Khao Kha Moo (ข้าวขาหมู) is Thai-style braised pork leg served over rice. 🐷🍚 The pork is slow-cooked until tender in a rich, fragrant broth with a deep, savory-sweet flavor. It’s usually served with rice, blanched greens, pickled mustard greens, a boiled egg, and a spicy vinegar-garlic-chili sauce on the side. #foodstr #siamstr

Feeling like a sandwich for lunch today, so I’m making some #sourdough focaccia. Doesn’t she look pretty already? 🥹 #foodstr #flowerstr

Korean-inspired dish with local, homegrown ingredients. I stopped by the flea market and picked up some beautiful seasonal produce—sesbania flowers - ดอกโสน (they’re blooming everywhere after the recent rains), winged beans - ถั่วพู from a sweet grandma (who also sold me a huge bag of passion fruit for just $1!), and a few other fresh finds. I pan-seared some steak, made a gochujang sauce, and kimchi soup using my homemade kimchi. I added some Siam Ruby pomelo that wasn’t flavorful enough to enjoy on its own (bad luck picking it 😞), but on the plate it worked beautifully, bringing a refreshing balance to the whole dish. #foodstr #siamstr

GM 🌞 I just got myself a Pullman bread pan (the tall rectangular one with a sliding lid—you often see it for shokupan or Japanese milk bread) and I’m pretty excited to give it a try! For the first run, I used my usual sourdough, so of course there are some adjustments to figure out like dough volume, baking time, and shaping. What I like is how convenient it feels—the loaf traps steam inside as it bakes, almost like a mini Dutch oven. So if you’re usually baking in the oven, this might be something fun to experiment with. I normally do open bakes, so I can’t say how much of a difference it makes overall, but I will say: way less fuss with steaming! The one challenge, though—shaping the dough and getting it into that narrow pan with those tall, straight sides. Let’s just say high-hydration dough doesn’t exactly make it easier, and I was definitely juggling a slippery situation. 😂 Even with things to work on, the crust came out nice and crispy, singing that beautiful sound as it cooled. I’ll let it rest and see what the crumb looks like soon. Anyway, I’ll keep practicing until I get the hang of it! Wishing you all a happy and peaceful Sunday! #foodstr #sourdough

A golden, hearty loaf to start the day is such a simple joy, but one of the best 🙂‍↕️ #foodstr #sourdough

Spotted this fluffy thing while doing shoulder presses. 🥰 My advice: always keep some dried chicken in your pocket—you never know who you’ll run into! 🐾 #catstr

Lazy pasta dish tonight—homemade Italian sausage with a spicy cream sauce, topped with crispy garlic and a little parm. 🍝 And here’s my “cheat” way of making crispy garlic: mince or slice the garlic, coat it with a bit of oil (I used coconut oil), then pop it in the microwave on high for 1 minute with the lid on. Take it out, give it a stir to make sure the oil coats well, and repeat 2–3 more times. Easy, quick, and deliciously crispy. 🧄 #foodstr

I’ve been wrestling with this block of pork belly for about 20 minutes, but finally managed to roll it up for the next step of making chashu pork. It won’t be dinner tonight since it needs resting time in the fridge, but now I’m stuck on the big question—what should I have it with? Just a simple bowl (or two) of short-grain rice? 🍚 Or should I go all in and make ramen? If ramen… tonkotsu or shoyu or just shio? 🍜 Decisions, decisions… what do you think? #asknostr #foodstr

Quite a colorful meal tonight—pulled pork tacos with salsa de piña, pickled onions, and fresh homemade tortillas. Bright flavors and a whole lot of comfort in every bite. 🌮 #foodstr

Belly rubs on the beach = BEST DAY EVERRRRRRR! Thanks, Dad! Woof! 🐾 #dogstr

Kaprao Gai Khai Dao (กะเพราไก่-ไข่ดาว); spicy basil chicken with a fried egg on top. 🍳 This dish is one of the most popular street foods in Thailand—quick, flavorful, and found on almost every corner. Traditionally made with holy basil, garlic, chilies and your choices of meat, it’s the go-to comfort food for many Thais when they want something fast and satisfying. I used duck eggs for the fried egg, so the yolk is extra rich and creamy. 😋 #siamstr #foodstr

Not the prettiest thing to look at, but meal prep really makes raw feeding easier. I mixed up ground beef, mackerel, ground chicken, duck gizzards, beef heart, pork loin, beef liver, and pork kidney, then portioned and froze it. Having the base ready means I can just add a few toppings later. Today the girls had duck feet and a bit of sweet potato purée to round out their meal. 🦴🍠 Simple, no fuss—just trying to keep things manageable and nutritious. #dogstr #dog

Beautiful day today. 🌞 After a big play at the beach, Little Fart is having her snack bowl – chicken feet, mackerel, duck egg, mulberries, and a bit of ground beef. 🐾 #dogstr
