Ever since White Castle introduced the world to their “sliders,” it really is no surprise that these mini-burgers have since become a hit at any party or picnic. As they say, good things come in small packages, sliders are not only visually appealing as appetizers or finger food, but also easily customizable to suit anyone’s tastes. For this recipe, I…
Many years ago, I visited Cambodia and fell in love with the country, its people, architecture (think Angkor Wat!), the exotic and absolutely delicious cuisine. I am so glad that my Malaysian friend Leemei Tan at My Cooking Hut has recently released a cookbook “Lemongrass and Ginger” and there is a Phnom Penh Noodle Soup recipe in the book. (Phnom…
I am so thrilled that I am featured on The Kitchn, a site for people who like to get their hands dirty while they cook. Since Lunar New Year is around the corner, I thought I’d share one of my favorite recipes from my cookbook. A traditional Chinese New Year meal is incomplete without dumplings and a dish of nourishing…
It has become a long standing Chinese tradition to serve a variety of foods that symbolize good luck and prosperity during the New Year’s Eve Reunion Dinner to usher in the Lunar New Year. One example is steamed fish because the Chinese word for fish 鱼(yú) sounds similar to the word 余, which means surplus or abundance. Another is whole…
I am so thrilled that I am featured on Design Sponge, the mega home design website that everyone loves. Since Lunar New Year is around the corner, I decided to make pan-fried pork, shrimp, and cabbage dumplings. I had a lot of fun creating and devouring the dainty and delicious pan-fried dumplings. This recipe will be excellent for Lunar New…
One of the Chinese New Year goodies I love to eat is mini spring rolls filled with bits of pork, chicken, or shrimp floss. They are the crispiest munchies for the festivities and my nieces love making them as they always have so much fun assembling, rolling, frying, and then eating the mini spring rolls. I am happy that my…
Lunar New Year is celebrated throughout Asia, notably China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, and Southeast Asia countries such as Malaysia, Singapore, and Vietnam. Even though I know that Koreans celebrate Lunar New Year, I don’t really know much about the traditions. I invited my friend Hyosun at Eating and Living back to share a Korean mandu recipe with us, as…
Pork is most definitely not just “the other white meat” in China. From the smoky-licious BBQ Pork (叉烧) and Crispy Pork Belly (烧肉) in Cantonese cuisine to the dainty-licious Xiao Long Bao (小笼包) from Shanghai and numerous other famous Chinese pork dishes in between, pork is clearly the meat of choice in Chinese cooking. In fact, the Chinese character for…
I stumbled upon Eating and Living, a Korean food blog by Hyosun earlier this year. I was so delighted that I spent hours reading through Eating and Living, learning authentic Korean home cooking that Hyosun has been making for her family. When it comes to learning authentic Asian cooking, nothing beats learning from a native home cook who prepares the food for…
When I first started blogging five years ago, there were only a few Japanese cooking blogs, and they are mostly in Japanese. Just One Cookbook by Nami is an English food blog about Japanese cooking. As I love Japanese food, I immediately fell in love with the blog. I remember spending the whole afternoon reading Just One Cookbook when I…
