For this dinner I wanted to prepare a special and sentimental meal, inspired by my favorite dishes that my mother prepared for me while I was growing up. Both sweet and savory flavors will be highlighted in each of the dishes.
The dishes as authentic to my mother's creations/recipes as possible while reflecting my own, personal growth in the kitchen.
We'll be preparing the main courses using Son Fish Sauce. Son Fish Sauce is made using only anchovies and sea salt.
