This recipe can turn a non Creme Caramel lover into one. Guaranteed. At one point of time I would’ve been caught dead eating a Creme Caramel, let alone make one. I despised all things with milk and this was no exception. But post pregnancy I got used to having milk and slowly accepting milk based desserts as well. My mum in law simply adores Creme Caramel and always orders this when we dine outside. So one fine day I finally took a spoon and dug in . Not bad I thought, but I’m sure I can make a better one at home. Ofcourse making the basic recipe was not exciting enough, so I put in my favourite ingredients. Star Anise lends such a delicate sweet flavor and aroma to the silky custard, which contrasts with the bitter caramel. And using vanilla bean paste just takes the flavours to a whole other level. You must give this a try even if you aren’t a CC person. You might change over.

Filipino-style Chicken Curry
Having a little one around, in particular one that seems to be, for the moment at least (fingers and toes resolutely crossed), enjoying the discovery of new foods, turns my thoughts to my own childhood food memories. And, inevitably, to thoughts of recreating them for her.

White Chocolate & Matcha Tea Marbled Cake
Sometimes it seems like I am always horribly late getting on the bus. I see interesting cooking techniques and appealing ingredients fly by me and all my good intentions to use them. Sometimes these ingredients reside right in my own pantry…and still it takes months of mental prodding to get me to try that particular recipe I have been saving (for what I have no idea)…a recipe that I really, with all my heart, do want to make tube amp!

More Help for Typhoon Yolanda Victims -- The Food Community Takes Action
A group of generous food and beverage purveyors have banded together to offer help to the victims of typhoon Yolanda. They are pledging a portion of their proceeds this weekend, November 16 - 17 Men clothing styles, to the Philippine Red Cross. Over a 100 kind souls have committed themselves to this initiative, started and spearheaded by Mr. Delicious. I think it is a wonderful endeavour and will be showing them my support.
