Pickled Radishes / Kaiserschmarrn / Lotus Root and Peanut Soup



Blog Post & Recipe: quick pickled radishes


They pickle so quick they can be ready in (almost) a moment, and they have a bright and sweet taste. Each crunchy radish has only a slight mouth puckering vinegar flavour


Blog Post & Recipe: Sunday Brunch: Kaiserschmarrn


To those unaware of this fantastic comfort food, kaiserschmarrn is essentially a thick scrambled crêpe. Tasting primarily of eggs and sugar, this dish is another meal that reminds me of grandmothers everywhere


Blog Post & Recipe: Lotus Root and Peanut Soup


There are two main categories of Chinese soups. The quick boil soup may involve a little sauteing before prepared stock is poured in. Thin slices of meat and vegetables are added to the stock and lightly cooked. Simmered soups take a longer time to prepare. All ingredients are dumped into a large pot and simmered until the flavors meld together and infuse the soup. Oil is not used and therefore there is no sauteing involved.
