I made another attempt to use the massive box of bamboo I was mailed, this time some of my friends and I decided to do a Phat Thai type of dish with quail eggs and the bamboo. I would say it worked out better than my first attempt but the street guys in Thailand are still the kinds of Phat Thai. My two biggest problems this time around were that I cut some of the bamboo pieces a bit too large resulting in some that didn't cook right and the noodles were overcooked. I should have paid more attention to the noodles when I bought them because they cook in literally 3 minutes. It feels like by the time I dump them in the hot water they are ready to eat. They are faster than even the pot noodle type things. I did get use to the strange internal film of the quail eggs so using them was much easier this time around. I would say this attempt was more successful than my last attempt, even if it doesn't look pretty.

I hope there was only one worm. Otherwise, someone got a little extra protein in his/her meal.
