Lemon Curd Cheesecake (Unbaked) 柠檬奶油芝士蛋糕

Happy International Women Day -  March 8 2012.

Lemon Curd Cheesecake -  Either baked or unbaked is a hit for cheesecake lovers.

Yellow being one of my favorite color, just love the color combination of the cheesecake.   They look gorgeous, bright and lovely.  The only set back on the cake is the decoration of the cake.  Topping with cream and icing  are always weakest part of  my baking journey.  I'd never take the trouble to learn cake decoration, the reason simply I don't like cream on cakes. Plain is always the best!
The original recipe is from Kitchen's Corner and I have make some adjustment on my cake.

Chilled Tau Fu Fah 冷冻豆腐花

How about Tau Fu Fah with a twist?  Chilled with cooling sensation rather a tradition warm Tau Fu Fah?   Instead of using the lime powder, we used agar agar powder!  
The most important is it is super easy to prepare! That give  you the urge to want to prepare this cooling desserts for you, your family and family to enjoy right?
As for me I still prefer the warm tau fu fah,  but youngster and children just love the chilled Tau Fu Fah!  In short, the choice are yours! 

 



 You can actually see the Tau Fu Fah tremble when shake the plate!  ^_^

Healthy Lemongrass Ginger Tea 香茅姜茶

The Chinese have utilized ginger tea to aid with stomach upset and various other digestive issues. Ginger tea is low in calories so it can be added to any diet provided you like the unique taste.





Ginger root is used as an added spice to cakes, pies, Asian and Indian cuisine, and is also frequently used in tea with no additional calories. The health benefits of ginger  makes ginger tea so popular.
Ginger is known to be anti-inflammatory so adding some to your diet through tea is healthy for anyone with chronic allergy problems.  It is also sometimes used to aid with motion sickness.
For more information on the benefits of this Lemongrass Ginger Tea, please refer here






 I added Lemongrass to make it a more soothing drink.
