Confinement Dishes (I)

Dong Guai Soup ( My rating : 9/10) - Cooked under long hours and stewed in a small claypot (炖盅) only. Red dates alone have given enough sweetness to this soup.

Ingredients : Kampung chicken, dong guai, red dates, chinese wolfberries, dried longan.

Pig Stomach & Chicken Leg Soup ( My rating : 7/10). This one is very 'kampung' style, unlike our normal 'pepperish' pig stomach soup.     (more......)

They were homemade macarons from Maya Sophea (carol tan 012-4181747). Stuffed with various fillings aka choc ganache, rose scented, passionfruit cream, lychee and etc.

Compared to the BBO's version of macarons, these are less sweet and having little fruit bites stuffed within the cream fillings.  By looking at the degree of  'shatterness' after one bite, you could know roughly how crunchy or soft the macarons are.  I saw the biggest difference in the choc flavour below.
