Green Morning Salad

20210207, The Wright brothers succeeded in the first powered flight in 1903. In the hundred-plus years since, people in the West have gone through every kind of aviation incident and accident imaginable. Every time a terrible crash occurred, new regulations were created to prevent similar cases from happening again. When the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration said “all aviation regulations are written in blood,” it was a declaration never to forget the bloody history behind how those rules came to be. Every system in society and in companies runs on rules and regulations built up through repeated trial and error. Even the wildly unreasonable-seeming U.S. presidential election system starts to make sense once you understand its origins and evolution. Still, that doesn't mean it will remain absolute forever — that's something worth staying wary of. The same goes for cooking: a fixed recipe you know by heart is never truly absolute either. You're always adding something new, taking something away, and creating new flavors and new visuals. -Blanch the prettiest Brussels sprouts, green beans, sweet peas, and broccoli in the world in boiling water. -Boil an egg for 7 minutes 30 seconds for the perfect soft yolk. -Heat olive oil in a pan, lightly sauté sliced garlic, then add the blanched vegetables with salt salt salt salt, pepper pepper pepper pepper. -Plate it and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Right before eating, drizzle on the dressing (whole grain mustard, wine vinegar, olive oil). And since it's Sunday — Greek yogurt with #Starbucks #biteshapedkoreanfruitchips.
