFG, I love this salad! Since discovering it at the beginning of the year I've been eating it about once per week. Sofa king good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The salad is romaine lettuce, dried lentils, peanuts, sesame seeds, fried garlic, tomatoes, jalapenos, probably some other stuff, and the "dressing" is the fermented tea leaves. They taste slightly sour/tangy but mild. And the whole thing together is more than the sum of its parts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

x1yyz Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Just finished a delicious sandwich: Sourdough baguette, red pepper mayo, veggie lunch "meat", spiced sauteed onions, lettuce, and a few homemade spicy dill pickles to top it off. Although I realized too late I should have toasted the bread. I love being able to cook. It makes life more ... delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it has some thing to do with taking the time to cook it. Some times you just don't want to eat it when its done. For me it depends on what I am cooking and how hungry I am at the time.

That could be. I kind of figured it was smelling it as it was cooking. I couldn't tell you how many times I've made stuff and then not wanted it after I cooked it. Or if I make a big huge pot of something like a soup or stew or whatever I'll eat it once and then I don't want it again.

(I've only had the former and it was delicious.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
