A Traditional Hokkian Dish for Spring Festival... Dried Bamboo Shoot.

Not many people know how to eat bamboo shoot. Or even heard of eating bamboo shoot. Yes, we eat bamboo, and we are not Panda.

According to Wikipedia, Bamboo: The shoots (new bamboo culms that come out of the ground) of bamboo, called zhú sǔn (竹笋) in Chinese, are edible. They are used in Asian stir fry, and are available in supermarkets in various sliced forms. However, the shoots of some species contain toxins that need to be leached or boiled out before they can be eaten safely.

This is raw bamboo shoots, just for your info.

Sometimes simple own cook noodle... Better!

Chinese New Year celebration should be like this: eat, tv, gamble, eat, sleep, eat, gamble, tv, ...

And we are going to celebrate like that for full 15 days!

Although this is the year of Dog, but I am not sure how many of you had turn to piggy already.

At least for me, I had received complains regarding to my sudden increase of mass density.

So, in order to satisfy my inner needs, I will introduce a simple own cook noodle soup to refresh us that not necessary only a ten course meal with "Yi Sang" will make you happy.



To prepare this is simple. First, you boil and cook any amount of spaghetti you like. As spaghetti is hard, you need to boil for long, until it turn soft, but springy.
