Tofu with Century Egg


To kick start, I would like to share this Cold Dish recipe using Lee Kum Kee First Draw Soy Sauce. What so good about First Draw Soy Sauce as compared to other grade soy sauce is the first extraction of soy sauce brewing, means it gives a rich soy flavour and aroma to any dish you cook.

Ingredient:
1 block Silken Tofu
1 Century Egg (diced)
1 tbsp Soy Sauce Paste
First Draw Soy Sauce to taste
1 tsp Sesame Oil
2 tbsp Chicken stock
Pork floss and spring onion as topping

Method:
1. Mix Soy sauce paste, Sesame Oil and chicken stock in a bowl, stir well. Add First Draw Soy Sauce to taste.
2. Remove tofu from fridge and place on a plate. Top with Century egg cubes.
3. Pour the mixture into tofu and century egg.
4. Top with pork floss and spring onion.
5. Serve it cold.

Lee Kum Kee "Fast, Fresh & Simple" Workshop

This is my first invitation to Lee Kum Kee event. This event objective is cooking together and eat together = encourage family and friend bonding. It was held at Cookyn Inc., Mervyn is our "teacher". He demonstrated some dishes that used Lee Kum Kee products(see below).


Vietnamese Spring Rolls with two Dips: (right) Hoisin Sauce with chunky peanut butter; (top) Plum Sauce with lime juice, fish sauce and minced chilli.


Tuna Tataki with First Draw Soy Sauce and Sesame Seed Oil Vinaigrette.
Sauce: mix sesame oil, first draw soy sauce, lemon juice and olive oil well.


(left) blanched baby Kailan with fried garlic and shrimp paste. (right) Silken tofu with crispy breadcrumbs coated with shrimp paste. Will try to cook shrimp paste with kailan dish next time.


Grilled Mini Chicken Burger. I liked the taste of the marinated chicken. marinate mixture: oyster sauce, honey, olive oil, soy sauce, hua tiao wine, salt and pepper.


Dried angel hair pasta with XO Sauce and crispy ikan bilis.
This is the last dish and also my favorite! Although I was very full from the food that was served before this, but I still finished the whole plate of pasta! Must be the crispy ikan bilis that do the trick.
