Been wanting to bring mum to Mei Heong Yuen Dessert (味香园甜品) located on the second floor of Northpoint City but the little corner is forever packed with customers. Finally found a table today but darn, the staff making shaved ice is out for lunch. So we settled for the Water Chestnut Cakes (马蹄糕) costing S$3.50 a plate. The translucent dessert had slices of crisp water chestnut suspended inside the steamed kueh (cake). If you like something light, this is for you but I found it a little plain tasting for my palate.

The Mango Roll (芒果卷) featured rice flour sheet wrapping around a tangy sweet piece of fresh mango. It is accompanied with a refreshing drizzle of sweet mango sauce which served to boost the mango flavour profile. This is S$4 well spent for a late afternoon treat.

Any kimono or other chestnut patterned object? Or a legend? Chestnuts have been present in Japan since before rice.
Chestnut or 栗 kuri can indeed be found used as patterns, for kimono, obi and any knick knack like boxes, plates, sword guards, etc. On the blog, you can find some here.
Tbh, rice was mostly reserved to the elite for a super long time, and common people eat other cereals, like millet. Chestnut were an afordable food, eaten in Japan since at least Jomon period, easy to store and packed with nutriments.
Kurigohan (chestnut with rice) is still nowadays a well loved autumn dish. Their auspicious golden colors also makes them suitable to be served for celebrations in place of the usual auspicious sekihan (red beans and rice).

Food #002: Porcini and chestnut risotto (with a fusion twist)
Tumblr media
MADE: 07 MAR 2023
Before anything, yes, I have a favorite bowl. I mean, who can resist the meow? 👀
Alright. So. When I made this, I had a revenge to take. The last risotto I ate before that (in a supposedly fancy restaurant!) was b l a n d —and I hate bland.
Hence, my mission here was to make a risotto that could be fancy AND not bland. Oh, and to use the jar of chestnuts that had been sitting in my pantry, too. I mostly based my recipe on this one, this one and a tiny bit of this one, but I did add some twists of my own... so please, Italian people, don't kill me for what I'm about to disclose 🙃
INGREDIENTS
250 g risotto rice (arborio/carnaroli)
30 g dried porcini mushrooms
1 cup (250 mL) porcini soaking liquid (see in recipe instructions)
2 1/2 cups (625 mL) vegetable broth (I used a cube of unsalted broth + water)
12 crumbled cooked chestnuts (+ some whole ones to serve)
1 or 2 shallots
1/2 cup (125 mL) sake (as a replacement to the traditional white wine, because that's all I have in my teetotaler's pantry)
20 g pecorino romano (it should be parmesan, but there are only very few cheeses I like and parmesan isn't one of them)
30 g butter (optional)
salt & pepper
olive oil
chopped scallion (to serve)
sanshō (Japanese pepper, to serve)
DIRECTIONS
(Optional) Stir fry the whole jar of chestnuts with salt and pepper for a few minutes, then reserve them. Crumble the 12 chestnuts that will go into the risotto.
Put the dried porcini in at least 1 cup boiling water for 10-20 mins. In the meantime, you can prepare the other ingredients (like chopping the shallots for instance)
In a saucepan, combine 1 cup porcini soaking liquid and the vegetable broth. Heat up until it boils and is completely mixed. Keep warm on the stove.
In a saucepan big enough to cook the amount of rice, stir fry the shallot in the olive oil over low heat, until it becomes translucent. Add all the rice. Stir everything and let toast for a few minutes, then add the sake to deglaze.
Add a ladle of hot broth. Gently mix and cook until the mixture starts to look dry. ONLY then add another ladle of broth, etc. (This process is very important! It ensures the starch in the rice gives a nice, creamy texture.)
When there's about half of the broth left, add chopped porcini and the crumbled chestnuts, mix, then keep adding broth ladle by ladle.
When you're done adding the broth and the rice is done, remove the risotto from the heat and stir in butter and pecorino. Salt and pepper to taste.
Serve hot with chopped scallion and sanshō sprinkled on top, as well as whole chestnuts.

Dear Mr. Sholmes,
Thank you!
Tumblr media
Perhaps, Susato-san and I can interest you in Udon and dango? We often serve them during Harvest Moon. As you know, we don’t serve turkey, squash, peas or carrots, being we don’t raise much livestock or grow those kinds of vegetables in my homeland. We mostly grow rice, soy, ginger, onions, Chinese cabbage, spinach, Japanese pumpkins and other vegetables not grown in Europe or Americas.
(Talk about cultural and climate differences.)
Tumblr media
We do have festivals in our homeland we often go to. They’re quite enjoyable. I’m sure they’re having a jolly ol’ time right now. We should make time to go celebrate once we head to Japan
(I miss home already.)

Went to Canton Paradise (乐天小香港) at Junction 8 after praying at the temple. We were seated at two different tables, so each ordered their dishes separately. This Braised Peanut & Chestnut was the appetizer they placed on the table. Whole savoury peanuts with sweet chestnuts perked up the tastebuds as we poured ourselves the Glutinous Rice Pu-Erh Tea (糯米沱普洱茶).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We started off with the classic dim sum Siew Mai or Steamed Pork Dumpling (鱼子蒸烧卖皇). The pork and prawn filling with sprinkling of flying fish roe adding specks of colour is both meaty and wholesome tasting. Then came the Har Gow or Steamed Prawn Dumpling (笋尖鲜虾饺) with chunky succulent and crunchy prawn enclosed inside the translucent skin.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Steamed Xiao Long Bao (上海小笼包) or soup dumpling is also another must order item. Pick it up gently with chopsticks into a soup spoon. Take a small bite in the dumpling skin and proceed to suck out the soup (beware, it's hot) then popped the whole thing into the mouth.
