Resep Panna Cotta || 奶酪

Sejak pertama kali iseng DIY cookies n cake pas kuliah dulu, ada teman yang pernah request 奶酪 (atau yang belakangan baru tau kalo nama inggrisnya adalah Panna Cotta). Well...berhubung aku sendiri suka mood2an bikinnya, jadi setelah AGAK lama (ya..kira2 3 tahun lah) baru finally dibuat nih 奶酪 setelah ditagihin mulu. Ternyata mudah sekalii!!

Bahan yang digunakan:
- Susu 500g
- Gula 50g
- Whipped cream 250g
- Gelatin 4pcs

Cara membuat:
1. Rendam gelatin dengan air dingin hingga lunak
2. Panaskan susu dan gula hingga kurang lebih 65 derajat, matikan api
3. Masukan gelatin dan aduk hingga gelatin larut (ingat, gelatin dimasukan SETELAH api dimatikan ya)
4. Masukan whipped cream, aduk rata
5. Tuang kedalam wadah dan simpan di kulkas (bukan freezer), tutup wadah agar permukaan tidak kering

Untuk hasil yang aku buat kemarin ini, aku menggunakan susu greenfield low-fat (untuk menghibur diri). Buat yang ga berani minum susu, jangan khawatir, tidak terlalu berasa kok susunya. Hasil yang kemarin dibuat teksturnya aga terlalu lembut bagi sebagian orang (yang mungkin lebih suka bila agak padat dikit seperti puding), jadi boleh juga menambahkan gelatinnya 1 lembar lagi atau mengurangi kadar susunya sedikit. Aku sendiri sih lumayan suka teksturnya..

Selai Stroberi Beli Jadi
Untuk bagian atasnya, cara yang paling simple adalah menggunakan selai yang dijual botolan (aku menggunakan selai stroberi yang ada potongan stroberinya). Tambahkan sedikit saja (sampai permukaan tertutupi agar cantik), tidak perlu terlalu banyak atau rasanya akan kemanisan. Tapi bila kamu memang lebih suka manis, tentu saja bisa disesuaikan dengan selera.

DIY Selai Markisa
Cara lainnya adalah dengan membuat selai sendiri. Kemarin ini saya juga membuat selai markisa:
Bahan:
- Markisa 1.000g
- Gula 500g
- Lemon 1 butir
Cara membuat:
1. Keluarkan daging buah markisa
2. Tambahkan gula dan diamkan semalaman di dalam kulkas
3. Tuang semuanya ke panci, masak hingga mendidih dengan api besar
4. Kecilkan api dan masak hingga mengental
5. Masukan perasan lemon dan terus masak dengan api kecil
6. Simpan dalam wadah ketika masih panas

Karena saya gamau bikin banyak, kemarin ini saya cuma pakai kira2 saja buahnya, dan gulanya saya masukan setengah dari gram buahnya (saya liat ratio nya begitu, gatau sih bener apa ga :p). Saat dimasak, saya merasa agak cair, jadi masaknya aga sdikit lama..dan setelah diingat2, sepertinya saya ga masukin lemon. Hahahahaha... mungkin itu sebabnya kenapa hasilnya aga terlalu lengket seperti permen (Bila bukan karena saya masak kelamaan, soalnya saya liat hasilnya cair dan tidak kental, jadi saat itu saya kira karena masaknya kurang lama..taunya setelah dingin jadi aga terlalu kaku). Untuk menyiasatinya, saya mengambil sedikit "adonan permen markisa" itu dan menambahkan air panas. Perbandingan air panas dan adonan selai ini dikira2 saja sampai mendapatkan tekstur yang dimau. Hasilnya ternyata enak!! Ada rasa crunchy yang datang dari biji markisa, dan teksturnya sudah mengental dan menjadi perfect untuk dicampurkan dengan Panna Cottanya  (walau 2 yang saya kasih ke teman saya tidak saya apa2kan, entah bagaimana jadinya)

DIY Lapisan Mangga
Sebetulnya ini yang mau saya buat!! Sayang saat dibuat, sedang tidak musim mangga :( Well, tetap saja saya sharing ya..Siapa tau ada kesempatan buat lain kali.. *wish*
Note: Buatlah lapisan mangga SETELAH Panna Cotta mengeras
Bahan:
- Mangga 1 butir besar
- Gula 20g
- Gelatin 1pcs

Cara membuat:
1. Potong mangga dengan bentuk kotak-kotak kecil, sementara sisa bagian tengahnya diperas dengan tangan hingga jusnya keluar.
2. Masak jus mangga tadi dengan gula hingga kurang lebih 60 derajat Celcius, matikan api.
3. Masukan gelatin, aduk hingga larut
4. Masukan potongan mangga, aduk rata
5. Taruh lapisan di atas Panna Cotta yang sudah mengeras
6. Simpan kembali ke kulkas

DONE!
Yang mana top-coat pilihanmu? Mudah-mudahan sukses yach...
Cara buatnya mudah dan cepat, dan semua yang makan bilang enak (so far), jadi saya mungkin akan bikin lagi saat mangga sudah musim, well.. maybe :p

Ohya, ada teman yang bilang enak juga dimakan dengan 黑糖 (gula merah?), atau coklat (for choc lover). Just experiment with your own fav flavor *wink*

random thought

Ternyata mendedikasikan diri untuk rutin menulis blog itu tidak mudah, kali ini pun sudah beberapa minggu berlalu from my last blog update ya? Memang sih my friend said, "You don't need to force yourself to write, just write when you feel to" (cukup melegakan dan memberikan peluang untuk mengurangi rasa bersalah karena dah menyia2kan space di ruang internet ini :p), tapi pengen rasanya bisa post more and more..

Bcoz, I really really really want to keep more things in this blog, karena berdasarkan pengalaman di blog sebelumnya, selalu menarik untuk membaca post2an yg lalu. Funny to flash back what happened in those moments, kadang beberapa tulisan bahkan bikin mikir "Ini gua nih yg tulis nih?" Hahahaha...

Luckily, sudah ada beberapa resep yang sudah kami (Yulie and I) buat bersama, jadi untuk beberapa waktu ke depan, I shall upload those experiments.. Coba diniatkan untuk post at least 1 post per week ah.. bisa tahan berapa lama ya... XD

Planning A Surprise

The feeling after making a deal for a surprise is really fascinating. Can't stop smiling when I imagine the reaction of the receiver. Believe that this one is worthed since I've missed the opportunity several years back then. Hahahahaha... still grinning =D Hope he/she will like it, ah! I know he/she will!!! It's very hard for me to hold this joy of secret, i really want to tell him/her what I've ordered and can't wait to see his/her response~~~ ^^ dum dum dum dum...

Horror in the night with Mr C

Just a few days ago, Ting2 n I were cooking our dinner while all in a sudden, a cockroach appeared!! Panicked, our first reaction was jumped back.

it appeared out of nowhere >.<
We can't leave the kitchen bcoz we're in the middle of our cooking activity, but we both have no guts to face this little scary thing *yacks* It freezed, not moved. So I took the bug-killer and sprayed the cockroach.
spray it, kill it!!! >.<
And that was the most stupid thing to do... bcoz more cockroaches were panicked and run out!! OMG!!!! Where were they hid theirselves in the first place????!!!

more were coming out, gyaaa...
Once again we were shocked and run for our life!!! Horror happened when one of the cockroach were trying to fly away!!!

can't imagine if this happened
Have no choice, we wait until the want-to-fly-cockroach moved to safe zone (we couldn't risk another spray would bring more and more out >.<) and I sprayed it too. huufff...

Moral of the story:
When you want to kill cockroach with sprayer, make sure it is alone!!!

maybe they are also a family-care bugs

Sun shines our life, you'll be in our heart

I got bad news last week... :(

August 7th, 2013, one of my ex-classmate in the post-graduated class has passed away. Friends told me she got all the pressure in facing her problems because she would not share her problems and keep all for herself. My heart hurt so bad and I couldn't even believe what I read in the first time I received the text. I mean... She was one of my friends that supported me when I was down, told me not to give up and said she would be there if I need her... Why then this happening to her? Her cool act and smile keep floating in my head ever since I heard the news. I can't believe she has gone now.. She broke our heart and left that scars of regrets. 

After we graduated and I went back to Indonesia for good, our chat history can be counted by one hand. Busy with our own new life, barely update each other news. Oh, how I wish we chatted more. Wonder if things could be different if we did different things? Aiyah... Regrets wouldn't let her back though... Tomorrow, she will take her last journey in this world..

For Sunny:
Before you leave Sun, I'd like you to know that you were the nicest friend I ever had. Thanks for all of your supports and accompanies in that two years. Glad we spent some times hung out together, had dinner and KTV ^^ I won't say that our friendship is as short as two years college life, because where ever you are, you will always be our friend *hug* sometimes in the future, we sure will meet again :) Sorry I can't make it to your 告別式 tomorrow, but many friends will be there for this reunion you made (quote from 維尼's). Wish you are in peace now :) 

Oh, PS, if you happen to meet Jobs, please ask when he will invite iHeaven so we could keep in touch and know that you are fine, ok? :p



For my reader:
Please please please treasure your life. Remember that everything will be okay in the end, if it's not okay, it's not the end. Try to speak up and find support from others before you made silly decision. Treasure your life

Nobody is perfect

Quotes shared by my friend from TW Series P.S. Man:

"There isn’t any perfect woman.
Generally beautiful ones don’t cook.
The one who cooks are not gentle.
Gentle ones don't have own opinions.
If they have opinions they aren't ladylike.
Ladylike ones would randomly spend money.
If they don't spend money they don’t know how to dress.
If they dress well you’d worry
If you don’t have to worry they’d be ugly."

"In other words men are the same too.
Talented ones are ugly.
Hot ones don’t know how to earn money.
If they know how to earn, they don’t care about family.
If they care about family they suck.
If they are successful they are not romantic .
Romantic ones aren't trust worthy.
If you can surely trust him, he’d be a loser."
