Christmas Week Recap

How soon the holidays just walked past us, and without noticing it at all December is coming to an end pretty soon. Two things I will never look forward to, one being lab practicals, and second lab reports! Instead of doing my holiday assignment as I should, I would rather drown myself in previous weeks' memoirs.
While I update with my recent posts, I'll also slip in some flashback photos from last week for reminiscence purposes. 
Here I shall note my interesting ventures in the kitchen during Christmas week.

Day 1: 
My first attempt in steaming egg tofu. Not bad at all..
Ingredients:
1 egg
1 Tbsp light soy sauce
1 Tbsp white wine
1 tsp pepper (to taste)
1 cup soymilk

Directions:
1. Beat eggs well until frothy then incorporate the rest of the ingredients.
2. Add chopped spring onions on surface *optional
3. Steam on low heat for 20min.


 Homemade tofu accompanied by Kimchi Pork Stew with Meehoon.
Yummy-licious!~

                              



Making Kimchi for the first time, using "alternative" ingredients that are under my budget in the UK. Ready for fermentation:

Took about a week to ferment to get the right hint of tangy and spicy level. But 3 days is all it really takes. 
To be continued..
