This Chinese Style Vegetable Soup is a response to a few not-so-good soups I had. Within the last two years or so I’ve had some disappointing experiences when purchasing vegetable soups at different Chinese restaurants where they have been noticeably sweeter. Far too sweet for my liking :( This recipe uses some of my favorite ingredients to achieve a flavor profile that I love in Chinese style soup. Assorted veggies in a savoury broth that features great umami flavor with a ginger and star anise kick! #food #recipe #soup
Sorrel Filled Cupcakes.
This dessert brings together different flavors of a traditional Trini Christmas in a creatively scrumptious way. For the sponge cupcakes, I tweaked the @Recipetineats recipe to achieve a "granny style" sponge cake flavor. The sorrel jam filling is from a recipe I posted a couple years ago and the cream cheese frosting incorporates a sorrel reduction as the flavor base. This cupcake has layers of amazing textures and flavors and is sure to be a crowd pleaser for the Christmas season. #cupcake #sponge #sorrel #dessert #recipe

How to make Browning.
Browning is a popular sauce in the Caribbean made from "burnt" sugar. The process of stewing meats or legumes usually begins with caramelizing or browning sugar in a pot. This is the basis for many Caribbean stews. However a successful stew requires perfect timing and can be a bit daunting to some cooks. Browning or browning sauce eliminates this step and allows cooks to achieve perfect stews. It is also used to color and flavor Black Cake or Fruit Cake which is a very popular Christmas dessert in Trinidad & Tobago and throughout the region. #browning #cooking #caribbean

Healthy Homemade Granola.
The best thing about making homemade granola is that you know exactly what's going into it and you get to choose the ingredients you love to make it exactly the way you like. This recipe uses spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, tonkabean, bayleaf powder to give it a warm, comforting flavor profile. Fresh ginger and slivers of dried coconut add some added flavor, texture and of course, nutritional value! #granola #homemade #recipe
