My Inheritance
For my family, food is not just a meal. Its also an excuse for us to gather. Been in the religion mix family is a bless, there are always occasion to celebrate, when so, everyone is busy with cooking tools. No matter its Hari Raya, Christmas or Chinese New Year, you can bet that the whole family will be mostly in the kitchen preparing a feast. Even the youngster are involved, its definitely a family affair.
But most of the all, we cherish our traditional food. All of the dish in my family are prepared with respect and care. Here we goes, now we are getting to the serious part whereby i am revealing the family secret. This recipes or all the dishes are simple but it has been in my family for hundreds years and they are methods of preparation, curing, steaming, all sort. The ingredients are mostly unique and may not be found in your supermarket. But don't worry, you can improvise it with other stuff as it will be a long flight to the jungle of Borneo. Some the famous traditional food among the Kadazan is Hinava, Noonsom, Pinaasakan, and manuk Lihing soup. A mouth of new words, we'll get to it soon.
For more, i will share some of my family daily dish that you can enjoy all year around. I would say i am not that traditional person as i like to experiment and mix match ingredient.Don't tell my mum. And of course i am learning some of the Burmese delight in the meantime as well.
