needs to switch jobs. Or a better company which has common sense.People are calling her, so they can do stuff properly. It's like she's the one holding ever...

Rhonda SG

no. i always undercook my noodles, rinse them under cold water, then throw them in hot water again. and if i need to, rinse them under cold water again (to prevent them from cooking more)...even the first time i took them out of the water, i already knew it was too starchy.

and erm....who on earth can eat 1kg of noodles in a meal >.<

Bulimics can! Eat, throw up; eat again, throw up again... repeat until entire 1kg consumed.

av98m SG

You forgot!

Me will be back roughly on 15 Feb Sg time.

And we are suppose to go to a lesbian bar!

Wine tasters and connoiseurs follow that principle too, don't they?

Sip, swirl around in mouth to taste, spit out... on to the next wine...

It's actually a smart way of eating / drinking - you get to taste a huge variety of dishes / drinks, but you don't suffer from overconsumption.

Hmm... I think someday, I shall go enroll in some Wine Appreciation course. I don't like hard liquour, don't like beers, but I am starting to like wines.

udontknowme SG

udontknowme SG

Its udon noodles?

I made laksa today for the bozz and bozz lady with vietnamese rice noodles that looks like udon noodles.

Was yours left out on the open air too long?

I also used the Vietnamese Rice Noodles for my laksa! Not the thin, flat types you use for Pad Thai, but the ones that resemble Loh Shee Fun aka Bee Tai Mak but is longer.

Rhonda SG

I really wish I had bought a larger fridge. I think sooner or later, I'll end up purchasing a separate freezer because I need it.

Someday, when I have my own large kitchen, I want to learn bottling, so I can make different types of sambal and vacuum bottle them up to keep well. Can distribute to my foodie friends here!

Can also learn how to make preserves! So all that berry picking will come to good use!

And oh, can make home-made Kaya, the way my ah mah did!

Same Same!

I wanted to buy some kway teow, but the kway teow here looks like rice vermiceli. They are so thin!

And then I was shopping for char kway teow kacap Manis (Sweet thick soy suace) but the ones here all contains wheat, and the bozzes are on a gluten free diet!

This is a gluten free household.

So in the end, didnt make char kway teow today, only made laksa, and the porridge for the bozz lady cos she was sick.

And there was century eggs with japanese ginger slices, glass canned chai sim, salted duck egg & I stir fry some chinese vege, but she cannot take them saying I cook them too sweet.

viciouskitty74 SG

Kayah!!!!

I should go practise making them!

viciouskitty74 SG

and Rhon,

dont borther about that lion fella.

I have a branch of family members like that.

The worse was the very first, very popular, went overseas to study archietecture cousin, we call him 'Little big brother'. "Xiao Ge".

He went off to China and came back the strangest man ever. He can just walk on the pavement, suddenly stopped, scold scold some chinese fella and the movement can be from eye level to machiam that imaginery china fella is kneeling and begging for forgiveness kinda scolding.

kaya easy to make .. i made it when i was in NZ b4 ..

I ask my mum for the recipe ..

Rhonda SG

It requires a lot of patience and work. Plus you have to have a source where you can get hold of fresh coconuts. And a charcoal stove is best. A lot of stirring is required periodically.

I remember grandma putting on a bandana and tying a handkerchief around her wrist to wipe off her sweat when she made kaya. I remember the heat in the kitchen from the charcoal stove. I was always in her way in the kitchen because I always wanted to participate in the cooking process, and I always got too near and then kena stepped on by her or elbowed accidentally. But I was easily pacified... when I kena injured cause I got too close, all she had to do was give me some snacks, and I stopped crying liao. I was born to be a foodie...

Wah... so ba4 dao4 one! This kind of quarrelsome people not good to be around.

udontknowme SG

easy????!!!!

have to stir and stir and stir and stir and stir...omg...my mom made me help her once....never again thank you =P thank goodness im not crazy over kaya. hehe

Rhonda SG

Haiz... they are building so many new townhouses and apartments near me... and I can't afford any of them yet. I want to have a well-equipped and large kitchen so I can cook for friends and invite them over for feasts.

And I also want a generous balcony for BBQ parties!

viciouskitty74 SG

The family I am with now, is looking for another bigger house.

The one they are in now is big already, but they need somewhere bigger so the kids can get a bigger den cum playroom.

Its worse that the living room area is decorated with expensive furnitures meant for entertaining. And the den is like so small! Smaller then my bedroom at the moment!

Rhonda SG

That's what I thought... EASY?!! I remember grandma got flushed cheeks from being near the heat and the almost ceaseless stirring. Once, she tried to enlist my help in stirring, but I was a toddler and even after standing on my favourite red plastic stool, I still couldn't reach it, so I got shooed away.

I remember a large bunch of pandan leaves tied up in a knot thrown inside too. And grandma made grandpa get the coconuts and eggs from the market.

Last time, people do most of the prep work themselves. We had live chickens that grandma / grandpa had to slaughter and I was forbidden to ever watch the process. I always squatted in the bathroom watching the chooks before they got slaughtered and grandma always said, "Siow! The guay will tok your eyes, then you know!" (in Hokkien)
