This dessert has many variations in Asian cuisine; the Chinese, Japanese and Vietnamese all have their own versions.  The one that you can find in Hong Kong style pastry shops contain either sweetened red bean or peanut, with a sprinkling of shredded coconut.  The flavours of the coconut and red bean are reminiscent of the hot red bean soup dessert served at the end of meals in a Chinese restaurant (if you receive fortune cookies, ask the server for the real Chinese dessert); only at room temperature, making it a perfect treat for the warmer months of summer.

We love sushi.  Outside of Japan, probably the most popular is "maki", sushi rice rolled with a nori sheet containing different fillings from seafood to even meat, depending on your taste.  I happen to love the creaminess of imitation crab and mayo mixture with ripe avocado in the California roll.  So we decided to get the ingredients necessary to make our own sushi at home.  Since my favourite food/ingredient is egg, we also made tamago (sweet egg 'omelette') to use as a filling.  We were pleasantly surprised at the results-  our sushi tasted just as good or even better than sushi we've had at different restaurants.  We hope you enjoy this recipe!

Hoisin sauce is sweet chinese dipping sauce that often comes along side Peking duck. Although it can be quite sweet it is well balanced by the savoury flavours of soy, garlic and chilli. We have a jar on hand in our refrigerator at all times and find it makes a great impromptu marinade for any type of meat from pork chops to fish. In this recipe the sugar and salt in the Hoisin sauce help to cure the salmon making the flesh moist and juicy while complimenting the natural flavours of the fish. The addition of a buttery panko breadcrumb crust on top of the salmon adds a great crunch to the final dish.
