The thick batter mixes quickly with an electric mixer and bakes in under an hour. The result is a buttery-fragrant rich, dense cake that is crisp on the outside and chewy-gooey soft inside. Some say this cake is similar to the Filipino cassava or bibingka, and this is why it's a personal favorite of mine for potlucks, family gatherings, after-school snacks, or a dessert for dinner. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/butter-mochi-cake/feed/ 2 85317 https://thequirinokitchen.com/chinese-barbecue-pork-char-siu/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/chinese-barbecue-pork-char-siu/#respond Mon, 16 Jan 2023 03:47:55 +0000 https://thequirinokitchen640.e.wpstage.net/?p=83500 This is a homecooked, easy recipe of the Chinese Barbecue Pork - Char Siu, those delectable, rich, salty-sweet pork slices popular at restaurants.

Similar to the Filipino classic pancit bihon or sotanghon guisado, this is a dish which has cellophane noodles and assorted vegetables. The term japchae is Korean for mixed vegetables, I was told. I cooked the egg omelet, and the vegetables and beef strips individually, then mixed them all together with the noodles at the end. This noodle dish is a good balance of sweet-savory flavors, with crisp vegetables and silky noodles all blended together. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/korean-japchae/feed/ 0 82311 https://thequirinokitchen.com/crab-rangoon-lumpia/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/crab-rangoon-lumpia/#respond Sun, 11 Sep 2022 21:58:04 +0000 https://thequirinokitchen640.e.wpstage.net/?p=82211 Crab Rangoon Lumpia is my version of the crab puffs often on takeout menus. I used Filipino lumpia wrappers to encase the thick filling of cream cheese, crab meat, scallions and seasonings. After firming up in the freezer, the lumpia logs are deep-fried and ready in minutes.
