En-Chang : Roughly 400 years ago, en route to Japan with the world's first rifles, Portuguese sailors landed on the shores of Formosa(Taiwan). Refueling and bartering with the locals, these western sailors left a piece of their culture behind here on our shores.
These En-Chang sausages are served with sliced garlic, cilantro and julienned scallions.

I grilled up some steaks with our new DiLonghi indoor grill set tonight. The rear two slabs of sirloin were dusted with my buddy Dave's rub(I will write more about this soon. Man, is it good), and the two in front were just seasoned with salt and pepper. The meal was a hit and we had enough leftover for a kick ass lunch tomorrow... Planning on making some wraps with alfalfa, avocados, julienned cucumbers and sliced shell steaks. I think a shiso/ponzu sauce drizzled over the goodies will help bind all the flavors together. OOOH, lunch is going to be so good.
