Tofu Yum

Posted on October 25, 2013 by Victoria Tang

September 21st:

My mom gave me her secret recipe for preparing fried tofu because I impulsively bought fried tofu on my shopping spree in Chinatown. (Just buying what I’m already familiar with.) However, my mom is not so great with giving out recipe instructions. All the measurements and amounts for sauce, salt, sugar, water, etc. were too vague! Thanks, mom. So, it came as a total surprise when I ate my tofu and it was more than edible. It was delicious! (Sorry, I’m lacking a modest streak here.)

Ignore the strand of hair in the bowl of rice. I know. It’s bothering me too.

First attempt at “real” Asian food

Posted on October 20, 2013 by Victoria Tang

On September 8th, I made rice with Chinese sausage and soy sauce. This is an exact replica of food that I used to eat back at home with my family. This attempt to cook was a success. And finally, I completed the meal with a delicious cup of peach iced tea. Miam!
