I add extra bamboo shoots, wood ear mushrooms & tofu to our family's version 😋

Since I couldn't sleep. I am #cooking some #Chinese #herbal #ChickenSoup. Perfect for Autumn soup season. A hearty, tasty immune boosting, traditional Chinese #soup.

This #recipe link is similar to our family's version but we never use green onion or any other onions in ours - it's not needed. I always add extra goji berries because I love them. I used a small, whole chicken, to make a large pot of soup for my family to enjoy ☺️

Good morning 🌄
I slept in & Mom made some #CanhChuaCá 😊
It is a #Vietnamese #SourFishSoup. Mom's been making this traditional comfort dish since her childhood years. In South #Vietnam she used mostly catfish because that's the main river fish that her brothers caught, back in her village life times.

Mom used cod for this - we don't get much catfish here. We love adding lots of #okra & #beansprouts. There's celery & pineapple underneath the bean sprouts, not visible.

This #SourSoup dish originated from the #MekongDelta & is a popular entree across #SouthVietnam. Canh Chua literally translates to sour soup - this is the #fish version. We have a chicken version that we make too.

Enjoying some #RedBeanPaste #pastries & a cup of #OolongTea. I don't like overly sweet snacks. These red bean paste desserts have slight sweetness, far from overpowering sweet taste. I got these ones from Fairway Market.

I'm working from home for part of today. I have 2 client check up appointments in the late afternoon. Both appointments are less than 15 minutes drive away👍

I made some comforting & healthy #lotus #root + #gingko #nuts #soup for #breakfast. 😊

In #Teochew / #Chinese cultures, #symbolism includes foods we eat too.
Lotus roots signify abundance. Gingko signifies longevity.

This recipe is similar to our homestyle version (we don't use written recipes at home):

Egg, chicken & #ramen soup - a hearty #AsianBreakfast to fuel me up.
I'm starting on my homework/soil studies again, after eating a filling hot breakfast, half an orange & having some oolong tea.

This is the #Jamaican #JerkSeasoning that I used to #marinate #chicken wings for an hour. Then baked them until fully cooked & the skins were slightly crispy.
I'm eating them with rice & fresh salad(made from our garden veggies).
