Post #275,219 by Andrew Grygus 12/8/06 9:30:33 PM Reply	So as long as I was out and about . . . . . and we'd been talk'n about 'em, I stopped by the Philippines and got me a couple of pounds of pig ears. A full report soon - but tonight I've got a whole bag of octopies to deal with. [image\|http://www.clovegarden.com/ingred/img/ap_ears02d.jpg\|\|\|\|] [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]

Post #275,780 by Andrew Grygus 12/14/06 10:46:29 AM Reply	I figured someone would point that out. Actually I'm thinking of changing it from "Appetizer" (title in the recipe it was based on) to "Snack" because it really is more appropriate as a snack. [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]

Post #276,016 by tonytib 12/17/06 8:49:37 PM Reply	Yummy! says my wife. She says that Chinese wouldn't use coconut milk. --Tony
Post #276,029 by Andrew Grygus 12/17/06 9:45:29 PM Reply	That would be right. This recipe is Cambodian, but I've found very similar recipes credited to Thailand. Haven't come across a Chinese one of this sort yet, though I'm sure it wouldn't include coconut milk. The pig ear salad (Report #1) was credited as Chinese and is very good.
