Hello baking



What's for lunch yesterday: Singaporean fried noodles with spicy squid.

We like to celebrate early. Yesterday we celebrated Father's Day early by going out to eat at a HK cafe. My dad loves simple street foods- hence he ordered the wonton noodle soup with wonton and duck. My grandma and I split a fried noodle dish. I don't think my grandma really liked that dish too much.
For dinner we had sushi!!! My aunt makes the cutest and interesting sushi. Inside are: korean pickled radish, chinese preserved pulled pork & avacado. Very healthy and so full of flavor. I am not quite sure what the green sauce on top is; it is sweet though.

Her homemade sushi inspire me to start developing my own reciepes. I got so pumped up that I spent some time looking up recipes. I want to start learning how to bake. This week, I am determine to bake some oatmeal cookie- vegan style.

Vegan cooking is all the rage now. It is basically cooking without processed flours. A much more healthier alternative and a great way to stay off unhealthy carbs. One of my co worker's wife is really into vegan cooking and told me that too much flour can lead to brain degeneration. I am a little skeptical about that. Nevertheless, watch for my post this week when I will be baking vegan oatmeal cookies!!! :)
