Are there any other desserts or soup one can make with dried longan and jujubes? Because I just don’t have all the ingredients to make the soup about but I do have a lot of dried longan and jujubes :D Those are about the only “chinese herbs” I have in the house.

Oppss – yes, but not smelly at all because I wrapped them with papers, tapes, and inside container…really no smell ones. Hehe. :P

Chiaza – yep, this kind of dessert is best for hot weather.

Lory – merci. :)

Amy - Yes, peeling ginkgo nuts are really not fun. You can cheat by buying those peeled.

WC - yeah, I have tried the Vnese version, but I do not like seaweeds in my dessert so it felt a little strange. ;)

Anh - thanks. You have great photography skills as well. I love all the beautiful pictures on your site. :)

Kok - yeah, my mother used to make this every Chinese New Year, but now that she is old, she no longer makes it. :(

Kenny - hehe. Yeah, I like taking shots like that; for food, just show a few pieces, for soupy stuff, show half-full bowls. Somehow the pictures look more artistic that way. ;)

KM - I do not know how to cook lak bee th'ng. Yeah, cold is good, put in ice cubes and eat on a hot afternoon, very shiok.

Steamy Kitchen - Yes...you're in Florida right? Time to cook this to cool off the coming summer.

Msiangirl - hmm. I have never tried eating them dried...I prefer them in dessert.

Princess - yep, mata kucing they are. Mau?

WMW - No book deal lah. Where got so fast? Hopefully Kenny will bring some good news soon, hehe.

Tiga - I ended up had to use my pestle to break the shell, and then soak them in water, then peel the skin off with my bare hands. Aiyo, so much work, next time buy ready ones. :P
