One of the best things about the Foodie Penpal program is getting a window into others' lives and cultures. This month's both from Soonya was a perfect example--Soonya's family is Mexican-Korean, and the box included foods from both cultures.Soonya included a wonderful handwritten note (how I envy those who have better handwriting than I do, which is pretty much everyone) explaining that the miso soup was great served with a rice mixture that included jasmine, brown and sweet rice along with barley. The ramen packets were deliciously spicy--David cracked one open the day the box arrived and ate it with leftover brisket.
The honey, which is made in California, is from a Mexican-run plantation. It includes a gorgeous piece of honeycomb and I am looking forward to having it in tea.
Soonya was also thoughtful enough to include two cans of cat food for Ingrid, who turned 18 two weeks ago. My gorgeous Siamese cat has been with me since I was 22--almost half my life. She's a little slower and grayer, but still sassy and a fabulous companion. I'm lucky to have her.
Thanks again to Soonya for a fabulous box!
Yum,I´d go straight for the honey, but lots of interesting ingredients there. Can´t wait to see what you´ll make with them.
ReplyDeleteIngrid looks like a real sweetie. My cat is 19, and becoming more kitten-like every day!
I love your cat ... I used to have a Siamese too, and he was the sweetest. Oooo honeycomb - sounds like an awesome package!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely and thoughtful exchange. It is such fun to get a taste of another culture. Ingrid is just a little beauty. I told my cats I expect them to stay healthy and be with me for 20 years!
ReplyDeleteIs gonna be fun for you interesting ingredients, I can wait what you create with these stuff :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great box of goodies! How thoughtful to include something for Ingrid. (My feline love-of-my life is keeping my feet warm as I type but is also about to electrocute herself by biting the laptop cord!) Gotta love 'em!

ReplyDeleteDigestive Enzyme are Enzyme that break down polymeric macromolecules into their smaller building blocks, in order to facilitate their absorption by the body. Digestive enzymes are found in the digestive tracts of animals (including humans) and in the traps of carnivorous plants, where they aid in the digestion of food, as well as inside cells, especially in their lysosomes, where they function to maintain cellular survival. Digestive enzymes are diverse and are found in the saliva secreted by the salivary glands, in the stomach secreted by cells lining the stomach, in the pancreatic juice secreted by pancreatic exocrine cells, and in the intestinal (small and large) secretions, or as part of the lining of the gastrointestinal tract.
