purple.chiffon

so many things going on in your mind and they are all about food. you are like obsessed by food, not entirely in eating them but definitely in making them.  perhaps you have caught a cny bug, that drives you to run to your kitchen and produce something nostalgic. you make a point not to bake anything today, yet he has went ahead to bake his beef jerky (chinese style).

here is the okinawan purple potatoes chiffon cake. first portion went to the japanese inspired wagashi, the remaining went into this chiffon cake. it's been awhile since you last baked one and you know your cake will not rise as high as it should be whenever you add some solid element into the batter.

that said, this is still rather fluffy and airy with a bit of bite whenever you eat the potato cubes.

there're still a number of things you would like to try... you wonder why sometimes festival or even food can bring up so much memories. memory of the past, memory of childhood. and it's such thoughts and memories that drive you working in the kitchen, reproducing the taste and the aroma of home, of childhood.
