How to Purge Clams
Clams are so good and light in flavor. Unfortunately, they are packed with sand as much as they are light. I made my spaghetti alle vongole (spaghetti with clams) by modifying Chef Pasquale's recipe to fit the Filipino budget. In order to make this simple dish with modified ingredients still have bright flavors, time must be spent in purging the clams. The video below shows how clean and active (and hungry!) my clams were after spending a night undisturbed by curious me.

Having Siu Mai (Siomai) for Dinner
My little one is finally recovering from her sudden flu yesterday. We were to have my homemade siu mai last night, but she simply had no appetite for it.Finally, she's better!
I made siu mai from scratch, and I also made my own chili sauce but without garlic. The ones available in the net had some interesting ingredients that contributed to the taste and aroma of the chili sauce you typically get from Hen Lin or other fast food stalls in the mall.
I'll post pictures next time as, obviously, I'm just starting with my FoodBlogging stint. ;)
