Let's discuss our "secret" weapons in our kitchens. The tools and ingredients we absolutely cannot live without and more importantly, where to acquire these items cheap!



So carrying on from Willystyle's Chinese Chili Oil thread, I'll talk about how I add spiciness to my dishes.


To me, these are my requisite heat sources in my kitchen:



I use the same brand as Willystyle's, but their other type, it's a finer grind.
I actually don't use sriracha and I stopped using cayenne months ago.

I use the first 2 sauces pictured here when making mapo tofu for my non-fancy meals.
The gochugaru (korean red pepper powder) is my substitute for cayenne, I find it has a much more lively flavor.

The one pictured is a fine grind like cayenne.
I also have a coarse grind I use in spicy Chinese and Korean cooking.

In an asian kitchen, I think these are all pretty standard, nothing special.
T&T will have the first 2 for sure, but will probably hella overcharge for the gochugaru.


Gochugaru and sea salt is heavily used for kimchi, so it's actually quite cheap at H-Mart.
H-Mart is actually your ultimate source for sea salt. They sell in various sacks at 1/4 of the price compared to Western supermarkets.



The last ingredient I use is sacha sauce otherwise known as Chinese BBQ sauce. It's actually not quite spicy, but used similar to the other spicy ingrdients. The name is actually a bit confusing.
Sacha sounds like satay, but is not even close at all. Sacha is deep, meaty and oniony whereas satay sauce is usually lighter in flavor and peanut-based.
And to make matters worse, sacha has nothing to do with Chinese-style BBQ. None of the 3 major items (roast pork, bbq pork and roast duck) use sacha.

Culinary uses: Stir fry and finish with a spoon or 2 of it. Mapo tofu. Hot pot dipping sauce.

Cheap Source: Buy in bulk, it lasts forever. Rice World or Kuo Hua.
You probably won't use it too much in day-to-day cooking, but come hot pot season, you will burn through this. ]]> Culverin http://www.revscene.net/forums/684368-your-cooking-secret-weapons.html For sale only Reggie@FourPlusOne ITR Part Out (remaining parts) http://www.revscene.net/forums/684367-reggie%40fourplusone-itr-part-out-remaining-parts.html Wed, 22 May 2013 10:13:38 GMT Hey Guys,

]]> USED Automotive Vehicles For Sale ONLY JordanLee http://www.revscene.net/forums/684365-2006-acura-csx-w-jdm-fd2r-conversion.html Another quick bodyshop question..LOTUS AUTOBODY. http://www.revscene.net/forums/684364-another-quick-bodyshop-question-lotus-autobody.html Wed, 22 May 2013 07:43:04 GMT I'm currently having issues with settling a deal with a bodyshop and stuck on negotiating, so hopefully I can get some bright ideas/answers from RS.

I've got a referral from a friend of mine and I didn't want to expose this but the shop owner is literally denying/not guaranteeing his work.
This shop was already mentioned on this forum before by another user.
Unfortunately, my car was already in that shop, getting works done while I was reading his thread and I was extremely worried about my car.



I've dropped off my car at 'Lotus Auto' back in November, 2012 and got it back on April 2013.

I've told the new owner(Andrew) to take enough time since I wanted to get the job done properly as i was paying $$$ + I've had another winter beater to get me around.
(wasn't gonna insure my accord till April anyways and he was cool with storing it for me till then.)



Initial deal was:

- I pay 2 ICBC Hit and Run Claim deductables
- and $2000 Cash on top

for the followings:

- HFP Kits molding (front and back)
- Rear Conversion which involves new tail lights, wires, Trunk, Bumper, and HFP Lip
- Rear wing spoiler delete and deck lid spoiler installation.
- Whole Car Re-paint, except engine bay and hood



Fast forward the time, I've picked the car up on April 2nd, 2013.

I gave a full inspection and walk-around numerous of times even before the day when i picked up the key for my car, and on the day, too.
Installation seemed okay, conversion was done properly, and everything else seemed okay except 1 minor gap near the edge of my rear bumper on passenger side.
This gap is still existing, but as i've bought the bumper from NAPA, Not Honda, so i've decided to just deal with it.



The major problem/disagreement between me and Andrew goes here.

I have million rock chips including a penny sized ones showing white primer underneath on my front bumper now.
I started to notice rock chips around 2 weeks after picking up my car.
I've visited Andrew 7 times so far and never hesitated to complain about this, however, it seems like he's not willing to take responsibility for his work.



What He says:

- Brand new paint needs to be properly dried and give it about 90 days.
- Even if i wanted to get 3M clear bra, it needs to be done after 90 days since it's a brand new paint, otherwise it'll bubble. (so, i pick up my car and store it until it all dries out properly for next 3 months or so?)
- Maybe because i'm on highway often (not true)
- Maybe because i drive it everyday (hey, car is meant to be driven)
- Maybe because my car is too low, all the road debris are hitting my front bumper (There're lots of lower cars, being low always doesnt mean to have rock chips all over)
- It's unavoidable (wt....)

at the end, when i last visited him, he said he'll re-paint my front bumper for CHEAP Price.



What i really don't understand is,
My 8 year old hood with stock paint is far better condition than 1.5 months old front bumper with a brand new paint.
It clearly seems like front bumper is literally "chipped out" easily compared to my 8 old beaten up stock hood.
He said it's common for lower cars and i should see more chips on my front headlights/fender areas but I've got 0 chips or dings on those areas so far.



Not to mention, to make things worse;

- There're couple chips on the corner edge of trunk lid,
- top edge of rear HFP lip where it's molded onto bumper,
- little white line crack about 3cm long on front HFP lip corner too.



He explains :

- There may had been something between trunk and bumper where they meet, that's why there's a chip and scratch.
- When bodykit is molded, weather it's factory or not, it has tendency to show cracks when heat or shock is applied.





At this point, I've only paid $600 of ICBC Deductibles and still haven't paid him the rest by giving him complains/excuses about the throughout paint job infractions that I'm not happy about.

He doesn't guarantees his work, nor he's willing to fix this problem properly and to me, it just seems like he's looking for a way out, giving me bunch of lame excuses.

When he asked me to bring the car back on September after my front end is beaten up so that he can repaint my front end for CHEAP $, I've decided not to let this go easy, but kinda stuck on ideas how to resolve this problem.



Any input/ideas/solutions/regal advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading a long story :okay:
