Notes:
*This dish has a good bit of garlic, red pepper and ginger... feel free to lower the amounts to suit your tastes.
*Use the Asian pear puree OR the brown sugar, not both. 
*Try the lower amount of brown sugar first and taste before adding the entire amount. Again, adjust to your preference.
*The sesame oil really is only for flavor, it can be omitted if you would prefer.

This has to be one of the most difficult posts I&#39;ve ever written. I&#39;ve been working up to this, sitting down and writing about my friend Elle, for more than a week now and it&#39;s every bit as hard as I imagined it would be. There is so much I want to say, so much I wish I could still say to her. I only hope I can express here, with my words, what a treasure she was to so many of us.
