SPEKKOEK SPICE FOR MY WALNUT CAKE BY BOBBY ANANTA
Spekkoek spice is a blend of mace, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves and Vanilla pods. If you want to make your own spice mix :
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. ground mace (Bunga Pala)
1 tsp. ground cardamom
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
2 vanilla pods
for me.. I just pick up the phone and ask my Mum to blend it for me (I know is far away but it is worth it ) or am I Just being Lazy 😉
Tips : use 1 tsp. of Spekkoek spice for your walnut cake.. Lovely

TISANE by BOBBY ANANTA
In the Javanese concept Herbal tea always shows dark colour, with Tisane bright and fresh colour is a sign of fresh flovour.
The Recipe
A half dried mace (Manisan Buah Pala), (chop and soaking), crush a stalk of Lemongrass, few spring Mint and Orange Zest.
Pour over 12 fl.oz of boiling water … remember.. it isn’t Wedang Uwuh so don’t let the tea brew too long.
PORK BELLY (DID I RUIN THOMASINA MIERS’S RECIPE)
It was because of The Observe Magazine that I read it at work.. never cook with lard before (honestly) and 500 gram *bloody hell* eeeeekkkkkk.. and just change thyme with lemongrass. (Did I ruin it.. I dont think so)
