Yes, it was raining
On the 15th of December which was a Thursday, I went back to St. Elizabeth Hospital’s Laboratory to get my blood drawn for a Ft4 test. I woke up really early that day since I had to use public transportation and I was hoping to stay away from the Christmas traffic rush. By…
Classic Belgian Waffle
For me making a batch of freshly made waffles is very easy. Compared to let’s say cupcakes (I love them in a completely different manner), I’m saying there’s no baking time and hope that each and every piece of cupcake is cooked at least evenly. I know, there are steps that needs to…
Eggplant appetizer
Remember from last time when I made an ocha tamago (black tea eggs)? Well, as it turned out it I made another, this time its completely different. It is still something you can make ahead of time and prep just before the party begins. This one I think is a winner. It was…
chicken liver and innards lomi
How I love soup. Clear. Pureed vegetable based. Without vegetables. Tomato based. Cold or piping hot. I love it. My favourite would always be clam chowder. I make them every now and then but since clams are a bit hard to obtain I turn into noodle soups. Yes, yes I occasionally make instant…
McSpice Fried Chicken
Who doesn’t like friend chicken? Not many, right? The right question should be, “How do you like your fried chicken?” Last year I made a big batch of Southern fried chicken and the result was favourable to those who were able to eat a piece. The procedure included marinating the chicken in buttermilk….
Chicken Curry with vegetables
When I was way younger I used to make a really good and sumptuous chicken curry. As I grew older and rarely cooked because of some undefined state of busyness, I ultimately forgot how to make one. I tried and tried and failed a lot. A whole lot. I’ve gotten to love curry…
Pastillas
I’m not entirely sure if this is the pastillas I first popped into my mouth 20 years ago however since I do not feel like recollecting my summer childhood memories I decided to make my own. 1/4 cup condensed milk 1 cup powdered milk a handful of crushed otap 1 tsp coffee Combine…
Instant Pansit Canton
Instant Pansit Canton with blanched vegetables and poached egg Cook noodles according to package directions, meanwhile blanch thinly sliced vegetables. Mix the seasoning evenly, add in the noodles and the vegetables. Poach the egg. Slide on top of the noodles. That is what I intended to do but the egg slid off to…
Frozen Avocado Milkshake
As of late I haven’t set aside some time to take photos of things I make. Three parties went by and no single good photo made its way here. Ah, it could just be the summer sun. The sweltering days I have to go through. Tsk tsk. Although let me tell you that…
tipsy leche flan
I have been craving really bad for a plate of leche flan in the past few months. It was a thirst that needed to be quenched so when 2 dozens of fresh duck eggs were delivered last week I need not wait longer. As I exclaimed “Oh Yes!” my dismay followed soon after….
