Mr. Tortilla’s whole wheat ones. I just didn’t feel like making my own and these are easy even if they have a lot of stuff in them. Mr. Tortilla’s Whole Wheat

Haven’t post for a while in WFD, due to boring repetitive meals and a busy schedule.

Tried to make Peking Duck on Sunday, inspired by the videos on the restaurant Li Qun Roast Duck Restaurant in Beijing. From the various videos, their method is to apply hot water to the uncooked duck to prepare the skin, then apply a kind of syrup. Then I let the bird dried out a day in the fridge. And prepare a broth inspired by a recipe I had as Li Qun’s broth is a top secret. The broth is poured into inside the duck during the wood fire cooking. Result, not bad, but felt more a smoked duck than a Peking duck! I think the way the fire is used made a lot of difference, probably a smaller flame is preferred.

Taco Monday - we had leftover rib eye (gasp) from dinner out on Friday (I had the steak, BF had a burger, and it was a huge steak) so BF made little carne asada tacos out of it. I didn’t want any big sides, just a simple, taqueria-style dinner. He did gild the lily a bit with a small quesadilla, too.
