I was born and raised in Hong Kong. After getting married, I moved to Canada with my husband. Spending time in the kitchen cooking for my husband and my son is a type of happiness to me. Mimicking my childhood flavour in this foreign land brings me comfort. My priority of life is to stay healthy - think healthy, eat healthy, and live healthy. I am also a foraging enthusiast and the author of this blog.
1. Mix the tofu with glutinous flour together until the texture resembles to an earlobe.
2. Roll the dough into many event size balls.Boil them in rolling boiling water until they float onto the surface.Scoop them up and add them to the hot red bean soup.
This dressing is made of silken tofu. The smooth tofu forms a creamy texture while giving a mild soy flavour to the salad. I would say this dressing tastes far better than the non-vegan mayo or coleslaw dressing in the market.

This mousse is a new indulgence in our family. It doesn't contain any cream or sugar, but it gives the rich chocolaty flavour without any empty calories.
The texture and the flavour changes according to the chilling time. If you fancy the soy flavour or a softer texture, enjoy this mousse right away or after several hours of chilling time. If you look for purely chocolatey mousse or a firmer texture, you can leave the mousse to sit in the fridge over night and enjoy it the next day.
