This is some #MuiChoy with some #garlic cloves. Prepping to cook with it.
Mui choy is commonly used in classic #Hakka - #Teochew - #Cantonese #cuisines. It's one of the various kinds of #preserved #mustards that almost every #Chinese household has in their pantries. We usually use it to make our traditional Teochew braised pork or chicken or tofu(for our meat free days) dishes.

In our Teochew language, mui choy translates to "congee vegetables" - because it's eaten with congee often. Very classic, preserved veggie that is used in #cooking - all across South East Asia.

A recipe for you to try out:

I bought some cold smoked capelin at a local international market to try out as an alternative to canned sardines. After getting it home, I realized that the fish are not cleaned! Are cold smoked capelin usually eaten uncleaned?

When my tummy feels unwell, I eat plain rice congee. These are #classic #Chinese #fermented #foods - all pair with congee. I ran out of salted ginger with soy beans & dried shrimp - two other preserved #Asian foods I eat with plain congee.

My tummy will feel better soon. I had a big bowl of plain congee with these 3 foods for my breakfast.
