Exciting Meal at KFCs

Less than $5 bucks and you can enjoy a decent nice meal at KFC. The taste is guaranteed to suit most taste buds as the Colonel really did his research about getting that unique taste like no other. The texture, the color of the chicken, the overall assembly, the hot bun, the price and most importantly the signature taste is truly unique you dont find it at your grandma's or auntie's house. It does not mean their fried chicken ain't comparable its just that overall, a happy fuss free meal is always near you and welcomely available.

Original recipes or hot and spicy make up kid's favorites or maybe grandma's favorite.. The servers are always happy and smiling and the service is fast, the outlets are bright lit with meals ready for you to order in less than 10 minutes. So what can be better than being able to enjoy your meal with your loved ones in such a nice restaurant? I used to think that fast food is not good for health, but after some time, put it this way, this place is a great feed on your mentality because you get to enjoy a meal without having to worry about anything and it tastes really nice. So, maybe even if its packed with chemical preservatives at some point, yet surely it wont hurt that much if you work out and supplement missing nutrients from other meals at other times? After all, the coffee there is not bad and the colonel's burger.. :D

"Dou Fu Hua" made from Soya Beans

Dou Fu Hua is among one of the best lady foods around. They are made from soy beans and formed as curds white in color. Typically they are tasteless but the way to eat them is to pour honey or glucose syrup as the clear base. Best served chilled and on a hot day, surely it takes away the tension. Usually nice ones are smooth and soft as silk. There are other toppings that can go with them to add more nutrition, such as ginkgo nuts, sesame seeds or hawthorn. As soy beans promise vibrant skin and healthy intestines, so does 'Dou Hua'. Just before it becomes curds, its called 'Dou Jiang' and in Hong Kong, 'dou jiang' is considered a traditional breakfast. Usually, people take 'You tiao' with 'Dou Jiang' because add them both together, gives enough energy and nutrition to start their busy lifestyle. Old folks would not have any problems drinking and eating 'Dou Jiang' or 'Dou Hua' apart from the fear of pain from Rheumatism due to the soy beans? However it is, certainly a great way to enjoy mid afternoon and it promises low calories and some ladies eat them to lose weight..

How they made Chinese rice Wine..



Everywhere in China, people care for a drink. Through the years, the Chinese have produced a number of rice wines popular until this day. One of the most famous being 'MouTai' which bears a real smooth aftertaste. 

They typically place the rice wine biscuit or 'Jiu Bing' into large tanks and let them out on nature's course of the weather in every season to aid in the overall brewing process. So that is how it comes about differences in taste depending on the geographical setup whereby places with mountain ranges or rivers would produce a different taste in the end product. Then there are the days left for fermentation as you can see here, when bacteria would work on providing different tastes through their oxidizing process. 

Imagine what we drink had always been the produce of a number of different bacterias and how they worked them out for us to drink and enjoy in the end. Take a look at these large tanks where they store and brew their wines for years and years without exposure. Some were left by the ancestors for hundreds of years even and nobody knows how long exactly it had been left there. A lot goes on for saving up the best for last.. that is if you are still alive..

A bread bun for Lunch and Sweet Candy for Evening snack..



"Thank you very much for the hearty squarish cheese bread bun".. I know you told me there are 3 types of cheese inside.. but I would not know how it tastes like until I try it.. So I am going to put it into my big pocket.. I guess they are tasty and I prefer to save the best hour in the day before I consume.. Maybe just for lunch.. And I know that is going to reserve coins I have been saving up in the pocket.. . Happily impersonating my soft toy.. to whom I speak to quite often... Helps me to keep the bun.. but before long, I would just eat it.. I remember the taste is good...
And then for the evenings, sometimes you just don't want anything heavy.. just a light snack is fine.. I tried these, almond candies from Taiwan.. really nice .. They use honey to embody each chunk and the Almonds are kept afresh similar to the ones reserved in their shells. Haven't I heard almonds are super good food for the skin, the eyes, the hair and what else??....

Magical Cucur's of the East - How do they Taste?

Cucur is the Malay name for an Asian Malay culture snack usually deep fried in oil after it is dipped or coated long enough with flour mixtures. There are many types of cucur and one of my personal favorite is the Cucur pisang or 'Banana Cucur' which promises the original scent and sweetness of bananas deep fried and coated with a crunchy coating. It does feel like eating a fruity version of KFC chicken replaced with the fruit of choice and in this case these are Cucur Pisang.

As the way to make Cucur is highly dependent upon each household ingredients and methods, you will be surprised that some of the best ones are made by housewives. This one here is another one stuffed with green beans inside and it tastes sweet of its original flavor. Green beans are great food that are known to improve complexion and reduces red spots. Nevertheless, in form of being Cucur, one can not be sure that these health benefits would still apply as the heat from deep frying may have already stripped them of their natural goodness. However, these food would mark worthy for being extraordinarily tasty and delicious!!
