I don't think I can put many words down today. I guess it's just one of those days where you're not sure of anything enough to make a definite decision. But I wanted to review the food experiences since the last post, because there is quite a bit and I think it deserves mentioning.
This is the Chinese New Year feast at my aunt's house in which all the separate families contributed their personal signature dishes. As you can see, it was a celebration of colours, textures, smells and tastes that we all devoured happily.
This was my aunt's special Chinese New Year biscuit platter, which consists of shortbreads, peanut cookies, pineapple cookies and pineapple tarts in the center.
My yoghurt cake which I'd forgotten to include baking powder. The result was a dense soya-like cake loaf; not so popular with the household. Nevertheless it was finished within the week.
That month I also made an orange chiffon pie with uncooked egg whites. It gave it a fluffy and light texture, but left an eggy aftertaste. I don't think we managed to finish this one before it went off.
