i've not forgiven him for turning 2 huge sri lankan crabs into 6 half-filled shotglasses of "crab salad" things
just a sliver of crab in each shotglass.. he could have just used crabstick coz it was filled with other crap and sauces in there...

Wah piang eh!!! 3kg???? That's a monster duck. Are you sure it's not a turkey?Originally posted by the Bear:no haf lah

Well, I will look forward to a peep at your masterpiece. I think it will taste good. I mean the ingredients used, I can imagine it is mouth watering. The trick I guess would be the texture of the duck, yah? -
Wah, skeujin........so clever one. Yah lor...........flame oxidizes aroma, right?Originally posted by skeujin:the best way to get rid of the rectal fragrance is to light a match.

the bigger and fatter the duck, the better the texture.. seriously!
the fat is what makes the meat tender..
anyway, you can't see this but the hack "french chef" is trying to make a version of peranakan food.. desecrating it
but gotta say, i like his kitchen knives.. usually when i'm in the kitchen, i use 2 knives only.. a chopper and a huge knife... i'm too lazy to sharpen the other knives -
it's the phospherous and sulphur in the match actually
flames from a bic lighter doesn't do anythingOriginally posted by littlestream:Wah, skeujin........so clever one. Yah lor...........flame oxidizes aroma, right? -
Oh, are you watching Iron Chef?
Knives? I like Hankel brand the best. I have a number of knives but not a very good user as I honestly do not know which do what.
I just categorize them according to food, eg meat only, veggie only, fruit only.
In fact, when I cooked Hainanese chicken rice? I do not know how to chop the chicken. Also, concern about the splitter splatter of oil/blood (if any). So I used scissors. So, there you go...........boneless chicken rice. 
Aiyoh, seven morning eight morning talk about food, including me posting at the food forum IS making me HUNGRY!!!!
Time to put kettle to boil to stir up a hot bowl of cereal. Be right back.
Hey, my little cubicle is turning out to be a mini kitchen. The kettle actually sits on my desk. Now, if only I can find myself a cheap mini electric steamer. That would be perfect! -
i'm pretty good with knives but don't know how to chop chicken or duck
anyway, get a little personal crock pot/slow cooker thing... put all the stuff in when you start work.. by lunchtime, you got great soup -
You bastards are making me hungry! And there's no food in the kitchen dammit!

you take the big chopper. must be HEAVY one.. put your chopping board on the floor.. (over newspapers you laid out before hand)
Then you aim... aim one time.. aim two time.. THEN YOU CHOP! Cannot be 'gentle' one... will just shred the meat.. must be ONE TWO THREE CHOP! -
I'm too tired and sleepy to walk out.Originally posted by littlestream:

Will probably nod off soon, skeeping at 2am yesterday was a very bad idea.
need for sleep tonight shall win over hunger. -
yeah.. i know about the "kah kah lai".. but i usually turn it into mincemeat or a mess anyway...
i've never been schooled on where to chop and what shape or whatever...
my sister is great at that tho'... but she cannot cook duck
so usually i cook, she chopOriginally posted by ShrodingersCat:From a Real Hainanese:

Great idea, Bear. I saw it on sale at Walmart. Under C$8. But I didn't buy it 'cos I don't know what to cook in it. I was thinking of steamer 'cos I can steam veggie, which I like. And also, pau. Here ah, we are quite lucky. Get to eat Taiwanese stuff, Hongkong stuff. The Taiwanese pau is really good, especially the Taro pau. The taro is very generous. I can eat SIX in ONE sitting.Originally posted by the Bear:i'm pretty good with knives but don't know how to chop chicken or duck

Anyways, I will give serious thoughts. Maybe I can make my own veggie soup.
Now, if I get rid of the printer, I can even place a toaster at my desk. -

Wah, ShrodingersCat, you sure sound like a pro man!!! But I really very 'gentle' one lah. When my mum-in-law sees me do the dishes, she said "can use strength, the plates won't hurt". -
Yeap, the body usually gives us signs and punish us if we misuse it. I like staying up too (sometimes) but I try to maintain a healthy schedule lah.Originally posted by av98m:I'm too tired and sleepy to walk out.
