Are you insane?

It actually does look kind of like a small wok.  There's this Asian restaurant cookware store called Tongnan Fa or as we like to refer to it, Tongue On Fire, that I pass by to and from work.  I didn't know they made woks that big.  They have a huge variety of sizes and types.

By the way, I have an old hand hammered and well seasoned and well used wok.  Sadly now sitting unused in storage as I no longer have access to a gas stove.

guys, this isn't the Question Game thread

No, it's not a wok.  Does it look like a wok?

It's just a small frying pan.  If I had been making enough for my whole family instead of just myself, I likely would have used a wok

is there a no human flesh rule?

Is that human flesh?

Allow to soak overnight. Omit this step if using canned beans. Drain chickpeas, and place in pan with fresh water, and bring to a boil. Allow to boil for 5 minutes, then let simmer on low for about an hour. Drain and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Combine chickpeas, garlic, onion, coriander, cumin, salt and pepper (to taste) in medium bowl. Add flour. Mash chickpeas, ensuring to mix ingredients together. You can also combine ingredients in a food processor. You want the result to be a thick paste. Form the mixture into small balls, about the size of a ping pong ball. Slightly flatten. Fry in 2 inches of oil at 350 degrees until golden brown (5-7 minutes). Serve hot.

I'm cooking the books.    Shhhhhhhh.....

Heh heh.  We started out the day with some Scottish food: a McDonald's sausage cheese biscuit for me and an eggamuffin for her.  We went grocery shopping and picked up a burger for her and "nuggets" for me.  The Burger King really creeps me out, but I still get food from there occasionally.

My wife took over dinner duties and made a wonderful miso glazed salmon and a simple heirloom tomato salad including our home grown cherry tomatoes, home grown basil, non-home grown olive oil.  Oh my that was good.  A really nice combo.  My turn for tomorrow's dinner.

You know, what's the most delicious thing you've ever eaten? is worth it's own thread, however, I've had some really great food over my lifetime and I wouldn't know where to begin.

My son is making some ceviche for today.  We bought a big-ass piece of halibut and $7 worth of limes to soak the sucker in.  It's in the fridge now, 'cooking'.
