This Chawanmushi recipe is always a success and super easy to make. I remember the first time I tried Chawanmushi (Japanese Steamed Egg) – I was in Japan for the very first time, dining at a Michelin star restaurant. It was served in a very small cup with various fillings/toppings. It looked so simple, yet the dish itself looked so fancy and elegant. Fast forward almost 9 years on our latest trip to Japan, we decided to go on a journey to find these Chawanmushi cups and make it ourselves at home. What is Chawanmushi? Chawanmushi is a Japanese egg custard dish that is steamed in a small cup an ..read more

This past Mother’s Day, we made Yuzu Panna Cotta as our Italian-Japanese fusion dessert for our respective mothers. We were inspired to make this dessert because a friend of ours recently had this dessert when she was travelling abroad and it sounded so good that we decided to recreate it. This Yuzu Panna Cotta recipe is actually very easy to make and only requires a few ingredients. However, yuzu juice is not a common ingredient that is easily accessible. We bought ours at a specialty Japanese grocery store but you can easily replace yuzu juice with another citrus fruit of your choice such ..read more

Whenever we wanted to celebrate a special occasion, this would be the place we would go to order our desserts. Ever since that day, we’ve been on a search for a recipe that will produce the same fluffy roll cake texture and a ..read more

One of my favourite soups that my parents made while I was growing up was this Chinese Green Radish and Carrot Soup. When I moved out, I had a hard time finding legit recipes for this soup. There just wasn’t a lot of blogs out there that had good Chinese recipes. Frustrated, I asked my dad to give me his recipe. If you have Chinese parents, you will know that written recipes do not exist. I basically had to sit him down and ask him to break down the ingredients and steps the best that he could. If you enjoyed our Chinese Winter Melon soup recipe, you’ll definitely like this one Key Ingredien ..read more

One of my favourite homemade soup recipes (next to our Carrot Ginger Soup recipe) is this Roasted Butternut Squash Soup. Squashes go on sale around September here in Toronto and to me, it’s a sign that Fall is pretty much here. To be honest, I’m not really sure why I love this soup so much. It’s possible that it’s a simple recipe that doesn’t require that many complex ingredients yet it remains so flavourful. Why this recipe is so unique It uses natural ingredients as sweeteners with a little kick What makes this Roasted Butternut Squash Soup recipe so unique is that by roasting the butternu ..read more

Ever since we stumbled across this easy chai recipe, we’ve been hooked. Yes, it requires a bit more effort to make than just simply adding a tea bag to a cup of boiling water but it offers so much more flavour and depth! It’s better than most pre-made chai mix that we’ve purchased in stores (in our opinion). What is Chai?

It is derived from the Hindi word for “tea” which was derived from “cha”, the Chinese word for “tea”. Since chai literally means tea, it is incorrect when referring to ..read more

Look no further, we have here the best brownie recipe! This brownie recipe has always been a crowd pleaser. In fact, I brought it work one time and I had people chasing me down asking me to send them the recipe. The search for the best brownie recipe For the longest time, I could not find a brownie recipe that I liked. It was either too dry, or it did not have the right about of sweetness. Something was always lacking. One day, I stumbled across a brownie recipe that I figured I’d just give it a try and it ended up being my absolute favourite!
