Do you have a cold??

Hey, it's getting rainy and cold all over now..
June, June, June,,,Tomorrow is July..days do pass easily, isn't it?..
By any means, did you catch a cold?..Oh no!..
Your nose was all stuffy and you have that green slime coming out of your nose..haha..
Well that's fine..that's what your body do to protect you..


I have a remedy for that.. 
Don't eat cold food/cold desserts yet.. I didn't mean the warm/hot foods that turned cold..but the one's like ice cream..You'd get cold..~shiver~
Don't eat sweet food/sugary food like chocolates, and dairy like eggs..Sweets will increase mucus production or that green yucky slime..Dairy makes it slippery or somewhat like when you pull that little sticky  slime they don't cut off easily. 


Anyway, before it gets way out of the topic..


Did you know that onions are good against colds?..
I didn't mean you have rub it all over your body, sniff it or use it as a facial mask..
You have to eat it, of course..
I like onions but I don't know why?..

Just a little info..
Red onions are smelly..White onions are not that too smelly..They have a little sweet taste.
They are used for cooking to make the food or make sauces/dips a little sweet.
Yep, that's right.
(*Indians love onions but they smell, don't they*..oh no I didn't mean to make such comment..but they sure love to hug people...such tender loving care..i have an Indian friend, well she's nice such black beauty and she's taller than me..T.T..oh whatever, we're getting out of the topic again..)

Where are we?..Oh yeah..I'm going to suggest some food for you..


1. Tofu  

Chowking's Tofu

Do you know the ones sold in Chowking? Have you ordered it before? Yeah that's right that's the one I'm talking about..

That order consist of tofu, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, shrimp paste(i think), and onion.
But did you know that buying tofu and making you own dish is better than ordering. The plump tofu you bought in the supermarket was much better in quality than such too fried crunchy tofu from restaurants.
You can make one, too. All you have to do is cut the tofu in squares and fry it. As for the sauce, mix soy sauce and vinegar, then add the chopped onions, the paste is optional(i don't know what it is that's why it is optional), and sugar. In mixing soy sauce and vinegar, it will depend on the level of saltiness/sourness you want from it. To little neutralize it, you add onion and sugar(optional). Onion can add sweetness to it that's why sugar is optional to use. Of course, you have to let the onions sit still in the sauce so that you wouldn't taste onions that much (it make sense if you don't really eat onions). Moreover, you don't want the taste of onions to overcome the taste of the sauce, if you do that..that's for you to discover why.

2.) Ensaladang Pipino (Cucumber)

This is a picture of the outcome..it doesn't have onions since I just took it from the net. But this time, i want you to add some onions.

A crispy cucumber taste good than the ones that are too soft.
There's no cooking required. You just slice the cucumber, add some vinegar, minced onions, sugar, black ground pepper. It 's up to you to adjust the level of sweetness or sourness..  




Our main goal here is to use onions to get rid of your colds. Hope this helps you.
Because it always worked for me.
