Tom Yum Goong Noodles (quick and easy to make)

Every time I eat something delicious, I love to replicate it. Ever since I was hooked by a bowl of Tom Yum Goong noodles, I have been obsessed with it. After returning to Guangzhou, I tried many restaurants, but I could never find the unique flavor in my memory. This bowl of noodles has become an unforgettable "white moonlight" in my heart. I tried to replicate that sour, spicy and fragrant taste again and again.

In just over ten minutes, I can cook fragrant Tom Yum Goong noodles. Whether you want to slurp noodles, or use them to shabu-shabu seafood or cook mushrooms, it's easy to do. No need for complicated seasoning, even a kitchen novice can easily control it. This version of Tom Yum Goong fresh noodles is the result of laziness and deliciousness, try it now~

Grilled salmon head with lemon

The salmon head with attractive color is roasted until golden and crispy, with the edges slightly curled up. The high temperature forces out the fish oil, leaving attractive amber lines on the skin, which is crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. The fresh fruit acid of lemon juice instantly penetrates into the fish meat, neutralizing the greasiness while awakening the taste buds; dip a mouthful of sesame salt, and the salty and fragrant particles burst on the tip of the tongue. Paired with a little wine and a drink with teammates, it is comfortable and satisfying. Watching teammates squint their eyes and praise "drunkenness and dreamlessness", at this moment, there is no need for gorgeous words, the happiness in the fireworks is quietly overflowing, and food and company are the most healing appearance of life.
