Fresh Fig On Toast
Fresh figs are seasonal (even in Singapore) which is why I grab punnets when I see them on sale. And that is also why you’ll see figs in my meals more often than not. Anyway, most people may eat them just like that or just like how I incorporated it into my chia seed pudding....
Nuts About Almond Butter
I’m going slightly nutty now and have been experimenting with different nuts to churn various sorts of nut butters. This time round, I made Almond Butter! Almond is less oily than cashew, which is why I had to add in coconut oil to encourage the natural oils to be released but the result was still...
Homemade Cashew Butter
I decided to make my own cashew butter because: It’s so simple Contains less sugar and preservatives than store bought ones Cheaper The recipe is so easy that you would start making your own nut butters and will last you for a good week if you eat it everyday. What you’ll need: 200g cashew nuts...
Okinawa Gelato In Singapore
If you were at Raffles Place this week, you would’ve probably noticed this pop-up store selling Gelato from Okinawa! This is the first pop-up store for this brand of Okinawan gelato and what immediately caught my attention were the interesting flavours such as Tofu (uh…how would this taste as a frozen dessert?), Tankan Sorbet, Purple...
Great Ice Cream And Waffles At Creamier
Waffles with ice cream (Sea Salt Gula Melaka, Black Sesame and Pistachio) I love myself a good waffle and ice cream. And I don’t mean those soft excuses of a waffle often sold at $2 at a nearby neighbourhood bakery (although those are quite tasty). I like them crispy on the outside but fluffy on...
Great Japanese Tapas At The Public Izakaya by Hachi
When you think of izakayas, one would normally associate it with beer, noise and lots of tapas-like servings of food. Normally yakitori. And that is the basis of The Public Izakaya by the Hachi group, located at 100AM in Tanjong Pagar. On a warm day, you may want to sit inside the air-conditioned area but...
Cooking Dinner For Parents’ Birthdays
I decided to slave away in the kitchen to celebrate my parents’ birthday and upon request of my mother, I made my signature Century Egg Tofu as an appetiser. I also added a bit of shirataki noodles tossed with fish roe but it wasn’t quite mentaiko, so the taste was a little disappointing. For mains,...
Are You Gluten-sensitive?
I’ve been talking to a lot of people about how I found out that I’m slightly gluten sensitive and why a lot of people probably are but simply do not know about it. After every such conversation, most of them would ask me to blog about it and so here I am! I must stress...
Korean Style Spicy Grilled Pork
Pardon the ugly photo. I took this photo only after my mum ate it and I had no chance to plate it properly. Anyway, this recipe is super simple and you can use it on chicken or beef as well. In this case, I used leftover pork collar shabu shabu slices but it’s traditionally made...
