tart limone

🍋 No bakey-bakey Lemon Tart  🍋


Our Z loves the tangy zesty lemon. Lemon juice, lemon cakes, lemon-pepper chicken wings, lemon Himalayas candies...what else is there? If there's a lemon donut, wow, i'm pretty sure it'll be a great combo for her! Come to think of it, she enjoys "Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events" too.. is it because its lemony?

So for my Z who loves lemons, from a tentative idea, i finally decided to at least try making a lemon tart in our lifetime. And if all goes well, we can add it to the annals of our family history LOL. (I say this because I have lots of misadventures in the kitchen. It takes a leap of faith to try out some new dish, really.) 

The magic of technology, right up there in my Youtube search hits was missevabakes lemon tart video, golden cheerful yellow, no-bake, her recipe beckoned me.

Yep, yep! We whispered a prayer, rolled our sleeves, and marched to the kitchen!

And here's our first version:

Verdict: ETMZ, they all loved it! 😘

Conclusion: 
Best served cold in tiny slices, every now and then. 😍
Some tweaks to hit the spot, but it definitely is up for the go-to recipes for any lazy want-to-whip-something weekend.

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...
