SPICY MUSSELS WITH GINGER
Quick note: Do not clean the mussels or even take them out of the fridge until you've prepped everything else. They are living creatures-treat them gently and with respect. Mussels get a pan-Asian treatment-and a bit of heat.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large, lidded skillet or sauté pan over medium flame. Add the peppers and sauté, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, 2 minutes or so. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring frequently, for about 1 minute. Add the soy sauce, sake and star anise and stir to combine.
- When the liquid begins to bubble, add the mussels. Cover with a lid and cook until mussels open, about 4 to 5 minutes. They are now cooked.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer mussels to a bowl to stop cooking (otherwise, they will become tough). Divide among shallow bowls and spoon the pepper/ginger cooking liquid over them.
- Serve with pieces of baguette for sopping up the delicious, spicy liquid. (There will be lots of liquid, and it will be thin-the mussels release the liquid they're holding in their shells when you cook them. With some recipes, notably European ones, you'll reduce the liquid or thicken it with corn starch-no need to do this here.)

BIG JOHN'S FRIED HAM AND CHEESE SUB
"Big John's Steak and Onion" is a local favorite fast food franchise here in Flint, Michigan. The food is made to order on big grills right in front of you, so there was no real mystery for me to figure out how to duplicate this at home. I just wanted to share this wonderful sandwich with all of those outside of Flint who may never get a chance to enjoy these tasty, addictive sandwiches.

Steps:
- Slice sub bun 2/3 way through lengthwise and spread open.
- Spread bun with mayo.
- Heat un-oiled skillet or grill to medium heat.
- Arrange two ham slices on grill overlapping slightly to match the length of bun. Layer The remaining 2 slices on top of the first 2. If ham starts to stick to pan, squirt on a little water around the edges. When lightly browned on bottom, turn over and top with cheese. When second side is light brown, and cheese is melted, place ham onto bun cheese side up. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, onion, and Italian dressing. Enjoy!

BIG JOHN'S OYSTER MOTOYAKI
MOTOYAKI - Japanese cusine. baked food topped with a mayonnaise-based sauce served in an oyster shell. Anyone who's ever been to a Japanese restaurant or Sushi bar and had this baked treat wishes they had a recipe that they could use at home. I've created this from several recipes I managed to acquire from local Japanese restaurants. Now all you have to do is learn how to shuck a large oyster that really doesn't want to let you in.

Steps:
- Scrub the oysters and rinse them off. Shuck the oysters(if you have trouble shucking try placing the oysters in a shallow pan of boiling water for a minute first). Always smell a freshly shucked oyster to make sure it's fresh, they should have no strong odor and merely smell like the ocean.
- Once the oysters are shucked, remove the meat and rinse it off in cold water, being sure to remove any shell fragments or the beginnings of a pearl(these are murder on your teeth) Discard the flat top half of the shell and keep the lower bowl shaped half, rinsing them out as well. Dry the meat by patting between 2 paper towel sheets.
- Whisk the mayonnaise, miso paste and peppers together. Set aside.
- Lightly saute the mushrooms and onion in butter to remove some of the water.
- Heat oven to 400°F.
- Spread a thin layer of mayo mixture on the bottom of each shell.
- Cut the oyster meat into 4-6 pieces per oyster and divide evenly onto the shells.
- Divide the onion & mushroom mixture evenly into shells and top off thickly with the mayonnaise mixture, being sure to completely cover everything in the shell with the mixture.
- Place the shells on a baking sheet or arrange them in a shallow pan as level as you can.
- Place oysters in the oven on the top rack and bake for 20-25 minutes. The tops should be a nice dark brown when done.
- Remove oysters from the oven, placing a small amount of Masago on each and serve with a lemon wedge.
