You can't have too much sweetness in your life ^^ (well, as long as you can moderate it, haha). Don't you know that there are many kinds of Thai dessert that you can make at home without requiring special ingredients or equipments. Most of them are easy, and yes most of them need coconut milk. The rich and lightly sweet coconut milk is the key, and o ne of my weakness is rich with sweet and salty taste from coconut milk in  Thai dessert, every times I start eating, I don't know how to STOP!  And yes, this recipe is one of them,  Sweet Sticky Rice with Coconut Milk Topping: ข้าวเหนียวหน้านวล.

Dry Bean? You may want to ask me, why do we have to pay attention to it? For me, I love bean, haha, esp. after going to Japan so many times, I find it delicious, versatile and it's healthy too. Last week, I had a chance to participate in  "Creative and Healthy Menu Development with U.S. beans" by The Culinary Institute of America (CIA) in Phnom Penh, Cambodia (Nov. 22-23), 2018, at Academy of Culinary Arts Cambodia (ACAC). That's held by  U.S. Dry Beans Council .

We (me and other participant) arrived in  Phnom Penh at 9.00 am and after checked in at  Raffles Hotel Le Royal Phnom Penh Cambodia, and h...
