I just took my Asian spices out of the pantry to rearrange them. Holey moley ! No wonder my wife says there's no room in the pantry. And, this doesn't even include the stuff I have in the fridge.

Looks familiar. Next time you're in an Asian grocery, pick up some Red Boat No. 40 fish sauce. Expensive but well worth it.*******Owner of a large and a beloved mini in Philadelphia

Spices Recalled Due to Salmonella Threat
Associated Press: Union International Food Co. is expanding a spice recall to include all Lian How brand and Uncle Chen brand sauces, oil and oil blends in various size packages because the products may be contaminated with salmonella, an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections, especially in young children, the elderly and those with weakened immune systems. The company had previously recalled Lian How brand and Uncle Chen brand dry spices.
Speaking of recalled Asian ingredients, I went to H.E.B. the other day to buy mung bean sprouts for Sukiyaki, but I didn't find them. I asked the produce manager, and she said there was a recall on them 6 months ago and they still aren't safe to eat. I said "How can that be? It only takes 2 weeks for them to grow?" That seemed to irritate her. I went to Krogers and bought them. The produce manager said there hadn't been a recall on them.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious -
Wow! When was that? I was talking about the extra hot sriracha.

That's not so bad. I've filled my kitchen cabinets, and now have stuff in book shelves and end tables. Took me close to half an hour the other day to find one ingredient.
My problem is that there are now 3 places in town that sell a huge range of condiments, spices, oils, vinegars, etc. One is filled w. European goodies (most at a ridiculous price,) another has stuff from all over S.E. Asia, the Caribbean, and even some African, another is Indian, which will have 1 - 2 - 4 pound bags of spices for just a couple of bucks a pound.

I have a load of Indian spices. My spice cupboard smells like a gurkha's armpit

Reminds me of my "spice" cupboard, until we had the good fortune to meet some extraordinary asian families from Taiwan, China, Malaysia and Japan. We have learned to keep things simple and rely on very few basic ingredients to make our own sauces and blends. Still, when in my local T&T or other asian food store, can't help wondering how that bottle of mystery sauce would work.....Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

You might just get by with one Dizzy Pig or one John Henry. Also, just keep the rum and get rid of the bourbon, tequila, vodka, etc.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

one good thing about alot of the asian ingrediants is that they dont go bad, well fish sauce already went bad but fortunatly it only goes bad once
