Pancakes à la Hervé

Jen — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 15:30:13 +0000

It was pancake Tuesday this past week, but since I’m not Catholic, this has less bearing on my life. Except for that pancake part. I’m always down with eating pancakes. So, some time ago, I sat for a talk that Hervé gave for the basics of his (then) new book. There are some very cool [...]

The Basic Cheesecake

Jen — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 05:30:31 +0000

Never having made a cheesecake before (usually my sister’s domain), I settled on Cooking For Engingeer‘s New York style cheesecake to test-drive and tweak. Now, they call for a ridiculous amount of cream cheese and eggs to make a 10″ monster. Since I needed to serve only 5 people, I opted to scale things down [...]

Kueh Bangkit (Coconut & Tapioca Flour Cookies)

Jen — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 14:30:49 +0000

As a child, I remember eating these pale oddly-shaped cookies. Fragrant with pandan and coconut, these dry and crumbly treats end up melting on your tongue. It’s weird and delicious all at the same time. Goes well with a cup of tea – which sometimes becomes a necessity to help wash it down. My mother [...]

Hainanese Chicken

Jen — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 21:17:45 +0000

So, I had spoken of Hainanese Chicken in my last post on making soup. Why? Because for the best version of this dish, you don’t poach your chicken in water, you poach it in soup. However, water does work in a pinch, it’s just not as tasty. Now, I can hear some of you say [...]

My Mother’s Chicken Soup

Jen — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 01:58:56 +0000

My favourite soup happens to be chicken. But the chicken soup I grew up with had little to do with making a mirepoix and is closer to broth – with the addition of ginger, salt, and sometimes, pork. Having chicken soup on my mind, my eyes homed in on $1.29 chicken carcasses at the local [...]

The Annual Matcha Shortbread Production

Jen — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 21:21:45 +0000

Despite the fact that Christmas is over, production of green tea shortbread in my kitchen goes well beyond the 25th. I guess you’d call it my signature holiday cookie as the one year I decided to switch things up and leave it off the roster, all I got were comments noting the lack of the [...]

Chicken Potato Salad with Homemade Mayo

Jen — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 18:26:59 +0000

Peering into the fridge to ponder dinner last night yielded the makings for chicken salad. I was, however, without mayo. But I recalled the recipe on Cooking for Engineers, checked for ingredients, and decided to give it a go. I also pulled my shiny new digital scale from Salter out to measure everything out, so [...]

Confronted with two fats, I found myself in an optimal situation. Who knew?
