Have not make this Taiwanese beef noodles soup for a while. So good and quick using instant pot. Didn't go to Asian market so I just use beef chuck. Recipe from thewoksoflife. Instead of using 100 minutes on meat stew, I only did 25 minutes pressure cook and then quick release after another 15-20 minutes since I'm in a hurry to eat.😅
So to sastify my curiosity of second version of heong peng 香饼 without flour, I made some to try. I also made some Taiwan sun cake 太陽餅because I was curious of that as well. Since I'm making the two pastries, I can't leave out the favorite wife cake...lol. I used one dough recipe to make all three pastries. I think this is good idea if you want to eat assorted pastries. 😋
The sun cake tastes pretty good and kids like them too. So sad for my wife cakes got burnt because I was too busy chewing the leaked heong peng fillings and forgot time. Lucky still tasty.🤣😂
Recipe ➡️ Sun Cakes reduce sugar if you don't want too sweet.
Trying new a pastry. This is fragrant pastry, heong peng 香饼. Contains maltose, shallots and sesame seeds in fillings which smell really nice. This pastry is crispy, flaky and also chewy at the same time. Learning something new to sastify my tummy.😋
Made some wife cakes with my home grown winter melon and pineapple tarts for my sister to try and takes on airplane. I told her to share some with my brother...and she left him one tart!🤣 She said I can make more for him later...lol.
This year decided to do a fondant cake for my daughter's birthday. I'm not a fondant fan but sure is fun for the kids since they get to help make the decorations. This is also my first fondant cake. Still need a lot of practices...lol.🥳
Last year I saw the waterlily at Lowes on clearance for only $3. So I bought one home, first I stuck it in my fish tank then there was algea problem so I repotted in another big pot. Didn't really expect much so very surprised to see a flower! Very pretty. Now come the question where and how to store it in the winter so it can survive the snow here.🤯😆
