Why Eat Kimchi?
2008-05-28 21:01:00 Kimchi, also known as 'gimchi' or 'kimchee' is a fermented Korean food, equivalent to our sauerkraut. Eaten as a side dish, its main ingredient is cabbage. Kimchi has been eaten for the last 3000 years, and only recently (12th century) began to be prepared with the addition of chili peppers. Other variations today include kimchi made of radishes, scallions, or stuffed cucumber. Kimchi is seasoned with ginger, garlic, onions, and sometimes brined shrimp or fish sauce (anchovy based).Fermented foods like kimchi are known as healthy foods, and not just for the vitamin content (Vitamins A, B1, B2, Calcium, C, Carotene). Ann Louise Gittleman, author of The Gut Flush Plan writes that it's because they "feed and sustain the probiotic population in our digestive tracts," keeping our guts in good shape. Named one of the top five "World's Healthiest Foods" by Health magazine, kimchi contains lactic acid bact...

Tofu Cubes with Fermented Bean Curd
2008-01-10 07:18:00 I'm a Teochew and I ate Teochew porridge a lot when I was young. In fact, everytime when it's my father's offday, he will cook porridge with a few side dishes like this, this or this. His offday would mean bean sprouts plucking day for me too. Because I have to pluck a big bag of bean sprouts! We won't miss the Salted eggs and Fermented Bean Curd on the table too when we have porridge.The other day I was hungry and since there was a leftover bowl of my daughter's porridge and a piece of tau kwa (firm tofu) in the fridge which I decided not to use for dinner, I did this and that settled my supper. So Teochew. My late grandfather would have loved this.Ingredients:1 piece Tau Kwa (firm tofu), drained and cut into cubesOil of fryingSeasonings to be mixed together:1 piece Fermented Bean Curd1/2 tablespoon Sauce from fermented bean curd1/2 teaspoon of sugar20ml WaterHow to do it:Deep fried Tau Kwa till golden brown.Drain and transferred to a wok.Add in the seasonings.Stir fry well t...
Fermented Crap Mixture Is The New Drug: I'll Stick With Beer
2007-11-10 10:55:00 The simple fact that anyone could even dream something like this up astounds, but doesn't amaze me. When you consider a mentally deranged wheelchair bound pervert was capable of creating a fortune by putting pictures of naked women into magazines and getting it classified as art, nothing really amazes me anymore.Moving on,...Supposedly, this is some new phenomenon among teens. I guess kids will in fact be kids, and some people will try anything once. Glenn Beck even had a mention of it in one of his newsletters HERE. The so called "drug" I'm referring to here is called 'Jenkem' and it's made by fermenting raw sewage. Basically, your supposed to put urine and excrement in a bottle and let it sit for a few days, with a balloon stretched over the top to catch the escaping gas. Then your supposed to inhale that gas.Right......I'll take a beer, you can have the 'turd-gas'.Fortunately, it's not the massive problem that the Glenn Beck newsletter could potentially cause people to ...

Fermented Shrimp Sauce - Cincaluk
2007-10-08 07:23:00 Name of Shop: Tan Kim Hock Seng Food Sdn Bhd Are you a fan of Jerry Hopkins (The Chap who wrote Extreme Cuisine)? If you are, then I think you will take to this specialty from Melaka, Malaysia.

The smell, needless to say, stinks like cheese but it's helluva delicious! What To Buy: For us Peranankans ( Straits Born Chinese ) , no dish is ever complete with this stinky, salty shrimp sauce. Like the Thais with their ubiquitous fish sauce, we use it for practically everything, as a dip for barbequed fish, a sauce for beef noodles and even as seasoning for fried chicken. If you're keen, buy a bottle of the sauce from the famous Tan Kim Hock store in Melaka and try this simple but delicious recipe. Bon Appétit !Bpacker's Cincaluk ChickenIngredients1)A couple of chicken thighs2)A salty marinade consisting of 1 tbsp sugar +2.5 tbsp cincaluk +1 tbsp lime ju...
Fermented Herring
2007-08-16 11:33:00 I promise. I would never force you to eat fermented herring (sw. surströmming). It is a northern Swedish delicacy food. However, many people never get used to neither the smell nor the taste. They are avoiding this fermented food dish forever. Those who are familiar with the durian fruit say that fermented herring stinks worse.The Baltic herring is caught in spring, when it is just about to spawn, then fermented in barrels with a minimum of salt for one to two months, and finally tinned where the fermentation continues.The third Thursday in August is traditionally the right time to eat fermented herring (surströmming). It smells so bad you have to open the can outdoors. It is best eaten indoors because the smell attracts the flies. Then "the gas" will fill the whole house for at least a couple of days. Despite the disgusting smell, this is how we like to eat fermented herring.INGREDIENTS:serves 2 - 4* 1 tin fermented herring (10 - 12 herrings )* new potatoes, boiled with dill* red o...

Deep Fried Pork Ribs with Fermented Bean Curd
2007-08-06 04:10:00 I'm a Teochew, which is a ethnic dialect group. The Teochews like to eat plain porridge with a few side dishes. When my brother and I were younger, my father always make us eat porridge. It always came with salted eggs, Bean Sprout, Tau Kwa or Tau Bok and Fermented Bean Curd. I can eat two bowls of porridge with just the Fermented Bean Curd. It's salty so we were only given two pieces to be shared.I remembered in one of the older movies, Armour of God (????), by Jackie Chan and Alan Tam, Alan Tam bought a bottle of Fermented Bean Curd to visit Jackie Chan. When asked what it was by May, a female character, they said it was Oriental Cheese. It was a good analogy. haha.... It's does look like Laughing Cow's Cream Cheese Cubes dip in chilli and Sesame Seed Oil.The one I used in this dish is another type of Fermented Bean Curd. It's called the Shanghainese Fermented Bean Curd. Some called it Red Fermented Bean Curd. * Shanghainese Fermented Bean Curd aka ?? *Ingredients: 700g Pork ...

Alcoholic beverages and fermented foods can cause cancer
2007-03-08 16:28:00 Keep The Doctor Away: New links have been confirmed between wine, fermented foods and cancer. But luckily, garlic can reduce your risk, researchers say. New findings dispel the popular notion that eating so-called ?natural? foods will protect against cancer.In fact, the study found that a naturally-occurring carcinogen found in alcoholic beverages and fermented foods like cheese, yoghurt and bread causes DNA modification and mutations, ultimately leading to abnormal cell growth and lung cancer.Vinyl carbamate is a substance derived from ethyl carbamate (urethane), a by-product of fermentation. It is also present naturally in tobacco.Now labelled as a potential carcinogen by both the World Health Organization and the International Agency for Research on Cancer, urethane was given inadvertently to millions of patients in Japan, between 1950 and 1975, in analgesic and sedative drugs. This is believed to be the largest dose on record of a pure carcinogen administered directly to people....
