Creamy Sorbets You may have tried a fruit sorbet, but have you tried a chocolate or hazelnut sorbet before? This Christmas, Alfero Gelato has created two Christmas sorbets - Dark Chocolate and Hazelnut which had my mind blown. I've always thought that sorbets are made with fruits and sweetened water. They often have that icy-like texture. It has never crossed my mind that ingredients like chocolate and hazelnut could also be used to make sorbets. Without milk and eggs, how is it possible that to make sorbets that look no READ MORE »
Getting Fitter and Healthier in 2018!
It's been quite a while since I have done the BodyBoss workout using their Ultimate Body Fitness Guide which is a 12-Week Step-By-Step Fitness Program that includes fun and challenging high-intensity workouts.

Matcha.Blue and Matcha.Pink : Natural Blue and Pink Food Colourings
While I hadn't been posting recipes on my blog for a really long time, I still have been working in the kitchen and making smoothie bowls. I get most of my inspirations from Instagram where there's a growing number of accounts that features mainly vegan food which includes smoothie bowls and nice-creams. Recently, there has been a trend of blue smoothie bowls using blue natural food dyes extracted from Blue Pea Flower (Butterfly Pea Flower) or this blue spirulina called Blue Majik.

Capturing the Art of Tea Brewing in A Bottle
Tea-infuser bottles are not exactly new in the market as there already various similar products sold out there. But here's one tea brewer-in-a-bottle which with an additional innovation - it allows the brewed tea to be separated from the tea leaves. In other words, this allows us to have control over the brewing time. Most frequent tea lovers or connoisseurs would know that when tea leaves are steeped in water for too long, the bitter compounds (a.k.a tannins) in the leaves will be released. Thus, this would alter the flavour of the tea and READ MORE »
Pure Indian Foods: Grassfed Organic Turmeric Superghee (iHerb)
When anyone mentions of ghee, the first word that comes up to my mind is unhealthy. I've always associated ghee with unhealthy cooking oils or clarified butter used by Indians in their everyday cooking. Back in the past, the locals here in Singapore also uses ghee in baking and cooking but many have switched to healthier vegetable oils. But recently, I discovered some amazing benefits of ghee. And to my surprise, Ghee actually has healing properties in Ayurvedic medicine. It is used mainly to heal ulcers and constipation. But of course, the READ MORE »
