[quote=\"Han Seo\"]On the topic of MSG...


I watched a documentary on MSG the other day on National Geographic. The researcher did a test on a group of people who are allergic to MSG. They brought them to a restaurant and served them Chinese food (supposedly contain MSG; that's why it's known as the Chinese restaurant syndrome) that were not cooked with MSG but which was unknown to the participants. Majority had the Chinese restaurant syndrome. Conclusion: As MSG is also found naturally in food, if you are allergic to it, you will get the reaction whether it is in processed form or natural form.

I guess the problem with any processed food is the shocking amount of salt.

A friend who is allergic to MSG drinks Coke when she can't avoid MSG (eg. wedding dinners). It apparently neutralizes the MSG. Can be a useful tip if you really can't avoid MSG or take some by accident.

That's a great tip! I will try it out next time, thanks![/quote]That's why fast food sells coke as part of its meal. 7-Up and the other Sp... also do help.

Jennifer you must be a great cook! I can almost smell your soups...

:oops: my soups are very simple ones.

Sometimes, it is just plain pork soup. The children do not complain.

Once I overdone the qty of pork bones/meat in a soup, hubby thought I added MSG or taobao from outside. That was the most expensive pork soup I ever cooked :rotflmao:

1. pan fry the fish bones with a slice of ginger
2. once colour changes, add water, big onion, garlic, tomato, dried scallops to bring to a boil

A simple home made soup is still a good soup...beats drinking soup outside anytime. Soups are known to be good for skin. Friend in hk now believes in drinking soup...very convenient, all dump in.

Thanks for tips on fish soup. I am going to thaw my bag of salmon fish head and try out your recipe. Pray it won't taste too fishy or DH will grumble grumble.
