The savory, Asian aromas swirl around as the broth simmers slowly for a heartwarming soup meal. In the Philippines this is a favorite family soup entree or else is sold as popular street food. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/miki-noodle-soup-with-pork-and-chicken-instant-pot-stove-top/feed/ 0 12255 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-homemade-tikoy-nian-gao-for-chinese-new-year/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-homemade-tikoy-nian-gao-for-chinese-new-year/#comments Sun, 03 Feb 2019 23:24:27 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=7591 Tikoy to Filipinos or Nian Gao in Mandarin or else Nin Kou in Cantonese is a steamed Chinese rice cake with brown sugar and sweet rice flour. You can cook this in the Instant Pot or on the stove-top and I share both ways here. In the Philippines, an entire steamed cake is given as a gift for the Lunar New Year to symbolize prosperity and good luck. When we received it, we pan-fried slices to soften it up. Once pan fried, each warm slice was crisp on the outside while sticky soft inside. The yellow coating of the eggs are close in color to 'gold', a symbol of prosperity. The chewy, gummy consistency of the tikoy rice cake are supposed to make sure the luck 'sticks'. We enjoy these delicious, savory strips of tikoy rice cakes served as a snack or side during Chinese New Year. Tikoy is a hearty, heavy and filling snack that's also good all year long.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-homemade-tikoy-nian-gao-for-chinese-new-year/feed/ 5 7591 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-cook-dan-dan-noodles/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-cook-dan-dan-noodles/#respond Sun, 20 Jan 2019 05:10:16 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=7535 If you haven’t had Dan Dan Noodles yet, a bowl consists of thick, wheat noodles, topped with a hefty serving of ground meat – pork or beef. The entire entrée is mixed in a numbingly-spicy sauce which has hints of sweetness. The good thing about this recipe is that you can adjust the spice level and tone it down or rev it up depending on your taste.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-cook-dan-dan-noodles/feed/ 0 7535 https://thequirinokitchen.com/make-spicy-pork-ribs-chinese-new-year/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/make-spicy-pork-ribs-chinese-new-year/#comments Sat, 21 Jan 2017 05:00:59 +0000 http://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=6259 These Chinese-style Spicy Pork Ribs for the Lunar New Year are an attention-grabber on the table.
