Pancake For today's soy milk pancakes, learning from last time's experience, I tried reducing the amount of soy milk. By reducing the amount of soy milk, the batter didn't leak out of the ring mold while baking. However, the finished product turned out a bit firm […]
Pancake Today, I practiced flipping pancakes using a pastry ring. I set the stove to the lowest heat and cooked them slowly. When bubbles started appearing on the surface, it seemed the side touching the pan was nicely browned, and it was time to flip them. […]
Rusk Today, I tried making rusks from bread crusts using a frying pan. The result was moister than when I use a microwave, as the moisture didn't evaporate as much. Using a microwave seems to produce a crispier and more fragrant result […]
Jelly Today, I found some leftover red agar-agar in the cupboard, so I decided to make coffee agar-agar again. The finished product had a smoother texture, perhaps because I boiled the agar-agar for a longer time. It seems it's better to dissolve the agar-agar thoroughly. Co […]

Dishes Today, I tried making minestrone using thinly sliced pork. When it was done, even though I used thinly sliced pork, it was still about 2-3mm thick, so the pork was a bit too substantial. The flavor, however, had a good meaty umami, and the saltiness and tomato acidity were well-balanced […]
Dishes Today, I tried making minestrone with ground pork. Last time, I used fish and couldn't get rid of the smell, so I switched to meat. The finished dish didn't have the same smell as when I used fish. The consommé flavor and saltiness were just right, and the toma […]
