Delicious Vietnam #3 – Flourless cassava cake

I was not able to make it for last month’s edition of Delicious Vietnam. My site was down most of that fateful Sunday with server issues. It was hard and frustrating trying get onto those ‘tech support’ via live chat. It was a feeling of hopelessness. I have since changed my host and extremely happy and satisfied with it. So far it has been smooth sailing. I DO NOT recommend anyone to sign up with Fatcow!

Turkey and shitake mushrooms stew

It turned out to be a really interesting market trip. Despite the very cold and wet winter morning, the turn out at the Collingwood farmers market was quite amazing. And I almost always bump into fellow food loving friends. As we walked in, we bumped into lovely @essjayeff with her bags full of fresh local ingredients. She gave me some useful updates about chestnuts and quinces. The two ingredients that were high on my hit list.

Bakers Delight – Olive sourdough bread

There has been a surge in sourdough lovers in recent months. Many that I know have made their very own starter dough. I have jumped onto the bandwagon by buying sourdough instead of my usual loaf of multi-grain bread. So when Bakers Delight contacted me and asked if I wanted to try their new and soon to be released sour dough bread, I said YES YES and YES please.

Meatless Mondays #27 – Miso barley risotto with tempeh and tofu

Why waste time while waiting for public transport to be on time? I spent it on thinking of recipes and dishes that I wanted to cook or test on the weekends. And sometimes, I spend time daydreaming that I am in South of France, visiting the countryside and not a care in the world. This was one of the dishes that I concocted while I was packed into the train as usual, like a sardine.
