Simmered Beef Shank from a Friend
“I made some simmered Beef Shank, would you love to have some?” every time I get this type of “Food Call” I get really happy. When you living in another country, there will be some homemade food exchange, or meal exchange happening around friends. That is a simple act but meaningful behavior for taking care of each other. Today you offer me a beef shank treats, next time I have a dinner gathering, you will be on the invitation list.
The best way to thank the person who gives you good food is to have it right away. Or prepare a proper meal to go along with that specific dish and plate it with beautiful plates.
The previous batch of B3 Brown clay with Satin White glaze plates and bowl has been collected into a set and a nice scenery on the table.
「欸,我滷了牛腱,你要不要一點?」每次接到這樣的電話都會讓人開心好一陣。這大概是人在國外,朋友之間有一種煮夫主婦的食物交換日常。
今天誰包了餃子,上次分享食物的人就會有餃子吃,今天得到了一點食物的驚喜,下次自己做菜就不能忘記要相約一下,是一種互相照應的禮尚往來,也是一種味蕾轉換和廚藝的相互刺激。
收到食物的餽贈如果不能當面好好品嚐,那就要好好呈盤煮一桌享用以示感謝。前一段時間累積的黑土緞面白食器系列已經可以好好妝點餐桌,也可以安安靜靜的襯出料理的風景了。
