Nutritious Mushroom Soup

   I love eating mushrooms. It is a very healthy food with lots of minerals and vitamins. Mushrooms have been highly regarded by Asians as a tonic food. Nowadays even health companies are cashing in on this growing demand by selling Mushroom tonic pills.  Personally, I will not buy the mushroom pills because I can enjoy eating fresh mushrooms almost every day.





   Mushrooms are very easy to prepare. Normally I would cook it by boiling ( soup) or frying it with other vegetables. Fresh, mushrooms contains high water content, so you do not have to cook it for too long. When you are cooking a pot of mushroom soup, you can add in the fresh mushroom last into the pot. I normally buy oyster or abalone mushrooms for making soup.

   I have written a blog on mushroom soup in my blog at Indonesiapics.com. If you are keen in finding out more, just click the link below:-

Durian is voted an Unusual Food

   The King of Fruit which is the humble durian has been listed in Virtualtourist.com as the No. 5 most unusual food in the world - which is according to the survey that it has conducted among its members. If any organization would to conduct a survey in Asia about durian, then I believe the result will show that there is nothing unusual about it. People in Asia, especially Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia simply love durian, which is why it is given the crown - King of Tropical Fruit. I have written a blog about durian and if you keen to read about it, just follow this link

   By the way, if you have not tried eating durian, you should do so. It is not as horrible in taste as what you may have heard from people or from the postings in some forums. Most people will gradually love this fruit as they try more of it, and thereafter for some people it become an addiction.
