Happy Year of the Dog everyone! You know this year is going to be good because when is anything associated with dogs bad? I’m not going to dig too deep into the subject of Chinese New Year because 1. I am not Chinese and 2. Google exists to serve inquiring minds. Instead, I’m going to focus on these Lamb Dan Dan Noodles because damn, I have a new favorite recipe. And, frankly, I refuse to associate it with a special occasion. It’s just not a fair context for such a comforting and satisfying dish.
Okay, so I totally get why these Ginger Tofu Fresh Rolls probably made you raise an eyebrow. I will admit they are a strange dish to kick-off December with. Most blogs are currently flooded with holiday cookies, cocktails, and gourmet host gifts but not this one. Oh no. Instead, this weirdo blog is posting a recipe that would be right at home in the middle of August. A recipe that would offer welcome relief from a raging heatwave. There is a reason for this bizarre content strategy. I promise.
