In his GrubDiet, brywashing recipe-tests his croquettes, spoils his mom with a breakfast of migas with lump crab, and gets dim sum after drive-through voting
Bryan Washington amongst the curry bread and migas. Illustration: Eliana Rodgers “Probably everything,” says Bryan Washington, the Houston writer, when asked what he likes about Japanese food. Growing in Houston, he says, you feel like it’s just normal to have “eight cuisines in arm’s reach,” and Washington is a writer whose writing often explores food — whether achiote or Japanese curry bread — as well as queer life and his hometown.
I’ll order the shredded chicken bánh mì most days, but, honestly, I think that the croissant sandwich from My Baguettes, with egg and paté and the rest of the fillings, is easily a top-five sandwich in the city. Easily. But I always end up passing through at 3 p.m. or 4 p.m. and by then they’re out of croissants and it’s always the same routine. I’ll show up and ask for a croissant and they’ll say, “No, we don’t fucking have anymore because you’re too late.
Dinner was breakfast cheeseburgers and fries from M&M Grill, takeout. M&M Grill, they’re really rad. They’re Arabian-influenced American and Mexican food, but they also do Tex-Mex well, too, and their meat is halal. The breakfast burger is really just a cheeseburger with an egg on it. But it’s a solid burger — and, frankly, I am just an egg person.
There’s a super, super-solid potato korokke recipe over at Just One Cookbook, but I’ve been pulling from croquette recipe on Martha Stewart’s site, too. So I’ve ended up with one that’s like a variation of Nami’s recipe from Just One Cookbook, and a variation of the Martha Stewart recipe, and I use a variation from Jo Cooks, just mixing and matching details. I’m trying to figure out how to take different components from all of them and make something that works for me.
I usually have tortilla chips in my pantry, and they’re just chilling, waiting for something to happen. And then I had lump crab leftover from the croquettes, so I used that as a protein base and made salsa de aguacate. I moved apartments fairly recently, I guess a month and half ago now, and that experience was actually the seventh level of hell, but my one housewarming gift to myself was a Magic Bullet.
