Red Velvet Cream Cheese Bundt Cake



This rich, velvety red velvet Bundt cake with sweet cream cheese filling swirled throughout and cream cheese frosting on top is the ideal recipe to make when you want to say, "I LOVE YOU."

The name "red velvet cake" is quite lovely. This cake is always sold on Valentine's Day because it looks like it matches the flame-like red rips. I had this dessert for the first time on the day of my relative's engagement. I uttered "WOW" after the first taste. To me, this cake ought to be offered year-round, not just on Valentine's Day. If it contains a spoonful of love and happiness, it can be prepared at any time.

If the elegance of macaroons is the reason for its capture of the heart, then the red velvet cake is the essence of returning to the food, giving you a beautiful taste. Unlike other cakes, the red velvet cake has a very low density and delicate as velvet.

The traditional velvet cake is exceptionally buttery. However, I'm not using butter; I'm using cooking oil. The best thing about using oil is that I can store this cake in the refrigerator, especially since it contains cream cheese in it.  And I can just take the cake out of the fridge and serve it right away. It is a little cold, but it is still nice and soft. Of course, you can serve immediately, and store the leftovers in the refrigerator.

If you look beyond the striking appearance of a Red Velvet Cake, you will find that it has a very mild chocolate flavour (it contains just 3 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder. This cake's exceptionally moist and soft crumb comes from the use of buttermilk. Buttermilk has a rich, tangy, and buttery flavour along with a thick, creamy texture. You can use yoghurt or sour cream as a substitute if buttermilk is not readily available. You can make a good substitute for commercial buttermilk by adding 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup (240ml) of milk and letting this mixture sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before using.

The "Velvet" in this cake, which is both visually appealing and unexpected on the inside, is truly deserving of its lovely name.

Nyonya Sticky Rice Dumplings

This is my version of Nyonya Zongzi. The taste is very different from salty meat Zongzi. When the first time I taste it, it is incredibly tasty, it’s slightly spicy but not too sweet. It has a strong spice flavor due to the fact that of using whole coriander and white peppercorns which were toasted and grinded into powder form. The biggest difference between the regular Zongzi and Nyonya Zongzi is in the filling -- one’s savory while the other's sweet. The regular salty Zongzi normally includes pork belly in a big piece, mushrooms, dried shrimp, chestnuts and salted duck eggs. And include a lit bit of five spice powder for some fragrance. The Nyonya Zongzi includes braised minced pork, dried shrimps, candied winter melon, and the strong spice from the whole grinded coriander seeds and white peppercorns is the key to the greatest flavor. And it comes with a blend of sweet and savory, with aromatic spice notes and a hint of sweetness. The blue and off-white appearance with a ...

Salted Egg Yolks Fried Wings

  There are some leftover salted egg yolks after the Dragon Boat Festival. Salted egg yolk fried wings straight pop into my mind. Egg yolk chicken wings are really flavoring explosions, highly praised for its unique flavor, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and tempting with their salty and fragrant taste. Other than the flavor that driving everyone’s insane. The key to this dish is to double fry the chicken wings until they are golden and crispy before coating them with a rich sauce of salted egg yolk and season them to make every bite full of rich taste and irresistible flavor. Since the fried chicken is mixed with salted egg yolks and melted butter, I must admit that this is a really greasy dish.   Eat this sparingly, then. I cut and divide my wings into mid wings and drummets. And I am going to give a shallow cut on them for better penetration during the marinating. Just oyster sauce, soy sauce and white pepper make up the basic marinade for the chicke...
