 Recipe for Green Tea Ice Cream

    Ingredients

    • 3/4 cup milk
    • 2 egg yolks
    • 5 Tbsp sugar
    • 3/4 cup whipping cream
    • 1 Tbsp matcha/green tea powder
    • 3 Tbsp hot green tea OR water
    • A pinch of salt
    Method
    1. Mix hot green tea with matcha powder, set aside.
    2. Whisk egg yolks with sugar, till pale and light.
    3. In a saucepan, whisk cream and milk till smooth.  Cook on low heat till milk just begins to foam up.  Remove from heat.
    4. Pour milk mixture slowly into the egg mixture, stirring continuously so as not to cook the eggs.  Stir in the green tea paste, mix well.
    5. Pour mixture back into the saucepan, cook on low heat stirring with a wooden spoon till mixture can coat the back of the wooden spoon.  (Test by drawing a line through the middle of the custard).
    6. Immediately remove from heat, stir for a few minutes so as not to overcook.
    7. Cover with cling wrap, let cool to room temperature, refrigerate overnight.
    8. Churn for 30 mins., in the ice cream maker or according to the instructions of your ice cream maker.

Char Siew Pau ~ 蒸叉烧包

I have been itching to try out a Pau recipe and vaguely remember that I did make it once, long, long ago.  So I  got hold of my old file of recipes and finally managed to retrieve it.  I did it recently and must say that I'm satisfied with the result.  The texture of the Pau was soft and a bit chewy, wholesome and filling too.  Naturally, they didn't look so nice and round like the ones sold in the dim sum restaurants, but nonetheless I think homemade ones can be just as delectable as well.

Kuih Bangkit ~ CNY 2010

I recently made this Chinese New Year cookie, 'Kuih Bangkit' for my daughter to  bring back to Melbourne. As Chinese New Year is barely a month away, thought it best to post it now, perhaps you may like to try it out.  These cookies are not too sweet,  with a tinge of pandan fragrance coupled with a sweet taste of coconut ...... yummy.  They do keep well if they're thoroughly baked and they melt in the mouth!
