I have enamored of high quality ramen dishes. The major problem is that i have no space and time to make the broth I like. My local Japanese store sells excellent frozen pork and chicken broth with yuzu, so i tinker with and use that. —LeBec Fin

My eating passions are Japanese, Indian, Mexican; with Italian and French following close behind. Turkish/Arabic/Mediterranean cuisines are my latest culinary fascination. My desert island ABCs are actually 4 Cs: citrus, cumin, cilantro, cardamom, and GARLIC!
