Korean Dessert: Injeolmi

I was so thrilled that I finally make this dessert successfully... The first time I made this dessert.. I failed.. I had to give it to my chickens... It was so crappy that am so afraid of making it again.. I couldn't figure out whats wrong with it as I follow the recipe to a "T"..

Today, I decided to try it again one more time, and the same thing happened. So I use my God-given brain to think of a way for it not to happen twice and it works!!!

Am so excited that I made a vlog of it!!



I reckon it must be the environment where I live, and the recipe originate from a Korean lady that lives in a different state so, I have to modify a little of the amount of water use and the time for microwaving it. I guess my microwave is too strong or something that I've to cut it from 3 mins to 2.5 minutes.

Anyway, it works and am eating it right now.. Definitely delicious!!!

If you can't succeed the first time, try and try and try again until you make a mess and succeed!!! Thats call determination.. oh YES!!!!

Coconut Agar-Agar

I made this agar-agar yesterday night since I couldn't sleep... It's made of seaweed and it's great for this hot summer days..

You can get the agar-agar in powdered or in it's natural form. The one I made here is in powdered form and it's yellow in color.. The intructions and measurements are in Metric unit and not English. For the US folks, below are the conversion of the measurements as found at the back of the package.

1 liter = 4 cups of water
250 grams = 1 cup of sugar

Here I use coconut milk about 1 cup. First you have to cook the agar-agar until it's boil. Then you separate them: 1 cup to mix with coconut milk and the other is just plain cook agar-agar. I also use mexicorn or corn in the small can about 1 cup or so to your liking. Then pour it into your desired mold.

Let it cool before you refrigerate. Once cool for 2 hours, then you refrigerate. The reason being: never put hot food in the refrigerator because it would deplete your fridge coolness and would make your fridge not last as long as it suppose to especially the freeon.
