TOSHI'S NOODLES WITH SEARED SEA SCALLOPS
This is one of my mom's favorite noodle dishes! I've spiced it up a bit with more chili crisp than she would normally use, but it's worth it! The thin spaghetti noodles get an Asian flare, and the mini scallops add a wonderful but subtle seafood flavor. The broccoli is cooked perfectly since it is steamed first.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 6 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- At the same time, combine broccoli with 2 to 3 tablespoons water in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover tightly and cook on high until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain any liquid and set aside.
- Mix soy sauce, mayonnaise, chili crisp, gochujang, sugar, garlic powder, and ginger together in a medium bowl.
- Heat oil and butter in a wok over medium heat until butter is sizzling but before it turns brown. Add onion and saute for 1 minute. Add scallops; cook and stir until seared, about 3 minutes. Mix in steamed broccoli and saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Pour soy sauce mixture over top and quickly add drained spaghetti. Toss until thoroughly combined and cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Sprinkle green onion over top and serve.

SEARED SCALLOP THAI NOODLE SOUP
We loved this! If you want it spicy, leave some of the seeds of the chiles in. The cabbage blends into this soup. Try whatever veggies you like in it. I like to eat the pieces of ginger and lemon grass, but some people might set them aside in their bowl. The lime leaves have a unique and delicious flavor, but if you can't find them, you could try making it with lime zest. If you don't like scallops, shrimp would probably be a good substitute. Based on a Ming Tsai recipe.

MING'S BINGS
Steps:
- Heat the vegetable oil in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the onions, garlic and ginger and cook until the onions are a deep golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a bowl. Add the shiitakes to the same pan and saute until browned, about 5 minutes. Add more oil to the pan, if needed. Add the cooked mushrooms to the bowl along with the edamame, pepitas and salt, to taste. Toss to thoroughly combine and adjust the seasoning. Allow to cool completely.
- For the yuzu emulsion: Add the shallot, yuzu juice, Dijon, palm sugar and salt and pepper to a blender; blend until smooth. Drizzle in the olive oil until thick and smooth. Adjust the seasoning.
- Add 1/3 cup filling to the middle of an egg roll wrapper with the longer side facing you. Wet the edge closest to you with egg wash or water and fold that side up over the filling. Wet the other edge furthest away from you and fold on top of the other edge, creating a seal. Fold the side pieces in towards the middle of the wrapper, resulting in a sealed rectangle. Set aside seam-side down as you repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.
- Heat 1/4 cup vegetable oil in a 14-inch cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the bings to the pan in batches of 4, and cook until evenly golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Serve the bings hot with the yuzu emulsion.

Steps:
- Soak skewers in water 30 minutes.

- Brush a 12-inch nonstick skillet with remaining teaspoon oil and heat over high heat until hot but not smoking. Sear scallops, turning over once, until just cooked through, about 6 minutes total.

Tips:
- To ensure even cooking, make sure the scallops are sliced the same thickness.
- When searing the scallops, do not overcrowd the pan. Cook them in batches if necessary.

- For the spicy Thai rice noodle soup, use a good quality fish sauce and shrimp paste to get the best flavor.
- Adjust the amount of chili paste to your desired spice level.
