Mouthwatering

Just made the red soy sauce that forms the first part of this recipe.

Although it's essentially just soy sauce and sugar with some spices and a dash of rice wine, I am itching to get on to the noodles and the remainder of the sauce, not least because I just bought a pot of Sichuan peppers and am already addicted to the lemony tingly buzz they give!

Out tomorrow and Thursday nights - how will I resist till Friday?!
