      I made this again last week and it was well received. Used Cod fillet instead of Salmon.

    Hi Cheah, great idea serving the salmon with this salsa. I love the walnuts added. Would the salsa be good for steamed fish?

      Maybe can try it out, Kimmy. Add in the Salsa once the fish is steamed. I want to try too.

Snow Swallow Dessert ~ 天然野生雪燕

  Natural Wild Tragacanth Gum 'Snow Swallow' or Xue Yan is a gum derived from different varieties of sterculia trees.  It's actually a sap drained from the root of the plant and  the gum dries as it exudes and is then collected.  Once rehydrated will increase to about ten times in size and their white stringy, jelly like strands texture resembles that of the much prized and highly valued bird's nest.  One thing to take note when cooking this dessert is that the gum is highly soluble in water and cannot be boiled too long.
