Tea Time

On June 29, 2006 in Different Dinner Project

Since the only vegetation I still have in my fridge is bok choy and mixed greens after spilling chicken juice all over the place a couple of days ago, I made another bok choy dish. This one was the best of the lot so far, though still not particularly impressive. Basically, it's just Bok Choy with Sauce and the sauce is just thickened chicken broth with soy sauce. It's salty and thick and much more like something I've actually eaten in a Chinese restaurant.

After the Tea Marbled Devilled Eggs, I wanted to try a few more recipes with tea. The tea recipes don't seem to be turning out nearly as well as all of the coffee ones, which were definitely favorites. Technically this didn't really work out because I ran out of propane on my barbecue and couldn't get it hot enough to fill it full of all that much smoke. The Tea Smoked Chicken was more like grilled 5 spice chicken with a sort of odd smoky flavor that left my tongue a bit numb. I couldn't really eat very much of it at all before throwing it all away. I thought it tasted sort of like a dry licorice spice tea. Here's hoping I get a chance to go grocery shopping soon so I don't have to make a mixed green casserole tomorrow.
