I remember my mother being horrified when she saw me eat rare steak.
My father told her it was the german in me coming out.
One time I orderd a rare steak and a woman at a table next to us started gagging and making a big deal out of it.
I thought this was a little over the top.
I got my wife to eat rare meat by having her eat it in the dark.

I am well practiced at saving seeds from my dinner plates, and growing the peppers when I get home. I got some Vietnam tiny red peppers from a bowl of pho noodles in the Old Quarter in Ha Noi. Ten seedlings now potted up.
I guess it is like buying dinner and seeds at the same time.

this gives me an idea LOL. actually earlier this year i went to a store and they hav a very nice healthy medusa pepper but it was 20bucks/pot, i figured its not worth buying, too expensive. but i noticed few red ripe ones were laying on the ground, so i "moved" them into my pocket
hey i just dont want them to be a waste LOL

I bought a kaffir lime tree in 2010, thinking I'm going to use it for some
thai cooking. I need to find some good recipes, and finally make something.
Scott, keep us updated on your peppers from your travels. Like to see how
they come out.

its actually pronounced tom yum. i always make my own and its alot cheaper, i bought the paste at the asian store, add extra kaffir lime leaves, lemon grass, some red bird's eye chilli plus a little secret ingredient and voila....here is my tom yam goong
actually im just kidding there is no secret ingredient
its just i like to add milk to get a nice creamy taste soup
