sugga chocopens

Thanks to 7-11 for these sugga chocopens, they are bascially coloured icing for decorating cakes.
There are six colours in total.

Initially I was going to decorate the dessert and squeezed the chocopen with all my might but the icing did not come out.

I then realised you had to immerse it in 50-60 degree C water to melt the icing.
After doing that, it was easy to use!

After a while, the icing becomes matt and becomes hard.

As for the taste, the icing tastes like chocolate icing.

For the other colours yellow and blue, I will use it on darker cakes so that there is a better contrast and the colours will show up better.

2.PM Korean rice cakes in soup

Got these delicious spicy rice cakes Thanks to 7-11 which cost $12.9 per bowl.

The shape of these rice cakes were like flat discs and the ones I tried earlier were like thick mini rods.

The broth tasted nice but the rice cakes were too chewy, maybe I should leave them for at least 10 minutes next time.

The broth was nice and colourful, it had pieces of dehydrated eggs and seaweed.

Innovative cleaning with a drill

I was quite amused to see someone use a Drill with a brush attached on the end to clean an egg puff maker!

2.PM Korean spicy rice cakes

Got these delicious spicy rice cakes Thanks to 7-11 which cost $12.9 per bowl.

Inside there is a vacuum sealed bag of Korean rice cakes which look like mini rice rolls.

The rice cakes are easy to prepare, you just open the sealed bag and put them in the bowl in came in and add hot water.

Then you can let it stand for 8 minutes or put it in the microwave for 2 minutes.

After that, pour away the hot water and add the sachet of sauce and it is ready to eat.

The rice cakes were quite nice, they were firm and al-dente and not as spicy as I expected with some sweetness in the sauce.

Home-made black garlic

Black garlic is a type of fermented garlic used as a food ingredient. It is made by fermenting whole bulbs of garlic at high temperature, a process that results in black cloves. The taste is sweet and syrupy with hints of balsamic vinegar.

It is sourced by chefs as ingredients for high-end cuisines and in Korea and Asia, it is perceived as a health food that is high in antioxidants.

Since the process of making black garlic sounds sophisticated, I was really surprised when my friend gave me some home made black garlic!

I was stunned that it could be home made.

Anyway, I really liked her black garlic because her mum used Solo garlic (single clove garlic) which is extremely easy to peel and eat.

The taste was the same as the ones I had brought before too and it had some tones of sweetness in it too.
