I tried making Samin Nosrat's braised pork with chiles, and it was good but I put too much of my frozen Kenji chili paste in, so it tasted a bit ... pasty? Like old chili paste from the freezer, for some reason?
So I wasted the summer sitting in my failure, thinking about how to explain it. I sat, and I sat, and then I had to stand and walk around a lot because I had pretty severe sciatica until August, when it became merely tolerable.
I needed the recipe, the slam dunk to restore my confidence, and I knew exactly which one it would be.
