Furthermore the length of the blending is variable since different blender has different blending power, but if I have to recall, its about 3-4 mins till you see a uniform green and the leaves are very finely shredded. When I say fresh coconut milk I mean buy freshly grated from wet market and squeeze it out yourself.Honey Bee Sweetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07611185580466977913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1452934552254010109.post-81063273672991253182012-01-05T07:49:44.710+08:002012-01-05T07:49:44.710+08:00I bought the packet coconut milk (found at the fri...I bought the packet coconut milk (found at the fridge area) from NTUC.

There is a bad coconut after taste and thinking the coconut milk is bad, I tried again yesterday after getting a new pkt of coconut milk. The outcome is the same. There is this 臭油 smell...

But I know the grocer in Scotts Isetan in Orchard & Mediya are both selling quality black sesame paste. Alternatively, use the same amount of black sesame powder which is selling in bakeries supply stores or in Shop & Save.I've not seen the one in Sheng Siong, so I can't advice u on that.
