Chayote and Sweet corn soup

Chayote and Sweet corn soup

Yesterday my sister told me that her friend who also love baking has improved her baking skill a lot if compare to last time. I asked her how she managed to improve, she said her friend recently following recipes in the blogs (she doesn't know i own a blog too) and she said that some recipes from some blogs are more accurate than certain cookbooks. I am pleased to hear that we bloggers' effort and harwork is paid off, as we are sharing our true experiences and tested recipes.
Back to today's post. As what I know from Nami (Just one cookbook) who does Japanese's home cooking that usually comprise of rice, main dish and side dishes. But for a Chinese like me, our home cook usually comprise of rice, 2-3 main dishes (can be meat, fish, tofu and vegetables) and soup. Today I would like to share with you this simple Chayote and sweet corn soup that I cook quite often..

Ann drove me to famous bakery ingredients ship Poon Huat and Sunlik to shop for baking stuffs. This was a fruitful trip, i came home with few baking pans, good cocoa powder, ribbon & etc and I also managed to buy a Nespresso coffee machine with milk frother from Takashimaya store with a SGD 50 discount voucher. According to Ann, I was lucky to be in SG this time as SG is having big mega sales right now.
