We Donated Our Fabled Purple Sticky Rice Dessert To A Worthy Cause
Interfaith Works held their annual Fables & Tables event, and we were there! We brought two trays of purple sticky rice pudding for this fundraiser benefiting low income and homeless residents of Montgomery County.

| They didn't have a sign for our dish, so we improvised |
| Many local restaurants donated their specialty soups. |
| Days later, the good folks at Interfaith called to say that our dessert "was a hit." We plan to contribute again next year. |

Fiesta Asia Was A Blast!
Our crew had a great time organizing the Seven Seas food booth for this event. The planning stages, menu creation, booth design and day-of operations were a great experience for everyone involved.
As expected, the day turned out to be mucho busy. There wasn't much time for pictures except during the initial setup. But when the Chinese god came to dance in front of our booth, everyone couldn't resist dropping what they were doing to watch!

Recipes for Beef and Broccoli
![]() |
| Seven Seas Beef and Broccoli lunch special |
If you're looking for an easy dinner recipe, beef and broccoli is the one. It's hearty, tasty and doesn't take much time at all. Perhaps you already have a recipe that you follow for this dish! But there's one thing that should be pointed out about many recipes online - many of them instruct you to coat the beef in a starchy sauce and deep fry. Why obscure the taste of fresh, quality cuts? Our chef suggests that you skip this step altogether.
This recipe doesn't use the deep-fry method. If you'd like for the beef to be a little more flavorful, marinate it with pepper, soy sauce and a little rice wine before cooking.
And then there's this video that shows you the ultra-shortcut way of making this dish. Video's a bit grainy, but still useful.

This is a great recipe because it teaches you how to make the sauce from scratch. Make sure to read page one of this article on sweet and sour pork to get a full understanding of the author's approach. The comments have some very helpful tips too.

Recipes for Chicken in Black Bean Sauce
This month, we're featuring the chicken stir-fried in black bean sauce, a favorite of our customers. Once again, we've collected a few of the best recipes from around the web to share with you.
If you aren't familiar with black beans, here is a short description, followed by a recipe.
You can view the following video to get excellent step-by-step instructions on cooking chicken in black bean sauce. Note that the chef recommends using wings or dark meat. If you prefer white chicken meat, sliced boneless breasts is the way to go.
And finally, we have one more recipe worth sharing. We like it because it's the closest to our own. This is a non-spicy recipe, but all you need to do is throw in some sliced jalapenos if you want some heat in your dish!
