I bought this pack of Super organic instant soy milk powder from Sri Kota the other day. These day, Baby drinks more soy milk than cow’s milk. She also prefers soy milk to cow’s milk. I wonder which has more nutrients and ’safer’ to drink. Looking at the food label, it looks like formulated milk […]

I bought this pack of Dr’s Choice fenugreek chocolate mix drink from Jaya Jusco the other day. It’s sugar-free and quite palatable. The pungent taste of fenugreek is not strong and if I wasn’t informed that there’s fenugreek added, I would never have known. It’s best drank chilled, with ice cubes or hot like […]

I only drank half a bottle and have 1.5 bottles left. I am one who hates drinking alcohol and would get nauseous, turn red like a […]

My mil loves cooking chicken with Chinese basil leaves or kau chung thap (”Nine-Storied Pagoda” in Cantonese). The minty flavor of the leaves, together with the flavorful taste of sliced ginger and Chinese cooking wine make the Sam Pei Zhi chicken dish (a Taiwanese chicken dish) really delicious.
Last week, she cooked Chinese basil leaves omelette […]
