Many of you might remember my posts on Homemade Organic Soymilk plus some related recipes using soymilk and okara (soybean resides) which I have shared last year.

LEMON BUTTER CAKE WITH CHIA SEEDS AND PISTACHIO NUTS
Both Pork Belly and Pork Trotter are my favourite parts of meat which I love to use them for either Braised Pork Belly In Soy Sauce (??) or Ginger Vinegar Trotter (???). To be frank, I love the soft and jelly like "fats and skin" on them which makes it a good source of collagen in some sinful ways. There are many ways to braised pork belly depending on what other ingredients you pref
I have seen many friends in my facebook list making either Radish Cake (???) or Yam Cake (???) before and during Chinese Lunar New Year period. And usually these are the auspicious steamed cakes to be served to the visiting guests as compared those western cakes.

A few days back during our trip to Chinatown, I saw a stall selling Osmanthus Chestnut Cake (?????) at a price of S$8.50 per box which gave me a shock. The price that they are selling per box is more than enough to replicate 3 similar boxes if you know how to make it at home. Although my recipe here might not be as authentic when compared to those sold outside in the shop but at least this i

Silver Pomfret (Yin Chang - ???) or White Pomfret (???) is one of the seafood choice which is popular among the Teochew (a dialect group).

Last Saturday evening, a few of us get together to have an early Chinese New Year dinner over at my place.

This is my first time attempting Chinese New Year steamed cake as compared to my usual new cookies and dishes. But since I wanted sometime fusion rather than the traditional Steamed Prosperity Cakes (Fa Gao - ??), I decided to use a sponge cake recipe and give it a twit by adding instant coffee powder and brown sugar to achieve a similar colour like Fa Gao. On top of that, I also decorate
Not long ago, I come across a new seasoning from Japan known as Shiokoji (?? - salted malt rice) which was given to me by another food blogger friend.

My family loves granola and our my favourite granola supply come from "maameemoomoo" who always surprise us with her innovative flavoured granola like honey, pumpkin and chocolate. And since we have missed out Sherie's pumpkin granola during Halloween orders, I decided to try making something similar to satisfy our craving.

Steamed Herbal Chicken is always one of the most easiest dish to prepare because what you need is to assemble and wrapped the chicken with pre-packed Chinese Herbs (recipe 1) or Spices (recipe 2), STEAMED it for at least 45 minutes to an hour depending on the size and parts of the chicken used.

And to obtain the vibrant colours, you could mix your food colouring with some water before adding to your favourite pancake mix
