Hey Guys!
I finally got my Becker kitchen knives!!! Whoo!!
I whipped out my recipe box and decided I had to make my Great grandmother's Chinese Chop Suey..I hadn't had it in nearly 12 years, so it was absolutely the right meal to test these bad-boys out ;)



So here's the Recipe..

GREAT GRAM'S CHINESE CHOP SUEY

1 Lb. Pork chops cubed







3 Lg Diced onions



3 Cups of Chopped Celery





Full Recipe

I already told you, you will need these (reposted just incase it was hard to follow ;)
**1 Lb. Pork chops cubed
**3 Lg. Onions- Diced
**3 Cups Celery- Chopped

1 Lg. Can of Bean sprouts (Drained & Rinsed very-well) OR you can use fresh bean sprouts, I prefer fresh, and I didn't measure...I just put in a bunch.
3 Cups of boiling water
1 TBSP Molasses
2.5 TBSP Soy Sauce
1 bag of crunchy La Choy Chow mein noodles
Salt & pepper to taste

Brown meat for 10-15 mins. I used olive oil, you can use what ever "lube" you want ;)
add: Salt, Pepper, soy sauce, molasses, water and let simmer for 30 mins..
Then add: Onions & Celery, cook until tender about 1 hour, on low-med low...
then add bean sprouts and simmer another 15-20 mins....

Serve yourself your desired amount in a bowl and add as many chow mein noodles as you like, and enjoy =)

Finished product



I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE these knives!!!! I cut through a stack of pork chops 8 high and it was just like slicing soft butter!! They are so sharp and feel great in my hand. I can't wait to use them on everything...I am tossing my old junk knives asap!
Thank you Ethan for creating some seriously-awesome kitchen tools!!!!

I need to get my wife some of these. But first, she needs a BK15. That looks delicious.
 
Okay, now I'm hungry! That looks great, and glad the knives performed well. Will be trying this recipe out soon I think :)
 
At one time they were discussing a second set in the series. Any idea if this will come to fruition?
 
That looks awesome! I have been eyeing those knives for my kitched for a while now.

Thanks! it was! I doubled the meat and "broth"..and didn't quite double the veggies, but there were more than required. I honestly didn't measure that stuff. I have a hard time just sticking to a recipe, if I think it needs more of something I like in it ;)

Thanks. Sorry the photo quality sucks...it's hard to take good photos inside, when it's dark and under incandescent lighting =/ The knives were awesome!..Chopping the onions I was like, "onions?...what onions?--haha!" VERY-VERY SHARP!.......I hope you like it, when you try it!

That looks yummy; and that Becker knife set is the bee's knees; they love them in Peru (my MIL & BIL).

 
I haven't been able to use them that much yet, but I destroyed a pineapple with one the other day.. Sharp as hell, light and balanced in the hand.. they cut like a laser through everything I have tried them on so far.

Thank you for the recipe, I will be trying it soon.
