gateau a la sour cream + blueberry custard
[ezcol_3quarter][/ezcol_3quarter] [ezcol_1quarter_end] For someone who’s technically unemployed, I don’t know if this would violate the definition of such word but actually, for the past 2 weeks, I’ve been enjoying some sort of a “holiday”. Well… a holiday on house-arrest if you will, but nonetheless, a holiday. Despite the… minor inconvenience that we’re currently bound to the last…

CANTONESE-STYLE ROAST PORK BELLY
[ezcol_1third] On the 20th of May 2013, I made a recipe that up to this day, more than a year later, still haunts me. It was a glorious, beautifully crafted specimen of pork belly confit, originally created by the Thomas Keller of whom I almost always, agree with. There was nothing fundamentally wrong with it.…

GARAM MASALA YOGURT-CREAMED SPINACH
[ezcol_1fifth] [/ezcol_1fifth] [ezcol_3fifth] SNACK ON THIS WARM AND TANGY YOGURT-CREAMED SPINACH. I’LL BE RIGHT WITH YOU.

Nowadays I seek recipe-inspirations like a stinking camel seeks for water, only minus the ability to regurgitate.…

STACKED GREEN PIG SANDWICH
A SANDWICH THAT HAS NO STORY… IT’S JUST REALLY TASTY. YESTERDAY, the last day of Jason’s 3-day-business-trip to Hong Kong, Jiaozi/Dumpling pulled a performance of his life at 10 in the morning, in a theatrical masterpiece called – This Is It.

FIRE AND ICE, AND EVERYTHING NICE
[ezcol_2third] the refreshment of slippery noodles in an icy tangy broth… gliding down with sizzling pork fat on a stick. BEST ARGUMENT A SUMMER CAN HAVE. [/ezcol_2third][ezcol_1third_end] SEEMINGLY, if you think that I have lost my mind and regards to the diversity of this blog somewhere in the frozen land of popsicles, gelato and gelato plus…

MOSCATO AND SPICES POACHED PEAR GELATO
[ezcol_1half] [/ezcol_1half][ezcol_1half_end] CAN I JUST SAY… ONE OF THE TASTIEST GELATO I’VE HAD TYPICALLY, this is where I enter the room, neck stretched and knuckles cracked, oozing a bit a creepy calmness to suggest the looming turbulence, and ghostly hovers over the keyboard… Inhale… Then screeeech, obnoxiously, on the worst, ever! weekend-getaway from hell, carrying a Dumpling that was dangerously “soupy” and could burst…
