mag-POLVORON ta karon


Today, April 14th 2020.  
Mommy's birthday on lockdown because of the virus outbreak.

 Inspite of it, entire clan - daughters, sons-in-grace, grandchildren, grandchildren-in-grace, got together online.
Grateful hearts gathered. 
Thankful to the Lord for the life of Mommy G.  

 From the day He made her in Apong's womb, through the many seasons of her life, Daddy God has been faithful.  Father has blessed ahead her journey and written ahead her destination.  Surely, with long life with many good days as He's promised, will He satisfy mommy.
Praise the Lord for each day He made for her.

Sans the birthday cake, Z and I made this polvoron together today.
Z wanted it with Oreo bits. (I pray our time in the kitchen be more of happy memories to her, than of me scolding 😅)

 How timely that there's this mooncake mould from hubbytot.

 We dedicate this one big pretty chunk of floral polvoron to our one and only Mommy, Lola G.

Creamy Miso 🥣

I hated miso soup. And then I loved it ever since. This comfort soup may have a slight tangy taste depending on what type of miso is used. My hubby does not like a hint of sour/tangy stuff. To discover that milk could be added to spin off the taste was a welcome revelation!!! The aroma and taste always takes me back to my days in Japan. My very 1st sip of miso soup was at the canteen of an all-ladies dorm during my very 1st work trip in beautiful Tamagawa prefecture. It was my 1st time away from my motherland, and 1st time to experience winter, at that. To say that I was in a state of culture shock is an understatement. I loved soft fluffy Japanese rice. The roasted flaky saba fish. Ramen noodles. Crunchy karaage. Not miso soup though. I hated miso soup. But that fateful cold night, I have just reached "home" from the 10-minutes trudge from work. A quick change to warmer clothes, I was immediately at the dinner table. The warm soup felt grudgingly comforting. The next spoonf...

perfect fried rice

Batch 1: cook meat sliced to thin cubes (4 pcs pork shoulder or chicken gillet) Batch 2: 1 carrots minced 5 garlic minced 1 onion diced Batch 3: 3 eggs beaten cooked meat in bite-size Batch 4: 7 cups old rice - chilled and clumps separated 2 1/2 tbsp soy sauce 2 tbsp fish sauce 1 tsp mirin 1 tsp sesame oil Add seasoning, to taste: Pepper red chili flakes - optional Add Toppings: 1 green onion, thinly slice You can also add: roasted nuts, sliced pineapples Instructions: In a wok, put 2 tbsp oil then cook and set aside each batch (batch 1 to batch 4) Tips: Use the WOK. Use high heat.  🔥 The thinner the meat slice, the quicker & better cooked it will be. Do not put so much rice at 1 go.  This keeps the wok really hot. Do not put so much sauce or rice will get sticky; you can always add more at the end to taste.
