Instant Breakfast Pack

 
What I like about the Instant breakfast packs in Taiwan is they have more variety and  are Healthier. For example, this popular brand in Singapore, did not carry this Purple Rice with Purple Yam cereal pack which is believed to be more nutritious. 
Hope they could bring in more healthy choices to Singapore soon...
 
(A Taiwanese friend commented she don't understand why the Singaporeans like the liquid M pack which even their local children no longer take, a S'porean friend gave quite an interesting reply: because we are so lazy even to bite so the liquid form is preferred :P)

Gong Cai 贡菜

I had been looking for this pickled vegetables from Taiwan ever since I tasted it since my 1st visit to Taiwan 10 years ago. However latter trips to Taiwan & local supermart selling Taiwanese products to find it was fruitless. Finally, this round, I managed to find it again at a vegetarian supermart in Taiwan (GaoXiong 's WenShu Supermart by Ven Huili's centre).
The pickled vegetables is very well-marinated with sesame chilli oil & crunchy with bite.
Goes well with noodles, porridge, or rice. The vege is actually 帝皇苗.
Hopefully it will be available in Spore soon.

Sweet Noodles

In a recent puja attended, there was a small bowl of sweet noodles  (Tian Mee) served during lunch which brought back good old memories when we were young and our parents used to bring us to visit a temple at Punggol which served the sweet noodles on their Sunday lunch to the public. S enquired mum if she could remember and mum replied that the sweet noodles is a birthday celebration noodles for the Teochews and served monthly at the temple. Only then do we know this Teochew tradition and a request was made to cook this noodles on next birthday.
Hence, this bowl of simple but full of love and sweetness noodles shown above materialised.  
Simply drop a cube of coconut/brown sugar into a pot of water to boil and then put the fine eggless noodles (boiled & drained in advance) into the pot to cook. No other ingredients needed. Well, now I understand why in the lunch, only a small bowl about 2 mouthful is distributed for each to taste, because taking one normal portion bowl can be overwhelming! 2 mouthful is just nice...Good things need not be much, so just cook one small bowl for all to share the sweetness...  :-)
May All Be Well !!!
May All Be Happy !!!

Vegetarian Salmon

 Wow, what is this fishy dish doing at my vegetarian blog?
No worries, another brilliant mock product found ~ Vegetarian Salmon...
After trying the vegetarian salmon at Zen Japanese Restaurant, I had hunted for quite a while before I saw this real resemblance frozen product selling at a bean curb stall at Red hill Lane market (79 Redhill Lane, abt 1 bustop away from Redhill MRT station) located beside a pork stall. Not daring enough to try it raw & preferred cooked, Mum steamed it as if it was real with odour removers such as ginger, parsley , tomatoes and plum sauce and also added my favourite lady-fingers.
No, it doesn't have cooked salmon tough meat texture but more to soft sashimi bite which was also why recommended way on package is to defrost naturally & slice & dip with wasabi.  It's a hugh pack that one can cook several portions with and the price definitely cheaper than the price of a plate served in the restaurant. :P
The stall also carries a number of products from the Malaysian Everbest vegetarian brand which among them included the mock Dongpo meat (with no porky smell! ) and mock Braised Duck.
