Yam and Radish Rice Cake
In my hometown, the famous yam or radish rice cake always serves with seafood and chilli sauce. Top with lots of pounded roasted peanut, this streets food is one of my best childhood memory.

Traditional Chinese Sweet Potato & Ginger Dessert Soup
This is a traditional favorite in Hong Kong, found in most dessert houses and revered for its heartwarming and revitalizing properties. It can just be as easily prepared at home, and is sure to warm even the coolest of days (though it’s popular all year-round). Yellow, red, and purple sweet potatoes are commonly found in the market, though yellow ones are ideal given its richer flavor. The amount of ginger may be adjusted according to level of tanginess desired. Red dates are natural sweeteners that add more flavor (optional). Raw slab sugar is commonly used in Southeastern Chinese desserts, and can be readily found in Asian groceries. The slab sugar is ideal for this recipe as it not only enhances the taste but also adds a nice golden color. A light, non-creamy, easy and healthy dessert that works great for any time of the day… and especially when you are down with a cold.
Chinese Sponge Cake (Baked, Not Steamed)
My mom used to make this cake when we we were growing up. I love it because it’s light and fluffy. Please note, use an aluminum cake pan for this recipe (we’ve always used an aluminum angel food cake pan). Do NOT use a non-stick pan! I am on a quest to find the recipe for the Chinese bakery cakes. I’m not talking about those Chinese steamed sponge cakes. I’m in search of the fluffy ones that come with the fruit and whipped creamy frosting. If anyone knows this recipe, please forward to me–I will be forever grateful! In the meantime, this cake is the closest thing to it.
