    Yes, I do hammer the meat to make it tender. You have a great day too!

    Jeannie
    I used 'Mui yoke' or there's another 'Kar Mui yoke', those parts are very tender.

    I used Kikkoman teriyaki marinade. You can go to this post, I've got a picture of the marinade.

    Ya, it's tender, depending of which part of pork you use.

    Pairs well with rice and bread too!

    If you use the fillet, hammer to tenderise it, it won't be coarse.

    Normally they'll give you the 'yoke ngan'which by right is for pork chop, and has a better taste but tough. I asked for
    'mui yoke' or 'kar mui yoke' which is pork fillet and it's soft. Hope this helps!

  18. Hi,just check with u, if i can use the teriyaki sauce to season salmon. I wanted to pan fried salmon, using teriyaki sauce?
    Thanks!

    Yup, you can do that. Just marinate the salmon with some teriyaki sauce and set it aside for a while. Then pan fry it but not too long, otherwise the salmon becomes tough.

  20. Thanks! I never cook Salmon before but my girl had been asking for it. Will cook and let u know.

Korean Honey Citron Tea (柚子茶 ) Muffins

  I added a few tablespoonfuls of Korean Honey Citron Tea or Yuzu marmalade to a basic muffin recipe and the muffins were delicious. They were soft, nice, not crumbly with a bit of tangy taste of the Yuzu, well accompanied with a cup of piping hot coffee or tea. These muffins taste best when eaten warm.   A few teaspoonfuls of the marmalade mixed with water can be turned into a hot or cold drink to soothe the throat especially if there's a first sign of a cough. Korean Honey Citron Tea (柚子茶 ) Muffins     Ingredients 220 gm plain flour 70 gm caster sugar 2 tsp baking powder 5 Tbsp honey citron tea (Yuzu tea) marmalade 1 'L'egg 160 gm plain yoghurt 80 gm vegetable oil 1/4 tsp vanilla a pinch of salt Method Sift flour, baking powder and salt, set aside.
