My favorite ice cream? Soft serve vanilla. My favorite cake? White vanilla with white frosting. Is it any surprise to know that I also love "White Pie"?White pie served covered in whipped cream with crushed almonds or pecans on top is simply divine... although you can see in my photo that I had to leave the nuts off the whole pie because my family frowns on such things. LOL. My kids like it plain... but they don't like nuts in their cookies either! (Go figure... they LOVE nuts plain! Especially pistachio's and cashews... but in or on their foods? Not so much.)I like this pie because it combines my two favorite flavors; vanilla and almond. Enjoy!White Pie2 T flour2 T cornstarch1 scant cup sugar1/4 t salt4 egg whites2 c milk2 T real butter2 t clear vanilla (use regular if you do

After our not quite finished lunch, we went to Egg Custard King Cafe Egg Custard King Cafe to get some filler for our tummies. I've never patronized before because the sign looked so commercialized and the beauty of Chinatown is all the unpolished shops. Well not to worry, there was no franchise training here. None of the counter girls spoke English and they could barely describe their products to me in Chinese. Ahh...right at home.Since they call themselves the Egg Custard King Cafe, it would make sense for them to over do it on egg custard. They have honeydew flavored, almond flavored, strawberry flavored, and banana flavored, none of which I tried because it likely has food coloring. (I'm allergic.)I did try their Classic Egg Custard, a Creme Brulee version, and an All Egg White Custard

It's been a very very long time since I last posted due various reasons which saw me stopping blogging altogether. Nevertheless its still a deep passion of mine which I will slowly try to get it slotted back into my weekly schedule from this month onwards.First of all, I would like to thank all those who continuously visit my blogs and left encouraging words and well wishes. As CNY is just a few days away, I would like to share one of my favourite recipe my mom always prepare during CNY and one I look forward to year after year. No doubt the steamed egg custard with pork recipe is as simple as it gets but somehow the thought of it with steamed rice and some stirred fry vegetables just drives me crazy.HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!Ingredients250g Minced Pork - may also use chicken or t

Papaya isn't your typical holiday dish, but then again, who wants to be typical? A flurry of parties and entertaining usually accompany the coming of the holiday season. And whether a dinner party at home or an office party, these occasions usually demand some menu creativity. I say this as one who has a deep emotional attachment to classic shrimp cocktail, but one can have too much of the same
It was waiting for me when I went home one evening. You have some packet said Athamma. I wondered what it was. When I saw a pouch couldn't understand what it might be. Then it struck me, oh yes the packet from Renuka. She had sent a mail asking if I have received the packet she had sent. I was so held up in work, that I completely forgot to ask when I reached home. All were eager to know what it was. I opened and saw some flour in yellow colour. Athamma was all eager to know what this was all about. Hubby explained that its something sent with which I will have to cook something new.Well so easily said, if only he knew my plight. Athamma asked what the content was. By looking at the yellow colour, I said that it might be Basan/Chickpea flour. So many options opened up for me and I could imagine something wonderful other than the regular pakodas or bajjis being cooked up from that. Imagine my confusion on opening, I found myself feeling on a silky texture and knew it was custard powder
About 1 3/4 cups sweetened condensed milk2 tablespoons cornstarch3 eggs, separatedGranulated sugar, to taste4 bananasJuice of 1 lime or lemonFew drops of vanilla extract Add enough water to the condensed milk to make 1 quart. Put the cornstarch in a cup and stir in a little milk until smooth. In a heavy-based saucepan, bring the remaining milk to a boil. Pour into the blended cornstarch, stirring. Return the mixture to the boil again, stirring constantly. Continue to cook until the mixture thickens. Check for sweetness. Beat the egg yolks, with sugar if needed, in a bowl and stir in the hot milk. Mash the bananas with the lime or lemon juice and beat into the custard with the vanilla extract. Leave to cool, stirring occasionally. Pour the mixture into a container, cover and freeze until just becoming firm. Beat well in a bowl. Whip the egg whites until stiff, but not dry, and fold into the custard. Spoon the mixture back into the container. Cover and freeze until firm. About 30 minut
2 3/4 cups milk
1 vanilla bean, split
8 egg yolks
1 1/2 cups sugar
1.Boil the milk, add the split vanilla bean, cover and set aside.
2.Put the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl and beat with a wooden spoon until it becomes thick and creamy, and almost white in color. Remove the vanilla bean and slowly add the milk over a gentle heat. Or better yet, use a double boiler, stirring constantly so the eggs do not stick to the sides. It must not boil.
3.As egg yolks warm and thicken, finally coating the back of the spoon, remove from the heat and strain into a bowl, stirring while it cools.
l The richness of crème à l’anglaise at Collonges comes from Roger Jaloux and the team in the kitchen, increasing the number of egg yolks to up to 20 yolks for 1 quart of milk. “The way that Monsieur Paul likes it,” says Roger Jaloux. When the custard is cooled, in the tradition of Point and B
This custard is a variation of the one my Mom used to make me for a treat when I was in need of comfort food. It has a nice smooth texture and a caramel/butterscotch flavour.I promised Sydney I'd make it yesterday, but my time was at a premium. So I made good on my promise today. The big kids enjoyed it too!Butterscotch Custard6 tbsp granulated sugar1 tbsp light corn syrup3 tbsp water1 cup whipping cream, divided1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar1/8 tsp salt2 1/4 cups whole milk3 large eggs plus 3 large egg yolks, well beaten2 tsp vanilla extractLightly sweetened whipped cream for topping (optional)Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and position rack in middle of oven. Lightly grease 6 six ounce custard cups or eight 4 ounce ramekins. Lay a tea towel in the bottom of a roasting pan large enough to hold the cups compactly, but so they do not touch one another. Arrange the cups, slightly separated in the pan.In a 2 quart saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, corn syrup, and hot water with a w
Here's another of the recipes I associate with fall which might be nice to serve at a Halloween party. The star anise garnish is reminiscent of a spider while not being juvenile in presentation! I made these using the rest of the pumpkin purée from yesterday. I ate one of the six (the rest will be good cold for whomever would like one), had a restorative talk with a friend just now, and I'm feeling full of comfort and joy, following a miserable day and part of the evening. So try these if you need a little comfort food too!Pumpkin Crackle Custard1 1/2 cups heavy cream2 star anise4 cups water1 cup unsweetened pumpkin purée3 egg yolks3/4 cup light brown sugar3/4 tsp ground cinnamon1/8 tsp ground cloves1/4 tsp ground allspicePinch of ground nutmeg1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extractIn a saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream and star anise.

The Pantry Reject challenge continues, and today I used the Mesquite Smoked Maine Sea Salt that started it all. After referring to the Maine Sea Salt Company’s website, I applied about a teaspoon of the salt to a pork tenderloin, and wrapped it tightly to “marinate” for the day.
Rob grilled the tenderloin with no further salting or spicing. It was quite tasty, although I tasted more salt than mesquite. Considering that I still have quite a lot left in the jar, I can try again with more. In all fairness, I never said I was going to use all of these things up this week, just that I would use them.
To accompany the grilled pork, I prepared Barbara Kafka’s Zucchini Custard, which is basically a crustless quiche. We also had a bowl of very fresh heirloom tomatoes from the farmer’s market, roughly chopped with a bit of kosher salt. They would not have won any beauty contests, those immense, misshapen tomatoes with the odd wormhole and black line, but they are t

Greeks view the olive, the bread and the wine as symbols of life. The olive, the fruit of the sacred tree, is processed in many ways. Oiled or vinegared, they accompany practically all dishes.Bread is a necessary accompaniment to all meals. Often bread is served with Feta Cheese. Feta, which has been known in Greece for centuries, always accompanies their traditional country salad.I won´t say this salad is a Greek dish even though many ingredients are items of a Greek Country Salad. I have been to Greece twice and never did I see Feta Custard on the menues. I wrote down this recipe several years ago and don´t remember where it originated. This salad is a meal in itself; tremendously tasty and healthy.INGREDIENTS:Serves 4* 600 g salmon, cut into cubes* salt and pepper* olive oil* 1 large tomato, cut into chunks* ½ cucumber, cut into slices* 1 red onion, cut into slices* black olives* green olives* salt, pepper and sugarCROUTONS:* white bread, cut into roughfly 1 cm cubes* 2 cloves ga
I got my little sandbox shovel and dug with all my might and found this classic from BBC called Roobarb and Custard written by Grange Calveley and animated by Bob Godfrey. Thirty 5 minutes long episodes were made, and each one ran before the news in England in 1974. Roobard was a clever dog who always found a way to get into trouble and was mocked by Custard the cat from next door. This episode reads like a great little book one would read to any young kid. It has grace with the limited animation.

This is one of 哥哥's favourites. He can finish one bowl of the Custard with his rice without me nagging him to eat. It's very simple and I'm sure many of you already know how to do it. This is my version. Ingredients:1 egg2 crabsticksa pinch of salt¾ bowl of water How to do it:Beat egg lightly in a bowlAdd water and mix.Sieve the egg mixture if you want a smoother result.Dice the crabsticks Add the crabsticks and salt it into the egg mixture.Cover the bowl with cling wrap or aluminum foil.Heat a pot of water for steamingWhen the water is boiling, put in the bowl of egg mixture.Remove when egg is set. Serve hot.Note:You can add shitake mushrooms, Japanese fish cakes & chicken too. It's just like Chawa Mushi!!Using cling-wrap or aluminum foil will help have a smooth outcome. It's for the visual effect lah! If you don't mind having a lot of pockmarks on your custard, then you don't have to use this.
I may be lazy to cook (for me and hubby) but the kids still have to eat. Can't ask them to eat Bah Kut Teh with us mah. I'm not so bad lah. But then this lazy brain refuse to come up with something interesting for the kids.Sorry Love, bear with me for this time.What's in this boring meal:Steam (frozen) mixed vegetablesSteamed Egg CustardSakura Denbu Rice
