Asian Spice Blend
This is a wonderful cuisine to explore. I have spent years dabbling into the different cuisines of the Orient. Asian spices are much more complex than just the few I add to this blend. But if you would like to make an excellent stir fry, grab a bag of mixed vegetables, and a bag of frozen shrimp. Coat your fry pan in sesame oil (2 T.), warm pan until hot, then toss in above ingredients. Sauté 5 minutes on medium heat; add 1/2 cup rice wine, 1 T. soy sauce, and 1 T. Asian spice, stir often. Ready in 8 minutes. Serve with rice. Asian Seasoning Sesame Vegetable Salad 1 Zucchini cubed 1 Carrot peeled and cubed 1 white onion diced 1 red bell pepper cored and cubed 1/4 lb sugar snap peas 1/2 c. sesame oil 1/4 c. soy sauce 1/4 c. rice vinegar 1/2 c. water 1 T. Asian seasoning -Put all ingredients in a container where the contents can be stirred frequently. The vegetables need to marinate for eight hours before serving, preferably refrigerated. Add salt to taste. Stir Fry 1 bag frozen stir fry vegetable 1 lb. frozen, cooked shrimp, tail off 1/4 c. vegetable oil 1/4 c. rice wine 1 T. soy sauce 1 T.
