Why American?
Anybody out there can tell me?

I am not a fan of cookies
I made these for my daughters & grandchildren.

After baking, I couldn't help but taken 4 pieces!
Is it because these were crunchy?
Yes, very crunchy!
Also,
I think it must have been fresh from the oven!

This recipe originated from Quay Po Cooks,
modified by Sonia a.k.a Nasi Lemak Lover
and now
I simplified the method.

HERMAN


Herman 
is a friendship starter
It is given free
and 
is meant to pass down from generations to generations

It has been introduced to us by 
Xiuli Zhang from Singapore.
She has an exceptional passion for Herman Starter.

She cultures Herman 
and
 distributes to ALL those who show interest in it.

Besides distributing in Singapore
driving Herman to their new homes,
She even posted the Herman to various states in Malaysia, 
and 
paid for the Postage!

All for the love of Herman


History of Herman



Herman 
 being a friendship Starter
is given free to start a friendship
This is Day 2 Herman

If you are interested, can refer to this link created by Xiuli Zhang
and 
request for Herman starter

Herman is easy to maintain and 
it requires feeding every 5 days
This is how it goes:

Conventional Method
Day 1
1/4 cup herman starter
fed with 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup milk and 1/4 cup all purpose flour

Day 2 - 4
stir every day

Day 5
1. take out 1/4 cup to start feeding cycle for the next batch 
    i.e. cycle starts from Day 1-4 again
2. to the remaining herman, add 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup all purpose flour
    This is ready to use the next day or 2


The current hot weather speeds up fermentation,
so Herman turns sour easily.
This method can help to control over fermentation:

Method Adapted to Asian Weather

Day 1
1/4 cup herman
fed with 1/8 cup sugar, 1/4 cup plain flour & 1/4 cup milk

Day 2
stir

Day 3 
fed the batch with 1/8 cup sugar, 1/4 cup flour & 1/4 cup milk

Day 4
stir 

Note:
1) You can share the herman on any of the days above
2) once you receive the herman, start feeding from Day 1
3) if you need more herman for baking, just increase the feeding amount accordingly.
4) use the herman to bake when it has risen double in height


Improved Feeding, Storage & Reviving Method:

Shared by Xiuli Zhang 
Combating Sour Herman with Easy Maintenance
For Herman that turns sour easily due to faster fermentation/too much yeast in starter.
Here is an easy way to maintain Herman & refresh the starter on every use.
Use a 700-800ml glass bottle, feed 1/4 cup HERMAN with the following ingredients:
1/2 cup Fresh milk
1/2 cup All Purpose Flour/Plain Flour
1/4 cup sugar
Mix the 3 ingredients into paste before stir well into Herman bottle.
Cover loosely & Leave at room temperature overnight. Put into chiller when u see it starts bubbling.
2-3 days before bake, refresh the Herman with the following feeding method. Fermentation all should be at room temperature.
Day 1
Take out 1 tablespoon of Herman from chiller, feed with ingredients below:
1/4 cup Fresh Milk
1/4 cup All purpose flour/Plain Flour
1/8 cup Sugar
Day 2 
Stir only
(U can use for bake too IF it rises up actively double the height)
Day 3 
Refeed Herman in morning to make more
1/4 cup Fresh Milk
1/4 cup All purpose flour/Plain Flour
1/8 cup Sugar
Stiring helps to give more oxygen to yeast. After Day 3 Herman will rise fall, rise fall a few times when u stir it, which show its readiness to be used. Best time to use Herman is on Day 3-4.
❤️You can use the Herman on Day 2 too if yours turn out very bubbly rise up, and the amount enough for your recipe. If not give another feed.
❤️If u need more u may feed double the ingredients on Day 3 OR use 2 tablespoon Herman to feed in Day 1.
Any balance starter may be added back to the Herman in chiller. When the Herman in the fridge is about 2 tablespoon left, feed & repeat the cycle above. 😄
Short-term Storage - up to 2 month
Keep in chiller up to 1 month when want to take a short break. Feed Herman before send into chiller. When want to use it, take out from chiller, thaw it and feed. It will bubble in 1-2 days time.
❤️❤️❤️IMPORTANT - Do it in 1st batch of fermenting when u get your Herman.
Storage for Emergency (advisable keep 2 portions into ziplog bags with labeling)
Long-term Storage - up to 6-8 months
Keep 2 portions (1/4 cup) of Herman in freezer for Emergency up to 8 months. Advisable to keep Day 3-4 well fermented Herman. No feeding needed when Herman in freezer. When want to use it, take out from chiller, thaw it and feed Day 1 ingredients, stir twice daily to let more oxygen in, wait for sign of bubbles appear. Herman from freezer will take 4-5 days to start bubbling because it's from freezer, a place which totally stop its fermentation activity. After seeing bubbles, then u start 2nd feeding.
Happy Hermaning,
Xiuli Zhang

KEFIR CHEESE CAKE

There is nothing to shout about 
when we bake a cheese cake
but
made with kefir cheese is something that we may feel accomplish

I forgot to take a shot before cutting

(A) 75g Kefir cheese
      20g fresh milk
      50g butter

(B) 3 eggs, separated
      1/4 tsp cream of tartar

4. mix 1/2 meringue to cheese mixture until combine
5. then transfer the lot and mix gently into the meringue, fold in sifted flour
6. pour into lined pan, knock pan on counter to release trapped air bubbles
7. steam bake 160"C for 50min

MILK KEFIR

MILK KEFIR


is Kefir grains cultured in Fresh Milk.

Its taste comes from the milk you use.
So, you will get what you feed the Milk Kefir grains.

Fruit juices
or freshly cut fruits
can be added for varieties in flavour

These probiotic drinks are similar
if not better than Yogurt Drink sold in the Supermarkets

If left to ferment further, you will get a thicker version, yogurt

If longer still, the milk will separate from whey
and
you will get cheese instead, if given time to drip....


Milk separates from Whey



Dripped 1 day in fridge, you get cheese!
Whey is the green colour water on the right.

I am yet to find out the uses of Whey

Haha, looks interesting?

To culture Milk Kefir
1 tsp milk kefir grains 
500ml fresh milk

1) add milk kefir grains to fresh milk
2) cover with a cloth secured with rubber band
3) leave at room temperature for 1 night
4) next day, chuck in fridge for another day or two
5) strain the grains & transfer the grains to freshly prepared milk
6) the remaining milk is chilled as drink. Fruit can be added here.

Note:
1) if milk kefir is left in an aircond room with constant temperature
     you will get a smooth texture of tau huey

To make Kefir Cheese
1) leave the milk kefir in fridge until it separates into milk & whey as shown above
2) strain & remove the grains, pour the milk kefir into a muslin cloth lined container
     to drip. Leave overnight in the fridge.
3) the thick mass is Kefir cheese which you can use to make spread or baking

Enjoy

GLUTEN FREE CRANBERRY BREAD

A friend asked me for a Gluten Free Bread Recipe...

I like challenges,
so immediately I embark on this mission

After many trials & failures
and 
most importantly
a tinker from Nelson Mansfield, 
I have come up with this
Gluten Free Cranberry Bread


Of course, not forgetting
Dean Brettschneider's 
Gluten free Poppy Seed Bread Recipe
which gave me handles to put together this
Gluten Free Bread Recipe

If you are not into Gluten Free
you may not like the texture except the flavour
because it is not the normal spongy type that you are familiar

If you are, then this is a good loaf to bake.
The crumbs is not crumbly.
It stays well for you to butter it, haha!


Gluten Free Cranberry Bread
A) 120g white rice flour
      30g brown rice flour
      1/2 Tbsp psyllium husks
      2 tsp brown sugar
      1/2 tsp salt
      35g dried cranberry (can double the amount)
      1 tsp active dried yeast

B) 30g soya bean powder dissolved in (I used black bean powder)
     120g hot water & let cool 
      1 Tbsp olive oil
      1 egg
      1/2 tsp cider vinegar

1) In a large bowl combine evenly dry ingredients (A)  
2) In another bowl beat together all wet ingredients (B)
3) mix gently (B) into (A), to form a firm & a little elastic consistency
4) pour dough into a greased loaf tin, cover & leave to proof 60min until almost double
5) bake covered in preheated oven 220'C for 10min
6) remove cover & bake another 10-15min, until the loaf sounds hollow when knocked
7) leave to cool on wire rack

Notes:
Can use soya bean milk instead of soya bean powder & water







WATER KEFIR

WATER KEFIR



Shared by Joyce Ng (Facebook) from Singapore


Just for sharring! 
Benefits of drinking water kefir and using it on your skin


Drinking Water Kefir can help you achieve your optimal health, strengthen your immune system, and help to prevent diseases of all kinds. Most importantly, it restores good digestion - the key to health and longevity. When your body is out of balance, unfriendly opportunistic bacteria and yeasts can take over - producing irritable and bad digestion, food allergies, headaches, flu, skin rashes, and other more serious disorders. 


Water kefir is something you and your family can drink and use on your skin every day.

Inhibits the growth of unfriendly bacteria and yeasts, and helps beneficial probiotic microorganisms to colonise and thrive in your digestive tract, and throughout the test of the body (skin, eyes, bladder, vagina, nose, throat, etc).Contributes to a healthy immune system.Reduces inflammation.Helps with the digestion of food and micronutrients. 

The KEY for health and longevity is good digestion, and a balance of good bacteria are the essential starting point.Heals, or reduces the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome IBS)including bloating, indigestion, flatulence, diarrhoea/constipation, nausea, low energy, muscle aches and pains.Heals intestinal dysbiosis and SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth).Increased energy and overall feeling of good health.Can stop unhealthy food cravings, especially for sugars and sweet foods.



Skin complexion and overall condition improves. Brown liver spots / age spots can fade, as can skin tags, moles, warts etc. It can ease or cure many skin conditions, such as psoriasis,eczema and acne.Hair and nails look healthier, and are strengthened and improved.

Liver cleansing, as in traditional Chinese medicine, thus easing aches and joint pains, and benefiting the eyes.Glandular ( endocrine) system (adrenals, thyroid, pituitary, ovaries) benefits. Women have healthier periods, some women have periods start again after early menopause.

A tranquillising effect on the nervous system has helped many who suffer from sleep disorders and insomnia, depression, ADHD and autism

(1) How To Culture?

First of all, we need to know that Kefir grains love mineral
and do not like chlorine

As such, you will need to get : 
a) raw sugar (which is rich in mineral)
b) bottled mineral water (no chlorine)

No specific brand




To Start




This is 1F 
First Fermentation, sugar water & grains


2F here,
Second Fermentation with added fruits


Notes:
1) 2F can be done in fridge, but need longer hours
2) If you want fizzi drink. do 2F in long neck bottle & leave at room temperature 
    Be careful though, the gas may burst the bottle if you do not open the cover 
    to let out the gas at least once a day!
3) Short term storage:
    Water Kefir Grains wii hibernate in 1F in the fridge, so the grains will stay at the bottom.
    Do not throw away your grains. It is not dead!
4) long term storage 2-4 weeks in fridge, 2F with more sugar
