I’m back! It’s been about 3 weeks since I posted last. Busy work, busy sending people off to row an ocean or to go back to Indonesia. What with splitting my time between Tokyo, Choshi and Nagareyama, until yesterday I’ve not been in my house for more than 7 hours in a stretch (and 5 is [...]

Yours truly, on Day 2 of baking.

Cookies!

So this week’s MyOrangePot’s HQ kitchen is all about cookies. Cookies and more cookies. I’ve spoken about this one very brave mouse in a post earlier in the year, so I won’t go on about it anymore. But simply put, I pledged 20 batches of cookies and 1 tray of brownies and 1 tray of Ultimate Chocolate Cupcake for Sarah’s big [...]

Chicken + Beans + Peas Yoghurt Salad on Toast

The thing I look forward to the most from Spring is fresh green vegetables. Green beans, peas, curly lettuces and whatnot. Bon Appetit and other food blogs I’m following are ‘sprouting’ with very fresh looking recipes, tickling my cooking bone and so here we are… new easy lunch recipes for a nice picnic in the [...]

Nagaimo+Tofu+ Cheese Bake

Wow. It’s been a while and I’ve not posted anything here for a while. It’s just been a little bit crazy. What with cycling around the Miura peninsula, bobbing on the waters on a kayak and a row boat that will travel solo to Canada come April or snowshoeing and braving indoors camping in snowy [...]

Gado-Gado (Indonesian parboiled salad with peanut sauce)

It always surprises me when some friends confessed that they have never eaten Indonesian food. Indonesia is a country with 240 million population. We seem to always gather ourselves around food. We are also spread out literally everywhere, from Japan to Suriname, Australia to Canada. So I foolishly assume that somewhere, somehow, a person would [...]

So, this week I was sort of away from home. By ‘sort of’ I meant I’m home everyday, but just never spent anything more than some odd  2-3  hours in it. My friend Steph is away in India on her yoga training, and her husband was away for coaching a ski trip for the week. [...]

My Ultimate Chocolate Cupcake!

Chocolate cupcake, anyone? I am sooooo excited to share this news with you! I believe that I may have finally created my ultimate chocolate cupcake! For sometime now, I have this idea stuck in my head that it is critically important for a home-baker (who loves chocolate) to have a special recipe that is proof-tested [...]

Pull Apart Bread

Cheddar + Hoppy + Mustard Pull-Apart Rye Bread

What do you do when it’s a day-off and but the sky is pouring miserably outside? Another stupid construction is going on 3 floors above you – ever so loudly, but the wet and cold Winter day discouraged you to leave the apartment. What to do? I tapped on Flipboad on my new favorite ‘cookbook’, [...]

Fusionasta: Prawns-Umeboshi-Shiso Pasta

Hello 2012 and I am back! You are probably wondering where the hell I have been and what precisely I was thinking, since I started a blog and immediately went M.I.A. The answer to that is… a very eventful 2.5 weeks girly road trip with my sister and our beloved friend to (predominantly) USA West [...]

New Year Blackberry and Apple Pie

Sarah’s Mum’s Blackberry + Apple New Year’s Pie!

Over the Christmas holiday, I had the privilege to meet one of the loveliest and quite possibly the ‘craziest’ and bravest people in my life. Sarah Outen is originally from the UK and she is currently on a solo journey rowing, cycling, camping across the oceans, London 2 London via the World. Sarah happens to [...]
