That so wonderful. Taiwan have a simple dish which is sold in foodstalls call minced pork with rice. My mother made often when we were little. Family food. Do you have a recipe for sesame peanut candy?

Hi, Lily
Mac has planted holy basil in her dessert garden, it grows happily there, will you give it a try next Spring?
Holy basil also goes great with sseafood: shrimp, cuttlefish too., yet Northern Thai people prefers it with beef. ^^
tahai
it has been awhile since i hear from you. how have you been? busy cooking?
I must ask Mac to freeze or cook her excess holy basil or if she has the seeds, to send me some.
keep in touch and thank you again for let me have the chance to try holy basil.
Oh I in love with it when I bought 2 boxes from 7-11 in Pattaya as we would wait for our flight in the afternoon in BKK. I think it is sold in all 7-11 in Thailand.
By the way, do you know that the Thai basil is from the bird eye seeds. The black little tinny seeds that we soak them in water and it will expand and be came a little pearl but has a black spot in it !! Indian sold it in rose milk drinks !! Or in rose syrup drinks.
