Perut Ikan - An artistic delicacy



Making this is a lot of effort.. hence, you dont find this dish nowadays. Even if you do, it's not as good as it should be... This dish is judge base on the cook's ability to balance all the fragrant leaves, rempah and taste, savory, sour, bitter and sweet and her skill of cutting! Oh.. this is all about the cutting!! Daun kadok, daun kunyit, daun kesum, bunga kantan, serai and lots more have to finely cut. Something that it rather impossible for me to do if there is no aunty! Hehehe..


Perut Ikan means fish stomach.. people those days eat every part of anything.. nothing is gone to waste or thrown away.. Everytime, a fish is cleaned, if its stomach is big enough, it will be preserved. The process of preserving the fish stomach is tedious and long to ensure it does not get contaminated or rot... so, again, it's all about skill.... There is no measurement for people then... they perfect their skills by observing.. It is an art!!


To cook this, a lot of work... and it will take a few ladies sitting around the kitchen to make it happen.. hahahhaa.. some will be peeling and pounding, some will be slicing, some will be washing and frying... ooo.. you cannot imagine the work.. but the end result is always a big pot of treasure!! Lovely treasure that will get better as the days goes by..


This is not something I will sell.. no amount of money is worth the effort and patience. But I am lucky to have learnt and watched how this dish is made... long time ago by my aunt's mom and now my aunt... and hopefully one day I will make it and someone will learn... passing on the skill, knowledge and art of making something so great....

Casa De La Smurf!





Nat has gotta be the most creative and cheeky 5 years old I have ever known.. wel, beside me of course! Hahahaa.. Nat is the same owner of my pink convertable car cake last year and yes, it was Nat that told me she wanted a convertable car that is pink! Hahahaha... So, this year, she told me she wanted a mushroom house with smurfs and smurfette in it... wahhh!!!


The challenge about this cake is the mushroom top.. it was a tricky work.. but nevertheless, after 7 hours of cutting, shaving, shaping, I got it right! Hahahahaha.. well, right to Nat's standard. The other challenge was half way working on this cake, it poured!! poured big drops of rain with strong wind... OOooo.... it this trouble or what??


Thank God I finished the cake relatively fast as the rain poured the whole night thru... Praise the Lord!! the cake stood majestic and proud and not too much of melt down from the humidity...


This orange butter cake weigh in at 4.2kg and was sold for RM550.. There were plenty of wastage from shaving, cutting and shaping the mushroom house.. ..

Birds at war!!




The newspapers said that Angry Birds are the IN thing now and hence, the whole weekend was spent creating and shaping these birds. I am seeing birds now! Hahahahaha... These birds are not easy to shape as there are many small details that gives them character and omitting them simply wont do justice. Hence, the tedious work of putting in all these small details.

This vanilla butter cake weigh in at 2.8kg and was sold at RM300 and the 43 kids that it was suppose to feed had a great time... as per Ivan's aunt's feedback. Hehehehe..
