Hi there! You've reached Winna's blog!

Winna's musings and experiments on the strange and weird of the culinary world.

Ever had century egg and buttered toast?

Too tame?

Stir fried caterpillar cocoons, perhaps?

This blog will probably feature a combination of eating, tasting, experimenting, recipes, how-tos, research, history and nutrition/health all relating back to food.

Join me as I investigate these gastronomic oddities, and remember to say hi!

Kitchen Therapy (Simple Pickled Vegetables)

Late night clanking in the kitchen. This is what you'll need:

Some cucumbers cut up into lengths. Any other hard vegetable like carrot and celery works too.
Salt and sugar or mirin for a Jap feel.
Vinegar, like apple cider vinegar.
Raspberry red wine vinegar for the lulz.
A clean, empty container.



Salt the cucumbers, rinse then chuck the ingredients in whatever quantity you like (more sugar if you like sweet, more vinegar if you lke sour). Eat some and adjust to your taste.





Sorry about the lack of posts. A full time job is tiring!
