2017 Top 6 Recipes

December 31, 2017 By Lokness Leave a Comment

Let’s do a count down on 2017 Top 6 recipes! 

It has been a crazy year! With breaking news comes at us every couple days, there had been a lots of emotions (sadness, anger, and fear). That means we had been doing plenty of stress eating. Hope 2018 will be better!

Personally, it has been great! Bryan and I still overjoy about the trip to Kyoto, Osaka and Nara. That magical snow in Kyoto was one of the most memorable things. We wish we can be there every day!

Blog wise, I worked on getting the site to run a bit faster with the help of Bryan. I’m happy with the result. I also got the opportunities to meet up with 3 food bloggers, Bonnie from Thirsty For Tea, Nami from Just One Cookbook, and Maggie from Omnivore’s Cookbook. It’s amazing how the internet and the real world connects. I am so thrilled to get to know these talented people in person. I’m inspired and I hope to do better in the coming year.

Thanks all of you for another great year! I’m looking forward to bringing you more delicious recipes in 2018! HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Shall we start the 2017 favorite recipes count down?

6. Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake – This pretty 6-inch cheesecake was really perfect for a small party! Who wouldn’t love a good chocolate, raspberry and cream cheese combination?

5. Sangchu Geotjeori (Korean Lettuce Salad) – This salad is unique and different. With a little kick, it makes an excellent vegetable side dish to go with any meat!

4. Japanese Egg Salad Sandwich with Bacon and Coleslaw – I LOVE this sandwich and would love to have it every morning. This recipe was a copy cat sandwich from one of the cafes in Kyoto that we visited. It’s full of surprising flavors!

3. Double Chocolate Blueberry Muffins – This is on my baking list once blueberries are in season. The dark chocolatey flavor works so well with the sweet and tart blueberries. I love that I can keep them in freezer and reheat in the morning.

2. Coconut Red Bean Pudding – This Chinese dessert is popular during Chinese New Year. Sweet coconut milk flavored pudding filled with tender red bean. Excellent sweet to serve all year round.

1. Mini Pink Lemon Baked Donuts – Surprise and NOT surprise! After seeing this post, Bryan would ask me to make him these ASAP! These baked donuts were super moist with a hint of citrus and fragrant. Even if you can’t find pink lemons, you can still bake them with regular lemons!

The food in the picture is sweet glutinous rice dumplings w/ black sesame 落湯糍(糯米糍). The word “糍” sounds similar to “錢”, so the dumplings represent money. Eating them will bring you lots of wealth! 

The dumplings are chewy & gooey like mochi. Coated in black sesame seeds. Right before eating, dip them in sugar. Perfect sweet treat for the new year!

We just can’t get enough of @somisomiicecream! T We just can’t get enough of @somisomiicecream! Their soft serve is creamy, yet not too sweet. Lots of choices too, like ube, matcha, black sesame etc. The taiyaki is crispy on the outside & filled w/ goodness, like Nutella, red bean & custard. My only wish is that they open a store in the San Gabriel Valley, so we don’t have to travel far every time!😆

2022 is coming to an end! It has been a much bette 2022 is coming to an end! It has been a much better year for me personally. We traveled a bit more (Denver, Monterey, Maine, & Boston) & ate lots of incredible food. I’m drooling just thinking about some of the food. Also, my parents flew in from HK. We finally got to see each other after 3 years. We spent time together & attended my sister’s wedding. And we all finally got covid. It’s looking like things are getting back to normal. I truly hope it is!

When it’s cold outside, this Tapioca Pearls w/ T When it’s cold outside, this Tapioca Pearls w/ Taro 芋頭西米露 is the dessert I crave! It’s hot, sweet, & earthy. It’s a very classic Cantonese dessert that you can always find in Chinese restaurants. 

This is the last recipe of 2022 from me. Happy New Year! From the bottom of my heart, thank you for all the loves & supports! ❤️❤️❤️

Galbi mandu (dumpling) from Chang Hwa Dang (CHD) a Galbi mandu (dumpling) from Chang Hwa Dang (CHD) are so damn GOOD! 🥟 Smokey, little sweet, meaty, & crispy skin. I could eat a few plates of those! We first tried the sampler, but was most impressed by the galbi ones. We like the pork too, but the jalapeño one was way too spicy for my taste. It actually has half of a jalapeño in it.🔥

Getting into the holiday season w/ a festive cockt Getting into the holiday season w/ a festive cocktail, Fresh Cranberry Gin & Tonic! Elevate the classic w/ sweet & tart cranberries. I get drunk easily, so this cocktail is heavy on flavors & not too boozy. In other words, you can have a few of these!😜
