Food: Fruits & Jelly

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

 Right after I close the lid of the soup, I proceeded to prepare some Konnyaku Jelly. These 3 packs of fruits were great bargain! More than enough to make Konnyaku and they cost less than 1/3 of what I normally spend on fruits for the Konnyaku, and best of all, they tasted real Sweet!

:D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Leftover fruits for my snacks… it’s Mine… All MINE!

Food: Honeyed White Fungus Thong Sui

The weather is crazy these days, and it’s always good to pamper your loved ones and your good self with some homemade thong sui every once in a while. 

This thong sui is really nice, whether taken hot, warm or cold.

The ingredients as below. The sequence to throw the ingredients into the pot as numbered. After ingredients 1 - 5 are in the pot, keep boil in slow fire for about one hour before throwing in 6-7.

 

 

Then Voila! :D

 

Food: Konnyaku Jelly Obsession

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

I was obsessed with Konnyaku Jelly the last week. I was pretty stressed up at work and I found peace in making Konnyaku Jelly, buying the ingredients and finding cute little jelly moulds.

With these cute jelly moulds, how could I not experiment with new flavours and ingredients?

Yeah, it was all so fun, the process of making Konnyaku has kept me sane the last weeks. Thank God for this new found hobby. :)

Btw, Konnyaku is super high in fiber and it’s a super healthy dessert.

Food: Konnyaku Jelly

Sunday, May 24th, 2009

I was hanging out at Starbucks with the boy and friends. The weather was hot, as I was browsing thru the Facebok, I saw somebody’s pictures of Konnyaku Jelly. It spurred me to make my very own Konnyaku Jelly. Haha. I rushed out to get the Konnyaku mixture and some jelly moulds. Too bad, the minimarket only have one type of jelly mould.

 

My very first Konnyaku Jelly and many more to come! ;D
