Milk Ice Cream

I like the taste of my usual ice cream but it is too rich for me with this hot weather. I tried a new recipe today. The ingredients had a little bit less fat than usual. The ice cream was slightly harder and just the right taste for summer.

Pork with Daikon Sauce

I sauteed pork and mushroom for dinner today. The sauce was simmered grated daikon and wasabi. The daikon became sweet after it was cooked and it gave the pork a good flavour.

Ginger Preserve

I made ginger preserve differently this time. I cut the ginger into strips instead of grating it. I was surprised that the ginger preserve was much hotter than usual. After I boiled and changed the water twice, the ginger was OK. I usually don't have to boil my grated ginger preserve. It was interesting.

Beans

This picture below is of white kidney beans and sugar boiled gently together. It is my husband's favourite and I bought it for him.

Jelly

I made pear jelly today. I always miss jelly in mid-summer. The desert is cool for the eyes too.

Cumberland Pie

I was going to cook cottage pie today but I put shredded cheese on the top at the last minute.
I didn't know that if you add cheese on cottage pie, the name will be changed. We both enjoyed the pie anyway.

Sweet and Sour Meat Ball

We had an early dinner and went to see some fireworks this evening. I was excited about the trip so I don't remember the taste well.
