update: nope, they don’t carry #galangal #SandGinger, so the hunt continues…

i did pick up a pork belly to braise in the master stock this weekend, though!

I've added a new ingredient from Thailand to my diet, galangal. It's an edible root that makes an excellent meat substitute, better than mushrooms. It's also very hot like a pepper.

Other ingredients with the jasmine rice are mushrooms, Thai pepper and Carolina Reaper chili powder.
