As they should cause food is good!

We tend to use kikkomon and siracha because it's what we can afford right now. The plan is to start experimenting when we're in our own house. :) Apartment right now with almost zero room xD

I know siracha isn't exactly any of the three sauces listed. XD
I also use ginger and terriyaki. Cinnamon and.. pffh a name I'm drawing a blank on. Star anise I think. And garlic. >.> I love garlic.

However... I don't think I've ever cooked with a chili sauce or an oyster sauce. Huh.. I'd need to actually look for them. XD

@Shadami: Kikkoman is a japanese brand, if you want chinese taste you might need to look for a chinese brand of soy sauce. See if you can find a cheap version. Where I live kikkoman is actually more expensive than the chinese one I use which is "pearl river light soy sauce". Oyster sauce can be a bit pricey but you only use a smidge when cooking so it goes a pretty long way. Its good for stir fry veggies. Sriracha is kinda a condiment you put in while eating and we dont usually use it while cooking. I use some pastes like this

Pretty sure Lee Kum kee is actually in our grocery store here. And yeah. I eat Chinese and Japanese xD
And we'll... Lots of different foods. Which is why I need my own proper kitchen I need more room for more cultures ingredients for their dishes!!!

Adding those to the list for sure though. I actually just had general tso's yesterday . . . Hubby picked it up to surprise me ... And than we watched a Japanese game show while eating it. Because reasons? XD

Ah haha I am not the kinda person who gets offended by mixing up asian culture. Dude, even asian people keep calling me japanese or korean even though I am chinese. We can't even tell each other apart haha. We are all brothers and we all use chopsticks so let us just accept we are all just as cool as each other.

You know.. I think that's one of the dishes I haven't tried. I'm not sure I've ever had Korean dishes before... O.o

My girls have training chopsticks... And they're very frustrated that they still can't get it right. :3 because mommy and daddy sit across from them and finish a bowl of rice while they're struggling with a piece of chicken xD
Should feel bad but I don't.

I mix cultures constantly. Mix them up as well :x I'm not all that picky. Like music or food. If it's good than I'll enjoy it. Doesn't matter to me where it's from ^^ ect descriptions for other types of things/people/places. XD

I just found it amusing that we were eating Chinese, and watching Japanese. And last night we were watching a French anime.

While I do recommend korean food, they like things extra spicy so be warned haha.

Yeah as a kid the slowness of chopsticks frustrated me alot. LET ME EAT MY RICE GODAMMIT!! I can totally relate to your kids haha but thats the only way to learn. BY HUNGER! Yeah mixing cultures lets you get the best of all the worlds!

A french anime? that sounds intriguing. Whats it called? Is it really made by french people?

As far as I know it's made by French people. It's definitely in French at the very least. It's called Wakfu based off the video game doofus and got turned into a new game called Wakfu xD

All french. :3

I like spicy :3 I'll probably like Korean too than.

Our home embraces all the cultures we can. ^^ oooo ooo have you ever had Persian cooked salmon? It's actually quite delicious. I'm not typically big on salmon but it was good.

Oh goodness I completely forgot it was on Netflix. XD maybe I can catch up with the two newest seasons because I've only seen the first one. And I love it. It's also super kid friendly.
My oldest can't stand anything even slightly scary. So I'm thrilled when I can find even one thing she doesn't run and hide from. I don't know how the show is dubbed though. I watch it in French. I can ... Eh .. sorta understand what they're saying without the subtitles.

Oh dear lord... I'm already suspecting a boy because it's so different than my daughter's... And my oldest is being tested for ADHD in two weeks. Don't Jynx me with a giant xD I'm a tiny 5'3"!! XD

Yay Ama, glad to hear it. :)

I just remembered ive had Turkish food to. Naan bread I think it was. And some other meat dish. But the naan bread. And me. And I love bread.
The bread made me so happy it overshadowed the other thing I had. Also it was eight years ago or so? XD maybe even 10.

I can talk about food. Forever o.o

I don't really know where to get fresh salmon. And I can't catch and cook fish. Or anything.. freaks me out to do it myself. >.>
And venison and elk is so good.

Omg this pregnant woman needs to get her lazy butt out of bed and eat.
