Apple Pie

We went apple picking the weekend before so we decided to make an apple pie and it was so delicious!

Pork Sung Buns

Another COVID times baking adventure

Homemade Caesar Salad Dressing

Love a good Caesar Salad. Since I love Caesar Salad so much I decided to learn how to make the dressing myself.

Mochi Pancakes

My husband had mochi waffles in Hawaii and really loved it. Now, instead of regular pancakes we make mochi pancakes. 

Hong Kong Style Macaroni Soup

One of my favorite comfort foods. I loved ordering this while hanging out after school during "Happy Hour"  at the local Hong Kong Style Cafe with my childhood besties. Making it at home for the first time. My husband's first time trying this!

Easy Cinnamon Rolls

First time using dry active yeast. It was a lot easier than I expected. These cinnamon rolls were a hit with the husbie.

Buttermilk/Chive Biscuits by Chrissy Teigen

Another recipe from her cook book. Still no cake flour so more flour based recipes.

Bacon-Cheddar-Chives Scones

Still unable to find cake flour so unable to use my yeast. Decided to make this delicious savory scone instead. Only needs all purpose flour.

Garlic- Honey Shrimp by Chrissy Teigen

My husband is out of town. He is usually the cook so I had to fend for myself. It has been a while since I have tried a new recipe. I borrowed Chrissy Teigen's Cravings Hungry for More from the public library. I love shrimp! This recipe reminds me of orange chicken.

Dalgona Coffee

Dalgona coffee was all the craze during the shelter in place. My lovely coworker got some some nice instant coffee so I can try it out myself. My coworker actually made Dalgona coffee more than 30 years ago!

Spam Musubi

I can't believe I don't have spam musubi in here. I made them quite often before medical school. I even made a spam musubi kit for my bestie for her birthday one year. Due to the pandemic, we have lots of can food - one being SPAM!

St. Louis Style Gooey Butter Cake

Can't believe its been an entire year since I have posted. A lot has happened in a year. The most memorable is the coronavirus pandemic. Surprisingly, this is the first thing I baked since the shelter in place. 

Back in medical school, I discovered the Gooey Butter Cookies and have been baking them since. My really good friend Jennifer sent me a box of the famous St. Louis Gooey Butter Cake mix. My husband and I made it for a party and it was a hit. It was freaking delicious. Recently, during my staycation I bought everything to bake the Gooey Butter Cookies but decided to try something new. This is quite good but a close second to the famous St. Louis Cake.
