![]() ![]() Transfer the tofu strips to a plate and set them aside. The trick to cutting tofu by not breaking it is to use the ‘minced’ action, chopping it with an up-down movement, not slicing it. Then use a chef knife to it into slices and then julienne it. I usually buy the firm tofu and cut it carefully into two. The ideal tofu for this soup should be soft, but it can be challenging to handle. Wood ear fungus has a crunchy and slippery texture which is quite distinct from any other food ingredients I have ever known. Cut the wood ear fungus into fine julienne. Drain and remove the hard luster in the center. The fungus will expand in size and turn soft once it is fully hydrated. You must soak the dry fungus with water, just like the dry shiitake mushroom. It should be available in the Asian market near you. Word ear fungus (wood ear mushrooms, black fungus) is an ingredient used in many Chinese recipes. I remember a Chinese chef mentioned on a TV program that cutting it lengthwise instead of crosswise can increase the crunchiness. You can increase the amount if you like the crunchiness of the bamboo shoot. I use about two tablespoons of bamboo shoot slices. You may also be able to get it online.Ĭut the bamboo shoot into thin slices. I am using the vacuum pack bamboo shoot imported from China, but I know that some places sell it in cans. Bamboo shootīamboo shoot is the essential ingredient of hot and sour soup. Cut the mushrooms into thin slices as the dry shiitake, minus the steps of soaking it. The best alternative is button mushrooms. You can use fresh mushrooms as a substitute. You can also use some store-bought chicken stock to enhance the taste. Use it as part of the liquid to make the soup. Tips: the water for soaking the mushrooms has loads of flavor. Remove the stem, and cut the mushroom into thin slices. (Note: they will not be ‘over-soaked‘) Otherwise, soak the mushroom in hot water to speed up the process. If you have enough time, soak it in advance or even overnight. The time required varies from an hour to two or three hours, depending on the mushrooms’ thickness. Soak the mushrooms in water until it is fully hydrated and become very soft and easy to cut. The Szechuan hot and sour soup recipe call for Chinese dry shiitake mushroom. ![]() Here is a list of the common ingredients for this soup. However, tofu, mushrooms, egg, and wood ear fungus can be found in almost every recipe. Just add more of the other ingredients slightly.Īnother version of the hot and sour soup with egg drops Step two- Preparing other ingredients You can omit the meat for a vegetarian version. I am using this method in my Szechuan hot and sour soup recipe. ![]() Marination enhances the flavor of the meat, and the cornstarch can make the velvety meat smooth. You only need to marinate the small pieces of pork for fifteen minutes. The second method is to cut the raw meat into the julienne and marinate it with light soy sauce, oil, and cornstarch.Place the meat on the chopping board and cut it into julienne. Remove the pork from the pot, and keep the water as the stock for making the soup. You can put the whole piece of meat into the boiling water and let it boil until it is cooked. There are two ways to prepare the meat.Use the pork loin and breast if it is chicken. You need some lean meat to make this soup.

Let’s take a look at how to prepare the Chinese hot and sour soup in detail: It is way better than many substandard hot and sour soup that is merely a tasteless, gloopy mess of cornstarch paste. This Szechuan hot and sour soup recipe is very close to the original hot and sour soup in Northern China, although I have left out ingredients such as ‘black tofu’ (see section 2 below), which is too exotic for most people. Make it at home to warm your family (and their hearts) with this utterly delicious soup with the iconic flavors of Northern Chinese cuisine. You only need twenty minutes to prepare it. The flavor becomes even more complex with the inclusion of bamboo shoots, dry mushrooms, and wood ear fungus and finishes with a beaten egg poured high above the soup to form multiple small egg ribbons floating on the thick soup. Chinese hot and sour soup 酸辣湯 is a traditional northern Chinese favorite packed with the acidity of Zhenjiang vinegar, the white pepper’s spiciness, and the sesame oil’s nuttiness. ![]()

![]() ![]() If you were using any kind of program with layers, just take out the layers that should appear below your character. However, some of that stuff shouldn't be background at all! In fact, it should appear ABOVE your character. When I do, I reflect the image of the graphic so that it looks like a different graphic was used, neato! With all my objects added to the image, here is what it turned out looking like:ĥ) So, that's all good, you've got your background. I also try not to use the same graphic more than twice on a map. For me, I like to fill up all space that I know my character cannot walk. Do it as much as needed until you have everything you want on the image. Since you are not restricted by tiles or amount of graphics per tile, you can add what you want, where you want! Simply copy a graphic you are using for your game and take out the background color. Some of the shadows might be hard to notice, but will be easier to see once you add more stuff to the map.Ĥ.3) All that is left is the simplest, but probably most time consuming part. I'm not going to pretend to be good at making shadows, but parallax mapping allows shadows so easily it is hard to pass it up! Just take a tool and darken areas you want to look like they are in the shade/shadows.įor this map, I made shadows at the top and bottom exits, as well as on the right side along the trees. After that, I shade the outer treeline with the same dark green to give it a more fading look.Ĥ.2) Next, I want to add some shadows to the floor. Using the tools of my program, I changed the remaining outer brown to a dark green. Doesn't give the feel of a deep forest and doesn't cover all the brown. Personally, I'm not entirely pleased with how that looks. By placing trees around the outside of the map and covering as much brown as possible I get a more forest like feel. I do this in multiple stages, and I'll show them to you in order so that you have a better idea of what's goin on.Ĥ.1) First, I want to lay down my treeline. Anyways, some of the graphics I ended up using for this map include:Ĥ) Use the graphics you have and the tools in your editing program to finish your map. You should have these available already either on the chipset you used or elsewhere. I used photoshop since the layers feature it has is extremely helpful for this, but many other programs (including even MS Paint) are acceptable.ģ) Compile some graphics that you want to use on your map. Mine ended up looking like this:Īt this point, it really doesn't matter how good the map looks, because you can fix it all later! Save your image and move on to the next step.Ģ) Open your map in an image editing program. For RM2003, those dimensions are 320x240 pixels. Make sure the dimensions of the screenshot taken are the same as the dimensions of one screen of the game. When you are done making the map, take a screenshot of it. You DO NOT need to detail this map, just use regular tiles to create the shape of the map you desire. If you want to know where I ripped them from, I will tell you so that you can get the original graphics for your own needs!ġ) Start by making a tiled map. As an additional note I would like to clear up now, please do not take the graphics I post here as an example and use them in your own projects, as they are edited from the originals specifically for my own project. For the example here, I will be using the program RPG Maker 2003. In this tutorial, I will create a parallax map for my own game. It allows perfect positioning of desired things, as well as shading/shadowing/outlining that traditional tiled mapping does not. Using parallax mapping allows the addition of more items/objects/plates/armors/swords/muffins/cups/etc to be placed on tables/shelves/racks/etc than tiled mapping with fixed graphics would. An example of a map where Parallax mapping would be beneficial is a shop. ![]() Movement and Eventing may still be tiled depending on the game making program used, but your graphics are not! Parallax mapping is especially useful for maps where having graphics be tiled can create a huge limitation. Now that I weaseled that bit above into the topic, we can move on to the good stuff: Parallax Mapping!įirst: What is Parallax Mapping? Basically, it is using a background as the map, and forgoing the use of tiled mapping. Even though it is dead, I wanted to make something for it anyways.

Of course, they must remember where their food is hidden, so these birds have a well-developed hippocampus and excellent spatial memory.The Black-Capped Chickadee hides seeds and other food items to eat later. This requires a whole lot of food, and fortunately, these birds have a clever way of finding a meal even in the dead of winter.īlack-capped Chickadees collect and store food in caches in the warmer months to see them through the winter. These birds spend the night in thick vegetation and cozy cavities to shelter from the elements.Įven with good shelter, Chickadees need a lot of fuel to stay warm, and researchers in Alaska found that they pack on (and lose) ten percent of their body weight each day in winter. To keep warm and conserve energy, Black-capped Chickadees fluff out their feathers to trap body heat while allowing their body temperature to drop at night.Īn insulated roost site is essential for their survival, particularly on long winter nights in Alaska. Surviving the northern winter poses a great challenge for a warm-blooded animal that weighs less than half an ounce.

Do Black-capped Chickadees live in groups? ![]() ![]() ![]() The brain case contains and protects the brain. The space inferior to the zygomatic arch and deep to the posterior mandible is the infratemporal fossa. The shallow space above the zygomatic arch is the temporal fossa. The zygomatic arch is formed jointly by the zygomatic process of the temporal bone and the temporal process of the zygomatic bone. Both the temporal fossa and infratemporal fossa contain muscles that act on the mandible during chewing.įigure 7.5 Lateral View of Skull The lateral skull shows the large rounded brain case, zygomatic arch, and the upper and lower jaws. Below the level of the zygomatic arch and deep to the vertical portion of the mandible is another space called the infratemporal fossa. On the lateral side of the brain case, above the level of the zygomatic arch, is a shallow space called the temporal fossa. One of the major muscles that pulls the mandible upward during biting and chewing arises from the zygomatic arch. Thus the temporal process (anteriorly) and the zygomatic process (posteriorly) join together, like the two ends of a drawbridge, to form the zygomatic arch. It is formed by the junction of two bony processes: a short anterior component, the temporal process of the zygomatic bone (the cheekbone) and a longer posterior portion, the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, extending forward from the temporal bone. The zygomatic arch is the bony arch on the side of skull that spans from the area of the cheek to just above the ear canal. Separating these areas is the bridge of bone called the zygomatic arch. Lateral View of SkullĪ view of the lateral skull is dominated by the large, rounded brain case above and the upper and lower jaws with their teeth below ( Figure 7.5). The superior nasal concha is located just lateral to the perpendicular plate, in the upper nasal cavity. It is much smaller and out of sight, above the middle concha. A third bony plate, also part of the ethmoid bone, is the superior nasal concha. Located just above the inferior concha is the middle nasal concha, which is part of the ethmoid bone. The larger of these is the inferior nasal concha, an independent bone of the skull. When looking into the nasal cavity from the front of the skull, two bony plates are seen projecting from each lateral wall. Each side of the nasal cavity is triangular in shape, with a broad inferior space that narrows superiorly. The upper portion of the nasal septum is formed by the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone and the lower portion is the vomer bone. Inside the nasal area of the skull, the nasal cavity is divided into halves by the nasal septum. The 22nd bone is the mandible (lower jaw), which is the only moveable bone of the skull.įigure 7.4 Anterior View of Skull An anterior view of the skull shows the bones that form the forehead, orbits (eye sockets), nasal cavity, nasal septum, and upper and lower jaws. In the adult, the skull consists of 22 individual bones, 21 of which are immobile and united into a single unit. The rounded brain case surrounds and protects the brain and houses the middle and inner ear structures. The facial bones underlie the facial structures, form the nasal cavity, enclose the eyeballs, and support the teeth of the upper and lower jaws. ![]() It is subdivided into the facial bones and the brain case, or cranial vault ( Figure 7.3).
