【Braised flat beans in preserved bean curd and anka sauce】
by MaomaoMom
I mentioned that my husband and my son Maomao bought 5 year old Hongzao or Anka sauce (fermented sweet rice with red yeast rice) while they were visiting in China last time. The colour is deep red and it smells so good. I have made a few dishes using this hongzao, they all turn out to be delicious. Today, I made this vegetable dish using hongzao, pretty good too.

The very heart of your writing while sounding agreeable at first, did not settle properly with me after some time. Somewhere within the sentences you actually were able to make me a believer unfortunately only for a very short while. I still have a problem with your leaps in logic and one might do nicely to help fill in those gaps. In the event that you can accomplish that, I will definitely be impressed.
