Japanese Siomai

Japanese Siomai. My new favorite.  It’s siomai wrapped in nori (japanese seaweed, the wrap they use for sushi) and topped with (fake) crab. Dip it in soy sauce with mixed lime and chili oil.

Fugu

Fugu is one of notorious and fascinating dished in the world. It originated in Japan.

It is prepared from a flesh of the pufferfish and the flesh itself is edible. But take note this fish is believe to be poisonous so it must be serve properly or in the right way for the skin, liver and ovaries contain lethal amount of poison tetrododoxin. If this amount is consume then the effects would be deadly.

No worries as restaurants only serve Fugu if prepared by qualified chef, having experience of 3 years plus a very difficult exam. This means a chef must be with great skills and precision.

With all this preparations and servings, a fugu is very dangerous and expensive dish.

Interested? Why not try this delicacy then.

How it eat a balut? First make sure it’s hot. Hold the egg and determine the wider end. Break off a piece and put on a rock salt and sip. Once all soup has been sip break off the rest of the egg shell, peel it and sprinkle with rock salt again, the yolk which is firm and the chick is now ready to eat.
