CNY Day Seven Auspicious food (人日 七菜羹)
Most Chinese are very superstitious, I know we are a weird bunch, many of the things we do and eat around CNY can all relate to some meanings, mostly something to bring auspicious lucks. Any thing bad is usually avoided or not permitted like no sweeping around the house during the first few days of CNY, this will sweep away any lucks!. Bad luck food is stir fried squid 炒魷 because another meaning

Gedatang 疙瘩湯 is a Northern Chinese (like Beijingnese) speciality. Many eaten this for breakfast or comfort noodle type soup.疙瘩 ‘ge da’ has various meanings in Chinese like a knot on a rope or some skin problems like warts, lumps or pimples.

Sinigang Na Hipon - Filipino sour prawn soup
I reckon there is at least one sour soup recipe in every S E Asia country. I had Chinese hot and sour soup and Thai Tom Yum numerous times, tried the Vietnamese Cahn Chua not too long ago and last weekend I had the Filipino version of Prawn Sinigang which was very refreshing and tasty, not as herbal and fragrant as Thai or Vietnamese but is a keeper will try again with other combination.Sinigang

Looking at the plateful of ingredients above, isn't that colouful and tasty combination? This is more or less the typical ingredients for the popular Vietnamese sour fish soup called Canh Chua. It's very refreshing similar to tom yum but less spicy (unless you throw in lots of chillies). I was reading up on this when writing the last post on S E Asian Ingredients and found many different recipes
