Web and app developer. Coffee, beer, and running, in any order.
Monday I made the Chicken Karaage (Japanese-Style Fried Chicken with Soy, Sake, and Ginger Marinade) recipe from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s The Wok cookbook.
The chicken was good, like all fried chicken is good. There wasn’t anything particularly special about it. 3 stars ★★★☆☆
Saturday I raced the Atlanta Track Club Decatur DeKalb 5k in Decatur.
I hit my race strategy and ran my fastest 5k since 2022.
Tuesday I made the Chongqing-Style Dry-Fried Chicken recipe from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s The Wok cookbook.
I thought it was good 4 stars ★★★★☆
A few recap thoughts on our Hawaiʻi trip and links to each day’s recap post.
This past week I made the Nua Kem (Thai-Style Beef Jerky) recipe J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s The Wok cookbook.
It was good, but only 3 stars ★★★☆☆ for now. I’d like to try again with thicker slices to try and get a “juicer” than beef jerky result that Kenji describes.
