Still working on spending down the freezer and the pantry before venturing out to go shopping; I\u2019m trying for three weeks between shopping trips and even then only to replenish perishables. This time, the freezer yielded bean curd sheets, aka tofu skins, aka yuba, and enough other aliases to give a Most Wanted felon an inferiority complex. They can be found dried (to be reconstituted) or refrigerated\/frozen, and their size and thickness dictate their use, sometimes for wrapping dim sum, sometimes for shredding into \u201cnoodles\u201d either supple or crispy, sometimes as an ingredient in a stir-fry; they have myriad uses throughout Asian cuisine.<\/p>\n

In addition, the freezer furnished lap cheong (Chinese sausages, \u81d8\u8178) and the pantry provided dried shiitake mushrooms and sticky rice, pretty straightforward. These specimens were steamed first, then fried, and napped with lightly thickened, seasoned chicken broth.<\/p>\n

More experiments in the name of desperation to come!
