I'm going to make another batch of Hakka Lui Cha (aka Thunder Tea) tomorrow; still deciding on Session 2. How about you? Let me know if you're cooking anything!

In today's cook along, I made some biscuits with the pulp leftover from making soy milk for the egg doufu that I made in last week's cook along. For every 100g of soy bean pulp: 90g plain flour 40g sugar 5g pandan powder (Or equivalent extract) - optional 4 Tablespoons olive oil/other oil or butter A pinch of salt 1 tsp baking powder Bake on 160C for 30 mins or browned Recipe based on one from PeiseeKitchen on FB

@Cathy Raff came across this article today, thought about you 😆- https://www.wsj.com/real-estate/storage-unit-cleanout-962730ab?st=QjzXzP&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink - just kidding!

Beancurd Skin Stirfry Another fantastic Cookalong with Jackie juggling multiple tasks - frying pieces of meat on bone cut out from chicken carscasses, frying prawn shells for prawn stock & shredding up a boiled chicken to make Gai Si Hor Fun. I adapted a vegetarian dish from YouTube using beancurd skin (fuchuk). After dipping the cut up fuchuk in an egg & cornstarch slurry & shallow frying, I cooked it with mushrooms, fungus (muk yee), carrots, tomatoes, green pepper & spring onions. It looked great, but tasted bland, so I doubled the soya sauce & oyster sauce - still not quite right. I know it’s a veggie dish, but I am not veggie, so I wasn’t worried reaching out for the chicken powder - Jackie will be proud! 🤭 Added that with a bit more water & braised it for a couple of minutes. Magic! 😊 The flavours came alive & it was delicious!

Sorry, the "adjusted times" below were incorrect in my original message. Hi everyone, Noah's just come back from school and he seems to be unwell, so I'm going to reschedule our first cookalong of the week to 7am Saturday Aust EST instead, which is the usual time plus 12 hours. I hope it doesn't put you out too much and maybe it'll be an opportunity for others to join us, who are usually unable to do so. Here's the adjusted time - Sydney, Australia Sat, 21 Feb 2026 at 7:00 am AEDT London, United Kingdom Fri, 20 Feb 2026 at 8:00 pm GMT Vancouver, Canada Fri, 20 Feb 2026 at 12:00 noon PST
