A Journey into Thought & Spirit

Broccolini, Bamboo Shoots + Tofu in Apricot Sauce

10/5/2020

As the weather cools, we appreciate warmer meals that our body craves to keep us warm. However, hearty meals can also be healthier and free of many preservatives. 

This inspiration comes from a vintage 1980's dress I found that is covered in bamboo design.

This 1980's dress is white with a blue fence covered in bamboo, which reminds me a lot of what I see in Seattle. Seattle actually has quit a bit of bamboo growing throughout the city. 

I kept thinking of bamboo, and what to try differently than the traditional brown or garlic sauce. I wanted to create something with crunch but was still healthier and does not include many preservative-based sauces. 

Picture
When you make meals at home, you have the control on what you put into the sauce. This has a similarity to the sweet and sour sauce because of the sweetness of the apricot jam, but made in a much more healthier way especially compared to many jarred sauces. 

​Let the bamboo inspire your wellness and wellbeing. The plant bamboo, also has spiritual symbolism to aide us through this difficult time.

Bamboo is a symbol of strength and health. Bruce Lee stated about bamboo, “Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.”

It symbolizes strength as the wood is stronger than concrete and steel. The bamboo is strong but also flexible. It may sway in a. storm, but often does not break from turbulent times. 

In terms of health, bamboo symbolizes harmony and peace, and also has antibacterial properties.

Broccolini, Bamboo Shoots + Tofu in Apricot Sauce
​
Cook Time: 20-30 minutes
Serves 4

Ingredients:
1 12oz pack of fried tofu (or use regular tofu)**See Note
16 oz broccolini
1 can of water chestnuts, drained and rinsed
1 can of bamboo shoots, drained and rinsed
2-3 tbsp canola oil

Sauce
1 15.2 oz jar of apricot jam
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari
1/2-1 tbsp sugar (optional)

2 cups of rice

Directions:
Begin by cooking the rice in a pot according to the package directions. Generally its a 1:2 rice to water ratio so 2 cups of rice will be cooked in 4 cups of water. 

Saute the broccolini in a pan with 2 tbsp of canola oil for 3-4 minutes.  While cooking, mix the sauce ingredients into the bowl.

From here, if you have room you can add the tofu, or cook the tofu in a separate pan with one tbsp of canola oil, cooking evenly on both sides. 

Next, add the sauce to the broccolini as well as the bamboo shoots and water chest nuts. Simmer on medium-low heat until warm and the broccolini is edible but still keeps a crunch.  

Once the tofu is crispy and cooked on all sides, add to the broccolini and then mix until well combined. Serve over the cooked rice. 

**Note: Fried tofu is found in the refrigerator section at many Asian grocery stores. Also, the jam is often sweet enough and may not require additional sugar, but for those want it extra-sweet can place sugar in the sauce mixture.

LORD ODUME BRING BACK THE LOVE OF MY LIFE
CONTACT HIM VIA: allpowerfulspellhome@gmail.com OR via his WhatsApp Number: +1(331)348-5516.
Thanks to Lord Odume the great spell caster for his marvellous work. My wife left the home after a little misunderstanding for some months and I was worried because it was a little misunderstanding, and I was very certain it wasn't her Will. I kept sending SMS and Emails to her but no reply from her. One Tuesday morning, I visited Google for a research; I came across Lord Odume post that was made. I didn't even believe in anything called magic or Love spell for so long. I hate magic powers but I have no point but to join Lord odume in faith and I heard testimonies of what lord odume had done via love spell casting. From that Morning I stopped being worried about my wife and focused on lord odume instructions waiting for a testimony. Not long after, Lord Odume told me He had done it and I had peace of mind that everything is settled even though my wife was still not with me in the house. Behold, between 24hours which was said by Lord Odume that my wife will come back home, my wife came back home with tears, I had to apologise and she did also, then the both of us reunite together back as lover. I am Grayson Levi from Canada.
Thank you Lord Odume.

I want to testify about Dark Web blank atm cards which can withdraw money from any atm machines around the world. I was very poor before and have no job. I saw so much testimony about how Dark Web hackers send them the atm blank card and use it to collect money in any atm machine and become rich.
Email : carolblankatmcard@gmail.com

Hangout : carolblankatmcard@gmail.com

What'sApp : +393512615163

They also sent me the blank atm card. I have used it to get 90,000 dollars. withdraw the maximum of 5,000 USD daily. The Dark Web is giving out cards just to help the poor. Hack and take money directly from any atm machine vault with the use of an atm programmed card which runs in automatic mode.
