Recipes

Trying out a recipe is one of the best ways to get in touch with the history and culture of the food, not to mention enjoying its delicious taste thereafter.  This is a growing collection of Singapore traditional recipes.  Some are familiar favourites, others are forgotten with time.  In this collection, I have also included recipes which may be more recent but are distinctly innovative Singaporean creations.  A fine example of this will be "Yu Sheng", the Chinese New Year Raw Fish Salad.  Have fun in your kitchen!
