Sandro Jube and Lorenzo Pelayo of Honolulu Cafe

1 English muffin
2 slices baked ham
2 slices smoked turkey
2 whole eggs for poaching
slices of potato and bell pepper for garnishing

Hollandaise Sauce
3 egg yolks
1/4 lb. clarified butter
1/2 c. white wine
1 bay leaf
4 pcs. peppercorn
1 Tbs. white vinegar
1 Tbs. lemon juice
salt & pepper to taste

Hollandaise Sauce:  Stir egg yolks and lemon juice vigorously in medium saucepan over very low heat.  Add butter and white wine and stir constantly with whisk, until melted.  Add remaining ingredients and continue vigorous stirring until all butter is melted and sauce is thickened (be sure butter melts slowly so eggs have time to cook and thicken sauce without curdling).  Keep warm.

Benedict:  Split and toast English muffin halves.  Cook ham and turkey slices until lightly browned and place them on each English muffin half.  Prepare poached eggs (add white vinegar to boiling water to hold egg together when poaching).  Top each English muffin half with one poached egg.  Spoon warm sauce over eggs.  Garnish with slices of potato and bell peppers.

Lemon Grass Tofu
From the Kitchen of:
Joan Namkoong, "Go Home, Cook Rice" Cook Book

20 oz. firm tofu
2 Tbs. lemon grass, finely minced
2 Tbs. shallot, finely minced
2 tsp. garlic
2 Tbs. fish sauce
2 tsp. brown sugar
2 tsp. turmeric
1-2 Hawaiian chili peppers
3 Tbs. oil
1/4 c. la lot, finely chopped
1/2 c. roasted peanuts, chopped

Drain tofu well.  Cut into 1" thick slices and gently press between paper towels to extract as much moisture as possible.  Cut into bit-sized cubes.  Mix lemon grass, shallot, garlic, fish sauce, sugar, turmeric and chili peppers.  Add tofu and gently toss mixture to coat the tofu with the marinade.  Let marinate for at least an hour.

Heat a non-stick skillet and add oil.  When oil is hot, add tofu and pan fry, turning the cubes so that each side gets nicely browned.  This is where patience comes in.  When all the tofu cubes are nicely browned, add the la lot and peanuts and gently mix together until leaves are wilted.  Serve immediately. 

Note:  La lot is the Vietnamese pepper leaf available in Chinatown stores.  You could use the purp0le stemmed Thai basil in place of la lot.

Perfect Pork Chops
From the Kitchen of:
Joan Namkoong, "Go Home, Cook Rice" Cook Book

1/4 c. kosher salt
4 c. water
4 pork chops with bone, about 1/2 inch thick
salt & pepper
2 Tbs. oil

Dissolve salt in water.  Place pork chops in baking dish in a single layer and pour salt water mixture over.  Brine should cover the pork chops completely; if not, add a little water.  Cover and refrigerate 3-4 hours.  Preheat over to 325 degrees.

Season pork chops lightly with salt (the brine will add salt to the chops) and generously with pepper on both sides.  Use a heavy 12-inch skillet (or any heavy pan that will hold the chops in a single layer) that can go into the oven.  Heat ski9llet over medium-high heat; add oil.  Place pork chops in hot pan, searing one side, about 3 minutes, until nicely browned and crusty.  Turn over and sear other side.

When chops are seared, place skillet in oven and continue to cook for about 18-20 minutes or until meat thermometer registers 145-150 degrees.  Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes before serving
