The fruitwoods (apple, cherry, peach) are excellent for smoking pork and poultry. Thus “apple smoked” bacon, as opposed to say, hickory smoked bacon (which is more common in the American South). FWI: Alder is used for fish, and for steaks, you use something stronger such as Mesquite or the oak from old Jack Daniels barrels.

One possible correction, however. The "one-crop" in your "one-crop scallions" means something more like "thin strips" as the kanji for "tanzaku" is probably "短冊・短籍・短尺" 例えば、葱（ねぎ）を短冊（たんざく、または、たんしゃく）に切る Other than that, a mouth-watering good and amusing read. Cheers, Andy <span class='jfriedl'>Sounds good to me. I had to look up a number of the words (including, to my embarrassment, the "fluffy" of "fluffy egg filling" — I should have know ふんわり). The "one crop" thing made no sense to me, but who knows, neither does "applewood smoked...". Thanks for the correction. —Jeffrey</span> Sounds good Jeffrey. One possible correction, however.

That would be my choice in a heartbeat. Well, frankly I thought the sound of the Quarter Italiano sounded fantastic. That would be my choice in a heartbeat.
