Chicken Floss Chiffon Cake ~ 鸡松戚风蛋糕


I kick start 2019 with  this  post  ....... Chicken Floss Chiffon Cake. 
This is another cake with a layer of chicken floss and topped with more chicken floss and a sprinkling of lightly toasted sesame seeds.  This time I baked this with my normal chiffon cake recipe.  The recipe is slightly different from the Chicken Floss Cake which I posted not too long ago.  But if you ask me, both cakes are equally good in texture and delicious.  Yumm is the word!







鸡松戚风蛋糕
Chicken Floss Chiffon Cake
Ingredients (A)
  • 5 'L' egg yolks
  • 50 ml canola oil
  • 65 ml milk
  • 40 gm caster sugar
  • 85 gm plain flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 heaped Tbsp peanut butter or mayonnaise (I used peanut butter)
  • Chicken floss
  • Lightly toasted sesame seeds
(B)
  • 5 'L' egg whites
  • 40 gm caster sugar
Method
  1. Beat egg yolks with sugar with a ball whisk, then add in oil followed by milk.  Whisk till well blended.  Sift in plain flour and add in salt and vanilla.  Blend well.
  2. In a clean bowl, whisk egg whites till frothy, then add in sugar in three batches.  Beat till stiff peaks but not dry.
  3. Fold in 1/3 egg whites into the egg yolk mixture, mix well.  Then pour this mixture into the remaining egg whites.  Cut and fold in till fully incorporated but not to overmix.
  4. Pour 1/4 or 1/2 of the batter into an ungreased  21 or 23 cm chiffon cake pan.  Then sprinkle on some chicken floss.   Cover with the remaining batter and tap the pan on the worktop to release any air bubbles.
  5. Bake in a preheated oven @ 170 deg.C for 45 to 50 mins. till golden brown.  Test with a skewer till it comes out clean.
  6. Remove the cake from the oven and immediately invert it to let cool completely before unmoulding by hand.
  7. Microwave the peanut butter till soft and spread on top of the cake.  Then sprinkle on some chicken floss and lightly toasted sesame seeds.
  8. Slice up and serve.

Mini lime marmalade chiffon cake

These little chiffon cupcakes were made with lime marmalade.  Other than orange marmalade I've never come across lime marmalade and so this went into my shopping basket when I was in Perth last.  It's slightly more sour than orange marmalade but it's delicious when you have it with butter or peanut butter slathered on a slice of freshly baked bread or toast!

Kai Chai Paeng aka Little chicken biscuit

K ai Chai Paeng or 'Little chicken biscuit' was one of my father's favourite item to take away whenever we stopped by Bidor, a small town south of Ipoh on the way to Kuala Lumpur, long ago before the North-South Highway came into existence.  Those days, Bidor's famous restaurant, Pun Chun ,was like a half-way house whereby travellers would stop by for their signature 'Ngap thui meen' or duck thigh noodles. Pun Chun restaurant is right in the middle of town along the main road and has been in operation for 70 years and their Kai Chai Paeng were of the thick, doughy type made with lard and some pork but now they also have the thin and crispy version. Another small town, known as Kampar which is nearer to Ipoh is also famous for their thin and crispy version of  Kai Chai Paeng.  However,  I'm not too sure which town is the originator of these 'chickenless', unique but absolutely aromatic 'Little chicken biscuit'.

Braised Pork Ribs with Yam & Wood ear fungus

I bought this yam/taro from a wet market and the lady assured me that her yams are creamy when cooked.  She cut off a very small piece to justify her statement and true enough I saw some powdery substance on the knife.  It can be very frustrating when you end up getting a yam that's firm even when cooked for yams have a hardy taste with a minimal amount of sweetness.  But if you pair it up with some meat and fermented bean curd, the dish will be transformed into a tasty delicacy. Recipe for Braised Pork Ribs with Yam & Wood Ear Fungus Ingredients 750 gm Yam/Taro, peeled and cut into chunks 450 gm pork ribs, marinated with some seasalt 30 gm wood ear fungus, soaked, stemmed and cut into strips 2 pieces fermented beancurd (Nam Yue), mashed with some water 1 small knob ginger, smashed 5 cups water or more 1/2  tsp  dark soya sauce Salt and sugar to taste 2 tsp Shaoxing wine Method In a wok, saute th...
