Soul soup
April 28, 2007
Wonton is a well-known food enjoyed by people all around the world. Made popular by the Chinese, wonton can be savoured as a deep-fried crispy appetizer or as fusion tapas, blanche in soups and even as a dish itself in Dim Sum. The skin is usually use as a wrap but this time, I am eating it as a noodle in tasty home-made soup. It's lovely either way.

Last night, was one night to remember, dinner at one of 'Kuala Lumpur's well-sought-after' home bakers' home. Food was deliciously wonderful and company was ex-ordinarily interesting. All guests were from very different walks of life with something in common 'the love of FOOD'. A lovely bunch of interesting new friends have just evolved right in front of my eyes and not to forget those I have met earlier this year. Last night was for keeps!

'Cheh Sek Tau' otherwise known as rice bean is used as a soup remedy to strengthen the back of those suffering from lower back pain. In the above photo, 2 types of rice bean is shown. The one on the left is dark maroon brown in color (bought in Malaysia) and the black colored beans (right) are from China. I suppose they are both rice bean but of a different species.
