	Shrimp and Tofu with Black Bean Sauce by John Spottiswood We're on a mission to create the ultimate black bean sauce. This recipe is getting pretty close I think. I took bits from a traditional Chinese recipe and combined those with another few bits that I got from a Martin Yan recipe. The result was not as sweet as Martin Yan's, but with just enough sweetness to fill out the flavor of…	5 votes 1 review 3 comments 5765 views

	Noodles with Cabbage, Mushrooms and Roasted Seaweed by tigerfish I use instant noodles "cakes" for this. I partially cook them in boiling water prior to using, in order to get rid of the "oil" which they have been pre-fried in during manufacturing. Switch to healthier, "fry-able" options such as Udon, Fresh Egg Noodles or Pasta, if you have to. The roasted/toasted seaweed sheets used here are…	1 vote 2650 views
