There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Crispy Sesame Pork Salad - Testing

 https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/food-recipes/a31838/crispy-sesame-pork-recipe-2-ghk0415/

1 - Can't remember exactly but I made this a while back and I'm pretty sure we liked it. In wanting to cook locally, I don't yet know if I could make soy sauce, but I have learned that sesame can be grown here.

3 tbsp. soy sauce
2 tbsp. brown sugar
1/3 c. panko bread crumbs
2 tbsp. sesame seeds
1 egg
4 thin boneless pork chops (about 1 pound)
3 tbsp. canola oil
5 oz. salad greens
1 c. grape tomatoes, halved
1 c. shredded carrots
  1. In a small saucepan, whisk together soy sauce and brown sugar. Heat to simmering on medium. Simmer for 2 minutes; cool.
  2. On a medium plate, combine panko and sesame seeds. In a shallow bowl, beat 1 egg. Dip pork chops in egg, then coat in panko mixture.
  3. In a 12-inch skillet, heat canola oil on medium-high until hot. Fry chops 3 minutes per side or until cooked (145 degrees F). Drain on paper towels; cut into cubes.
  4. In a large bowl, toss salad greens with grape tomatoes, carrots, and pork with soy reduction.
