Cream Sauces

Wow, it's been a while since anyone has posted! Here are a couple of sauce recipes I've been using for a while.  They fit my definition of modular food since they can be used in so many different ways.  Also, they are concepts rather than strict recipes, and thus many variations are possible. Part of why I'm listing them is to make sure I still have the recipes should the original sites disappear. The first one is a wine cream sauce, more or less based on the recipe I found here .

I chopped two scallions and some garlic, which I fried first (to flavor the oil). Then I pan-fried the two tuna pieces, turning them over as they cooked on each side (as the marinade started caramelizing on the pan I scraped it off and added it to the scallions and garlic I pulled out earlier) . I added sesame seeds (partially for looks and partially because they're good) and a little bit of the pickled carrots and daikon radish (which didn't entirely go together with the different strong flavor of the tuna and marinade).

This is my dinner tonight: rice with a pork bun, 1 chopped scallion, 2 chopped tomatoes, some pickled daikon radish, some kimchi, and a bit of oyster sauce and sambal oolek. It was really good! And I prepped everything in less time than it took for the rice to cook. I don't usually arrange it this nicely or necessarily put in all of these ingredients.
