Been trying to cook recently or rather I should say learn how to cook.  Burnt the guo tie last saturday, the kiam chye has no taste today (cooking bak ku teh).  What else can go wrong?  Maybe the rice will be burnt too later?  It was supposed to be a teochew bak ku teh meal […]

The class today was worth the sweat.

I must blog about this.
One fine day, I attended a baking class because its cheap (at $3o) to learn to bake 2 items, the pineapple tarts and melting moments which I wrote about just down the page.

Finally master the art of baking pineapple tarts and melting moments. Yippie. Don’t you think they look delicious? Wonder why, but I really prefer to bake then to cook .

Yummy yummy pineapple […]

I finally discovered the secret to having mouth watering, freshly steamed guo tie with crispy edges and burnt brown bottom.
3 cheers to Beijing Guo Tie.

My mum bought me a Baun food processor today .  So happy about it.
Came back and tried kneading the dough with it.  Wow, it really works.  I finally made my first batch of Beijing guo tie and jiao zi.  Going to steam and cook them tommorrow, really hope they are edible.  One step closer […]

Yum yum. Added a few dishes to my cooking book today.
I learnt how to cook ginger pork, winter melon soup, oyster vegetable and fried fish today. It may sound really easy to cook all these items but well after the hour plus standing in the kitchen with my mum nagging down my ears […]
