J. is home! This is one of my favorite things, vegetables wrapped in quickly seared meat and dipped in sesame oil and salt, he used to make it for me after longs nights of work on hot summer days back in Queens. We have a new set up now that we've moved, I found this Wagner's fat free fryer at the goodwill and we sit at the counter across from the stove so he can cook the meat as we go. Being cooked for is such a wonderful thing, isn't it?
A quick note on cast iron, Wagner's was founded in 1881 by Bernard and Milton Wagner, Sidney, Ohio. This was maybe 15 years after Griswold was founded in Erie, PA, but Wagner's eventually bought out Griswold and now both are owned by The American Culinary Corporation, looks like they still do some manufacturing in the U.S., but the website is a little vague. In any case, the old stuff works perfectly and only seems to get better.
