Delmonico,

Thanks anyway ... it was great!

TTFN,

I just decided to make it one day in a camp for something different, just had never made it in camp, they went nuts over it and that is one of my most popular "Grandma Foods."  (Not to be mistaken for comfort foods, that's the quick stuff baby boomers Mom's made.  Grandma foods are what us old pharts remember Grandma making from scratch.)

Leeks are great.  I needed an onion for a soup and that was all we had.  It made for a wonderful alternative.

Saw a story on the idiot box that the Mc Donalds in Hawaii have Spam burgers.  Ta each their own I suppose.

Hi Y'all,

I used to fly in and out of Hickam (Honolulu Hawaii) .... and it was the only place that I saw sticky rice 'n' soy sauce with Portuguese Sausage and fried eggs for breakfast ... and Spam as a side dish  ... for breakfast at Mc Donalds!
My moniker is my great grandfather's name. He served with the 2nd Florida Mounted Regiment in the Civil War. Afterward, he came home, packed his wife into a wagon, and was one of the first NorteAmericanos on the Frio River southwest of San Antonio ..... Kinda where present day Dilley is ...

Short of soup, I have eaten with chopsticks.   Back in the 80s I was in college and taking martial arts.  Met all my roommates through the Karate class and we lived a very oriental lifestyle in an occidental world.   
Adding frozen greenbeans to stir fry is a great way to work them in.
I make my own oriental sauce
1 tablespoon Hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
red pepper sauce to taste
1 teaspoon season rice wine vinegar

1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
3 cloves garlic

mix this with anything and you have quick oriental at home.

To tie back to original thread, I peel the ginger and freeze it, works great.   Grind on a box grater or microplane while frozen.
Actually I am 90% sure you can get frozen oriental vegetables in the bag, works great with boneless chicken breasts all stir fried with the sauce above.    I am so cheap I actually save the packets of soy from chinese restaurants, find them out at work all the time.  I have not bought soy sauce in years.  for this I use two packets.
