3 hours of cooking to make these things.Randall's didn't any Diakon radishes, substituted a jicama, totally worked.Habanero was a no-go also, so used 3 serranos. So worked.My wife, who is not a big asian food fan, said these were one of the best things, ever.I have not seen her in such a tizzy about food in like forever.Makes the 3 hour cook time worth it.Strange thing, as I taste each component, it is like, yea, ok, nothing to write home about.Even the Vietnamese caramelized pork was good, but epic. But for some reason, you put all these things together, and you all of sudden have EPIC! One of lifes little inexplicable things I guess.My wife is talking about dinner and having these things and we just got done eating 1/2 hour ago.
