Works good on button mushrooms, also.

Yup, but a sharp knife or Cuisinart with a special blade works even better 
Speed! Ease of cleanup! Only doing 4 mushrooms at a time!
Today I made some lu rou fan / Taiwan braised pork with rice, following this recipe:
I subbed boneless country style ribs and top loin for the pork belly because I didn’t have any pork belly on hand. It was easy to make and came out well.

As do I. Use it lengthwise, then pick up the slices all together and put the egg in the other way and slice again. Gets a decent rough chop quickly.

I also use the above slicer but when I want a quick chop, this can’t be beat. The tines are sharp and closely spaced, instant chop.

Looks very useful. Where can I get one, and what is it called? Thanks. 
It is useful and Amazon carries it but I be hard pressed to purchase it now as it has more than doubled in cost. It’s presently $26…not sure it’s worth it. I had purchased it in a kitchen store for $12.
ETA I think I found it under the generic masher, stainless steel tines. I don’t have the link.
Thanks. I’ll just keep my eyes peeled. I already have the handleless egg slicer so I probably don’t need the other one!

Lunch with my friend with whom I reconnected after a decade — she’d never heard of my favorite taco place in town, so II took it upon me to pop her Carter’s Table cherry 
We shared a flight of two Cajun shrimp tacos & one brisket taco. Needless to say she loved it, and will happily join me any Friday I plan on going.
One extra shrimp taco came home with me for my PIC who just landed & should be here shortly

Lunch today was “afternoon tea” style sandwiches. Egg salad with pickle relish and arugula on white bread. The whole wheat was ham, pork and pickled red onions.
Dessert didn’t quite know what it wanted to be. It started out as a crème pat with Cuaranta y Tres flavoring. I dipped a couple amaretti in the liqueur and layered them in the glasses. Since this looked pretty uninteresting, I added brandied dried fruit/nuts on top which improved it significantly!

Tea sandwiches are my favorite form of sandwich. The egg salad looks especially wonderful!
