This recipe is @thelescook's attempt to recreate their favorite breakfast order. With pillowy mantou, scallion eggs, savory soy paste, and cheese and pork floss, this is their idea of a humble yet luxurious breakfast sandwich: https://t.co/jkeEDecW3b #kitchn100

🍽 Mushroom YouFan (Taiwanese Sticky Rice) “While you can commonly find youfan on the streets of Taiwan, more elaborate versions are often reserved for special occasions such as Lunar New Year.”

🍽 Jessie’s Special Steamed Whole Fish Whole fish “symbolizes excess fortune for the year because the word ‘fish’ in Mandarin sounds the same as the word for ‘excess.’ And who doesn’t want to carry over extra fortune into the coming year?”

🍽 Mochi-Stuffed Jujubes (Soft Hearts) “This dessert is my own attempt at an auspicious pun for the next year: We all went through challenging times over the past couple of years, and I hope we can soften our hearts and treat each other gently.”

The first recipe in our Short Is Sweet collection is a hit to come back to all summer. Jessie YuChen (@thelescook) loves the way the sweetness of a perfectly ripe melon goes with Taiwanese black vinegar

Normalize paying cooks, sous or chefs for their recipes developed on the job or when they leave an establishment. Use of Intelectual property (IP) requires separate payment that’s not just from your regular paycheck. #givecreditwhereitsdue
