This from the man who joined me in the great apple snail adventure,
some say precipitated it.

There was once an article (nonfiction I think but am not sure)
about a graduate student at one of the southern state universities
whose research subject was roadkill. She would scrape up various
highway pizza and subject it to tests, catalogue it up by species,
location, cause of death, and so on, and if the animal were
sufficiently unputrefied, she would grill it for dinner. Most
interesting. I think it was in The New Yorker.

I thought that recipe looked kind of interesting.

So we're not twins separated at birth after all.
Brothers, perhaps.

Pearl Balls
cat: starter, quaint
servings: 6

1 lb ground pork
1/2 lb fish paste
2 Tb dry shrimp, soaked and chopped
2 Tb finely diced carrot
2 Tb chopped shiitake mushroom
1 Tb chopped parsley
1 Tb chopped scallion
1 ts chopped ginger
1 Tb soy sauce
1/2 ts salt
1 Tb cornstarch
1 egg
1 cup glutinous rice

Soaked rice in cold water for at least an hour.

The ground pork has to be moistened with 2 Tb of water.

Then rest of the ingredients except the glutinous rice
are added into the pork mixture and mixed well. The
mixture will be very sticky. You have to wet your hands
before you start forming the meat balls as they are very
sticky. Make meat balls of the size of walnut for faster
cooking. The meat balls are then rolled in the glutinous
rice until they are coated on all sides. When all the
meat balls are formed, place each pearl ball on a small
piece of cabbage and arranged them in a steamer. The
pearl balls have to be steamed on high heat for 20 - 30
min depending on the size of the pearl ball.

This is a very simple dish to make and you can get your
kids to help out rolling the meat balls in the glutinous
rice. I will surely make this at home. Thank you again
Winnie for your recipe.
