Abalone Sauce Use by Christopher Narog: I have been searching for years to find a replacement for the abalone sauce I was using but it is no longer produced. Your online store was the only place I could find that carries a replacement and allows for convenient shipping to my home. Thank you for carrying the Yummy House Brand Abalone Sauce. It is delicious. I made a quick lunch swai and

I love Tom Yum soup.  I took a cooking class to learn how to make Tom Yum soup from scratch many years ago when I was living in Singapore.  The cooking class was fun but cooking from scratch is not my thing.  I find the <!-- /* Font Definitions */ @font-face {font-family:SimSun; panose-1:2 1 6 0 3 1 1 1 1 1; mso-font-alt:宋体; mso-font-charset:134; mso-generic-font-family:auto;

Red Bean Paste Mochi by Phay Ing Landers: I have always like eating anything that has to do with red beans, be it in a form of soup or pastry. I think this must be due to my parents’ influence. In my growing up years, almost every other Sunday my mother would cooked red bean soup. It was compulsory for everyone in the household to have a bowl! I grew up having a bowl of red bean soup for

Sambal Tumis Fried Rice by Phay Ing Landers: Fried rice is a versatile dish.  It is good enough to be eaten on its own, or to be served as a side dish. Just have this wild/crazy idea of using sambal tumis to fry rice and it gave the spicy kick I was looking for! Precooked sambal tumis sauce by Tean’s Gourmet… what can I say? A very handy sauce to have in the pantry, and what better way than to

Penang Prawn Noodle (Har Mee) by  Natasha Lim: I bought Delimas Penang Prawn Noodle Paste from AsianSupermarket365 quite some time ago. This online grocery store is truly my grocery shopping haven.

Indo Mie Dry Instant Noodles (Mi Goreng) by Zahra Kamilla: As I am an Indonesian, when I went off to college, I brought a few cartons of these Indonesian Instant noodles and stored it in my dorm room. When my friends came to visit me, I cooked them these noodles. At first they were hesitant because they were going to eat an instant noodle without water/soup because that’s what they were used to.

I took pictures of this Dragon Beard Candy street vendor in New York City Chinatown last week. Dragon Beard Candy is a traditional Chinese sweet that was invented for the emperor about 2,000 years ago.   It consists of many very fine strands of sugar, giving it the imagined appearance and consistency of a fine beard, like that of a dragon -- hence its name. Have you tried Dragon Beard Candy

I woke up yesterday morning and felt like eating something with Pickled Chinese Mustard (also called meigan cai, mei cai or mui coi in Chinese) for lunch.  This type of Pickled Chinese Mustard that you see in the above picture is used to flavor stewed dishes, in particular meigan cai cooked with meat or meigan cai steamed buns. I wanted some protein so I had it with fish.  The ingredients to

I love to order mussels when I dine out but I am never 100% satisfied with the mussels that I order. No doubt that the restaurants in New York City have many different flavors of mussels but I want it spicy and tastier.  When Phay Ing Landers sent me her Sambal Tumis (Sauteed Chili Paste) Mussels for our $10 gift voucher program, not only that I can't wait to share with you, I also feel like

I did very well at the gym so I pampered myself with a cup of Caribbean Coffee Frozen Yogurt with Canned Lychee (Litchi) at Berrywild Yogurt opposite my gym. I was surprised to see that they have Canned Lychee (Litchi) as one of the toppings. So instead of having fresh fruits as the toppings like I always do, I picked Canned Lychee (Litchi) this time.

When was the last time you had Hot Pot (Steamboat)? I am curious because my youngest sister, some friends and I have Hot Pot about 2-3 times a month. Is it a bit too much or it's normal?We love the food and also the joy of everybody participating in the cooking process. We sometimes like to put a lot of food in the pot at once to let it cook but sometimes we like to cook the food individually.

I like to make my own salad because I literally get to eat whatever I want. What I usually have in my salad are fruits (mangoes, apples, oranges etc.), tofu, grilled beef or chicken, shrimps, hard boiled eggs, avocado, dried berries, onions, tomatoes, cashew nuts...I like many types of salad dressings but my favorite is always Thai Salad Dressing. It is tasty, healthy and light. The Thai Salad

No, this post is about the white pepper that I sprinkled on the porridge.:)When I eat porridge or half boiled eggs, I have to sprinkle white pepper that are imported from Asia.

Mahjong is a game that I love very much but it is also a game that I don't really know the rules. I know it sounds ridiculous. I think I either don't have the talent or it's the environment. I want to blame it on the environment. My sisters and I grew up being told by my father how bad mahjong was. My father got very upset whenever we walked close to my mother's mahjong table.When we grew up,

This year's Mid-Autumn Festival (Moon Cakes Festival) falls on September 22 (Wednesday). I hope it doesn't rain that evening because I want to plan something outdoor with my friends and family.I have been in US for many years but I never forget to celebrate Moon Cakes Festival every year. I think it is an important and meaningful day to spend with friends and family.Every year, we cook a lot of

We added Kam Lun Tai Pandan Egg Rolls on our site today. My mother, sister and I ate it for the first time this afternoon. We like it because it is crispy, light and not too sweet. I can smell pandan while eating the egg rolls. Kam Lun Tai Pandan Egg Rolls come in a very nice tin box. It is an ideal gift for many occasions. It is also very convenient to bring a box to the office and

Did I make the Fried Red Onion (Shallot)? No and no way! I personally don't think it is worth it to make Fried Red Onion from scratch. Well, you can wear a pair of swimming goggles when you cut the onions but can you or should you suffer the heat from frying the onions? Fried Red Onion (Shallot) is an important garnish for all kinds of soup, fried noodles, fried rice, noodle soup etc. You

We added Yee Hup Wife Cake (Lo Paw Bang - Cantonese) yesterday. I can't wait to share with you. Not only because it is delicious but also because the name of this product is very unique. Wife Cake is also called Wife Biscuit and Sweetheart Cake. I found the below information about where the name came from on Wikipedia. 'There are two legends that attempt to explain the origins of the

Char Kway Teow (Char Kuay Teo), a Wok-frying noodles, is a very popular dish in Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. I like both Singaporean and Malaysian versions. Singapore style Char Kway Teow is sweeter and darker compare to Malaysian style Char Kway Teow.We added Prima Taste Singapore Char Kway Teow (Ready-to-Cook Meal Kit) on our site not too long ago and it has been selling like hotcakes!

I had Japanese curry with a friend at a trendy Japanese restaurant in East Village about a month ago. I ordered vegetable curry. I got a very small bowl of curry with very little vegetables in it. The rice came with the vegetable curry was double or maybe even triple the size of the curry. It was an expensive meal. I guess I paid for the atmosphere and location of the restaurant. I wasn't '

 I met a Malaysian couple last year. The wife makes very good Beef Rendang Curry (Dry Beef Curry). Whenever she gives me the Beef Rendang Curry that she makes, she will make sure she gives me some cucumbers. And she will say, 'You don't want to eat Beef Rendang Curry without cucumbers.':) She is right. It is so delicious to eat it with cucumbers. We sell a few different brands of

We added Yummito Puff Biscuits (Original Flavor) on our site today. Yummito? It sounds so Japanese... so what is it? It is actually the popular 'Hiong Piah/Heong Peah/Ma Tai So' that we love. It is manufactured by 'Gunung Rapat Hiong Piah.' I believe many of you have heard about this company.I was a bit hesitant (ok, stubborn) to add Yummito Puff Biscuits (Original Flavor) because we

Delicious Curry Fish Head in less than 15 minutes! I made this dish with the Salmon Fish Head that I bought from a Korean Supermarket. It is very fresh and it has a lot of meat. I rubbed some salt over the fish head, left it for about 15 minutes and rinsed the salt off before cooking. The paste that I used is Tean’s Gourmet Malaysian Assam Fish Paste. You can also use ChanHong Instant

My Sweet and Spicy Pineapple Beef is delicious. It means something to me.I like fruits in my food. I always order Pineapple with Beef, Mango with Beef and Lychee with Beef from a Malaysian restaurant not far from where I live. The sauce that they use to make this dish is sweet and spicy. I pay $9 including tips and tax for a lunch special. I think it is very expensive for the portion that I

I bought some tiger prawns from Chinatown and made them with Instant Crispy Prawn With Cereal Mix. It is

I like rice more than bread. But when I eat Chicken Curry, I find it more delicious to eat it with bread. Today, I am going to have it with the Haogie Rolls that I bought from A&P this morning.My youngest sister is coming over for dinner tonight. She is a very straight forward person. If the food is bad, she will say it. So not wanting to be hurt and take any risk, I made the Chicken Curry

I learned about Guiling Grass Jelly (Guilinggao) from watching a Hong Kong TVB Serial Drama - 'The Seasons (Chinese: 季節)' when I was in Malaysia in 1987. 'The Seasons' was a 389 episode drama series about many unbelievable dramatic things happened in a family that sells herbal tea and Guiling Grass Jelly (Guilinggao) in Hong Kong. In 1987, there was nobody selling Guiling Grass Jelly (

Last September I got a Personal Trainer to help me to 'look better.':) My trainer wanted me to go on a NO oil, high fiber, low sugar and low carb diet for 6 months. During that time, food that I was allowed to eat were very limited. I felt thankful that I could still enjoy the dessert that I love - Konnyaku Jelly. Konnyaku is a very healthy food that is rich in dietary fibers and low in calories.

I was born and raised in Penang. Penang has a lot of good food. I love food. You probably think that it is difficult for people who love food to know what food they love the most. For me, my No.1 favorite food is and always will be Penang Assam Laksa. I like all kinds of Penang Assam Laksa... Chinese style, Malay style... EVERY Penang Assam Laksa. I just love it.The picture here is a bowl

I think Soon Ann Tambun Cookies (Tau Sar Peah - Green Bean Paste) and Nature's Own Ginger Drink with Honey are a very good combination. I like to have them for breakfast, afternoon coffee break or supper. In the winter, I like to have a cup of hot Ginger Drink with Honey everyday. In the summer, I like to add a lot of ice in it. It is very refreshing. To make it more fun, why not make a

This is not a food blog where you can learn cooking from scratch. Majority of the food that I make are from 'Easy to Cook', 'Ready to Serve', 'All In One' ingredients. However, I can guarantee you that they are all very delicious. I do let people know that I don't know how to cook and I depend on all these 'Easy to Cook' 'All In One' ingredients. After they know that, many people STILL think
