well, the poached eggs first, because that is a *bitch* to get right. I am still training how to do that. Working out better and better now.


take a pot of water, and add a dash of white vinegar - that stuff is crucial, as it helps the egg to coagulate. Heat the water just to the briiink of boiling, best to actually get it to boil, and then take it off the heat for a moment, then put it back on a lower flame. You just want a light simmer. Break the egg into a small container, like a cup or something, then take a whisk and swirl the water to form a little vortex, that helps the egg to stay in shape. Geeently let the egg slip into the water (not too slowly though), and then just let it simmer for 3 minutes, if you did what I said earlier well, it should stay in shape. It might have a lot of the loose egg-white trail around it, you can keep that stuff or remove it later as you see fit. (reminder, there are 2 kinds of egg white, the loose stuff that just flows away, and the thicker part that stays around the yolk, which takes longer to get hard - best observed when making a fried egg.

it should look something like this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

doing several at once is kinda hard, you need a big pot for that. My advice is to just do one after the other, it's okay if they get a bit cold, the broth will warm it up again. 1-2 per serving, depending on how hungry you are

now for the broth if you don't feel like cooking out bones for a few hours, just do as I do and cheat using powder, when you are cooking at home there is no shame in that. Chop up a fresh red chili, in with it, add salt to taste, and a good amount of coarsely ground pepper, and a dash of soy-sauce. if you have some, coarsely ground ginseng, szechuan pepper and if you really want to bring out the best in the broth, a cinnamon stick (to be removed later, obviously), and a dash of vietnamese fish sauce. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes to let the flavour evolve, then take a few vegetables of your choice, I used bean sprouts, spring onion and pak choi, chop them into whatever mode you like them and add for a minute or two so they dont get too mushy, also add a pack of glassnoodles. It'll only take 1-2 minutes until they are ready. Prepare the bowl by taking the glassnoodles and the vegetables first (the glass noodles will be entagled like crazy, so that is easy), set them in the bowl and fill up with broth to your liking, then set the poached eggs on top of the noodles. With chopsticks, break them open, and let them spill over the glass noodles, time to chow down. Note that the egg yolk transforms the broth, starting out as a clear, brown broth, and turning it creamy and yellow by the time you chopsticked up all the big parts and have to switch to a spoon.

From the headchef himself, 2 michelin stars. Because he is heading to vacation over easter, he wants to see me TOMORROW




OH GOD

It's natural to be nervous before something like this, I know I would be terrified. Just give it your best shot, that's all anyone can ask for.

that being said, it's 11 AM, so when I get home and face Zhengara, either I will have gotten the post and Zhengara will be fucked ((he can't deal with a glass half full, and actuall full glass would drown him instantly. Alice should use that to power up ICARUS should ICARUS be on the verge of losing)), or I won't, in which case I will be so angry that Zhengara should really hope to have picked a better date.






or they will say "we will contact you in x weeks, when we have decided", in that case I will be so nervous I will hardly be able to spell zhengara
