This
Tuscan Bean Soup recipe is adapted from Saveur.com and I enjoyed every part of it. I have actually cooked it many times, more frequently in the winter months of December, January and February when such a hearty and wholesome soup is called for. That said, it is suitable anytime if you are a "so

Organic
king oyster mushrooms are easily available in the Asian (be it Chinese, Korean, Japanese) supermarkets around the Bay Area, and I am lucky to have all these Asian supermarkets within close proximity.
Such a stir-fry of green vegetables and mushrooms is a regular at the dinner table, as it

Once or twice during the weekdays, I cook extras so there are leftovers for weekend dinners, sparing myself some time during the weekends - to rest.
If you cook extras as leftovers, how often do you do that? I am amazed by those who cook their meals fresh every day, three meals per day, seven days

Pineapple is a good source of Vitamin C and aids digestion. We consume them as fruits most of the time.
In Chinese food therapy,
pineapples are considered "cooling" for the body. When consumed, they
can alleviate inner body heat and reduce dehydration. With that, we can almost say that pineapple

I have seen it many times especially in the health grocery stores, but it never made its way into my grocery cart until today.
Noodles! Huh? That's ordinary!
Well, not your ordinary wheat, rice or egg noodles but these tofu-based

With cucumber,
turnip, pineapples,
bean sprouts - think Asian-style salad and
Rojak comes to mind. With
long beans,
cabbage,
tofu - think Asian-style salad and
Gado Gado it is. Both are similarly salads yet distinctive in their own dressings:
Rojak in a shrimp-paste-based dressing while
Gado Gado in

This is skillet noodles with served-by-the-sides pan-grilled shrimps, steamed/blanched
Bok Choy, par-boiled
eggs and stir-fried
kale. So now, where do I get this idea? True that I often cook
one-dish meal; however, I don't think I have had one with the combination of egg, shrimps, meat and vegetabl

Chickpeas is the preferred bean to use for this dish, compared to
black beans when the flavors of black beans did not really quite hit the correct spot for

Instead of making
Three-Cup Chicken, the proteins were switched up with a mixture of Enoki and
Oyster mushrooms making this a perfect vegetarian dish.
