Foolproof Scrambled Eggs
Back to basic, to make scrambled eggs. It’s easy. But to make it perfect, not everyone can do that. I will show you my Foolproof Scrambled Eggs. The secret for the perfect scrambled eggs is, milk. Not cream, not water but milk! Cream is great, rich and creamy. But, cream makes the eggs too dense and rich. Not good, too rich and you will be off after a few bites. Water makes the eggs fluffy, which is great! But lack of milky taste. Too dull! Not good too. Milk on the other hand, is… perfect! Not too rich and creamy but yet makes the eggs fluffy delicious. Yum!

Japanese Butter Roll (Crescent Roll) バターロールのレシピ
If you are looking for a soft, fluffy yet slightly chewy perfect white bread recipe. This post is for you. You may spread some butter and jam on these Japanese Butter Rolls, make it into sandwiches or just eat it plain. It’s a basic bread dough that you should master it. Once mastered, you could experiment and make different variations. Sure you say this looks like Crescent Roll, but I beg to differ. (Well, maybe you could say it’s my version of Crescent Roll) Recipes of Crescent Roll often result in a more dense and compact bread. Which, I think it’s not look appealing. Basically, not a good bread dough. This is beauty. After all…
Baked Donuts – 3 ways – Just like fried!
Nobody will believe you that these are not fried donuts. But, they are not! They are my baked donuts. Cut off the extra fats, not goodness. I don’t really like the idea of having to fry these a few at one time. Not only it is tedious, but also horrible! I often get those oil splattering on my arm and I can tell you it’s not a funny situation. Why fry when you can bake it all at one goal? My aim is to always do things the fuss-free, calm, and easy way. This recipe is very versatile and you can make many different donuts of your choice. In this…

This simple yet silky dish is commonly eaten throughout most chinese households with rice. Yet, not all households can make this smooth and creamy silky savory custard. What’s my secret? Soy milk, unsweetened. Why? I don’t know, my Aunt told me this and I do as I told. No questions asked. The result is important! Not only it is smooth and creamy, soy milk also adds richness to the flavor. It’s like heavy cream in western dishes!

There were two theories that why we named it, ‘Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcake’. 1) A chiffon cake that was made using Hokkaido Milk. 2) A cake that looks like a volcano that has a snow top and lava oozing out. Either way, this concept was beautifully created in Singapore/Malaysia and became really popular…
