[pct-l] Found some yummy new things at the Asian market

[Diane Soini]

I have always been afraid to try the dried fish products but  
something about these fish looked worth the risk and I was surprised  
how tasty they were.

Yoshihiro I might someday ask you to bring some dried veggies over if  
we ever plan to hike together again. I can make my own dried  
vegetables normally. I just wish I knew what type of vegetable those  
green ones were because nothing I have made has the same attributes  
that yours had. They were so bright green and didn't just turn into  
tasteless mush when rehydrated.
