01/16 - Sportsball Saturday

Everyone is coming out of the forest!

 

Just got home from the Asian market!

 

Get anything new?

 

Natto!
I haven't tried it before so I'm excited for it!
Bunch of fish balls for the hot pot base we got.
Some enoki mushrooms that I'm looking forward to.

 

Got to try these new lays too

They taste GREAT

 

What the?! It wasn't masters required this morning! Okay....

 

I know, I hate that. I've just felt pressured into just marking it what tv wants me to mark it as instead. I ignore brain input and click recommended like a good tv slave.

 

Natto



I'm really curious about it's taste. I've only ever hear people talk about the texture and smell.

I love enoki mushrooms and fish balls . Enjoy your hot pot

I'll look for these next time I'm at an Asian market. Do they make your tongue numb?

 

Yeah I have no clue about natto or how far I'll get into the eating experience! I'm a huge textural eater so this might be tough for me but I'll give an honest report when I try it. The chips don't really make my tongue numb like sichuan peppercorns do but it certainly does have a sour start to the chip. I tried one and was really confused at first. It tastes savory sour taste in the first moment and then it moves to a warm/spicy savory soup flavor. Really interesting experience and I'm pretty sure I like it but not quite sure yet. Certainly not a chip you eat the whole bag of. Way too flavorful for that.
We got the spicy Little Sheep hot pot set. I fucking love it. It's the main brand we buy.

Plus, look at that ultra cute sheep!

 

lol forgot to actually reply to this one too even though I tagged it. I'm always like ' Its above min wage here so idk, it's fair?' It really went something like fair was 7.25 to 15.00; 15.00-19.00 was good; 19.00+ was generous. I guess that's not quite tv was looking for though so

Ah shit, that's almost my entire stash.
