度小月的歷史由來

台灣「度小月」源起於1895年的台南,洪氏先祖平時以補魚為生,每年在海象不佳的季節時因無法出海捕魚,漁民俗稱「小月」,為了養家活口,就賣起麵來藉此「度」過「小月」,一開始是以擔仔挑著沿街叫賣,於攤前燈籠上,書寫著「度小月擔仔麵」六個字。由於口味獨道,廣為大眾接受,「度小月擔仔麵」卻成為金字招牌,後來直接轉行賣麵這就是「度小月擔仔麵」的由來。目前已傳至第四代繼續經營。

DAAMI純。油蔥

油蔥酥是台灣料理中不可或缺的一部分,其獨特的香氣和口感,使得它成為許多傳統菜餚中的靈魂配料。『DAAMI純。油蔥』,選用來自台南沿海一帶所種植的紅蔥頭,因長年日照充足、土壤含鹽量較高,所以成就了濃郁獨特香氣。籠面飽滿的紅蔥頭加上切片工藝,完美呈現了“香、酥、脆、甜”等好蔥該有的美好滋味。『DAAMI純。油蔥』純粹以芥花油將專屬於台灣傳統油蔥酥的香氣充分地釋放出來,沒有任何調味,也沒有任何人工添加物,保證了其天然純萃的風味。

選材:台南紅蔥頭的獨特風味

台南沿海一帶因其特殊的地理環境和氣候條件,使得當地所種植的紅蔥頭具有其它地方無法比擬的獨特香氣。長年日照充足,讓紅蔥頭在生長過程中吸收了大量的陽光,這不僅使得紅蔥頭具有更為濃郁的香氣,還使其營養價值更高。而土壤中較高的含鹽量,則賦予了紅蔥頭一種特別的鹹香味,這種鹹香味在經過油炸後,變得更加濃郁誘人。

紅蔥頭的選材至關重要,籠面飽滿、色澤鮮紅的紅蔥頭是製作『DAAMI純。油蔥』的不二選擇。每一顆紅蔥頭都經過精挑細選,確保其品質與風味的穩定,這種嚴格的選材過程,是保證『DAAMI純。油蔥』優良品質的第一步。

切片工藝:技術與藝術的完美結合

紅蔥頭的切片工藝是一門既講究技術,又需要藝術感的工作。紅蔥頭需要切成均勻的薄片,這樣才能在油炸過程中受熱均勻,達到香、酥、脆、甜的完美口感。切片過程中,刀工的精細程度直接影響到最終產品的品質。只有經驗豐富的職人,才能切出每片厚薄均勻的蔥片,保證每一片蔥酥都能呈現出最佳的口感。

油炸過程:純粹的芥花油釋放天然香氣

『DAAMI純。油蔥』的油炸過程選用了純粹的芥花油。芥花油其發煙點高,油脂穩定性高,使得紅蔥頭在油炸過程中能夠充分釋放出自身的香氣,不會受到油脂的干擾。這種單純的油炸方式,最大程度地保留了紅蔥頭的天然風味,讓成品的香氣更加純正濃郁,且芥花油富含不飽和脂肪酸及含Omega-3脂肪酸,有利心臟和血管的健康,多個研究報告都證實,在均衡的飲食方式下,食用芥花油能減低心臟病和中風的風險。

在油炸過程中,溫度的控制至關重要。過高的溫度會使紅蔥頭過於焦黑,影響口感和風味;過低的溫度則無法充分釋放紅蔥頭的香氣。通過精確的溫度控制,紅蔥頭在油炸過程中逐漸變得酥脆,香氣四溢,最終呈現出金黃誘人的外觀。

無添加:天然純正的美味

『DAAMI純。油蔥』沒有添加任何調味料,也沒有使用任何人工添加物。這種純粹的製作方式,不僅保留了油蔥酥的天然風味,還使其更加健康、安全。消費者在享受美味的同時,也能夠放心地品嚐到自然的味道。

無添加的製作理念體現了對傳統美食的尊重和對健康的承諾。在現代社會中,許多食品為了追求口感和保存期限,加入了大量的添加劑。而『DAAMI純。油蔥』則完全摒棄了這些做法,回歸食材的本真,讓消費者感受到最自然的美味。

多用途的美味佳品

『DAAMI純。油蔥』是一款用途廣泛的調味佳品。無論是作為麵條、飯類的佐料,還是加入湯品、炒菜中,『DAAMI純。油蔥』都能瞬間提升菜餚的風味。其濃郁的香氣和酥脆的口感,使得每一道菜都更加美味可口。

在台灣的傳統料理中,油蔥酥常常被用來點綴和提升各種家常菜的風味。無論是簡單的滷肉飯,還是豐盛的年菜宴席,油蔥酥都扮演著不可或缺的角色。它不僅僅是一種調味料,更是一種情感的寄託和文化的傳承。

經典與現代的結合

『DAAMI純。油蔥』既保留了傳統的製作工藝和風味,又融入了現代的品質控制和健康理念。通過嚴格的品質把關和現代化的生產技術,『DAAMI純。油蔥』不僅在風味上達到了傳統的標準,還在品質和安全性上達到了現代的要求。

傳統與現代的結合,使得『DAAMI純。油蔥』既有著濃厚的歷史底蘊,又充滿了現代的創新精神。這種結合,不僅讓老味道得以傳承,還讓它在新的時代中煥發出新的生命力。

『DAAMI純。油蔥』選用來自台南沿海一帶的紅蔥頭,因其獨特的地理環境和氣候條件,成就了紅蔥頭濃郁的香氣和豐富的營養。通過精細的切片工藝和純粹的芥花油油炸,這款油蔥酥充分釋放出了紅蔥頭的天然香氣和美味。無添加的製作理念,保證了其天然純正的風味和健康的品質。

油蔥酥不僅在傳統料理中扮演著重要角色,更在現代烹飪中展示了其多用途的特點。無論是作為調味料還是獨立的美味,油蔥酥都能為每一道菜餚增添獨特的風味和口感。選擇『DAAMI純。油蔥』,就是選擇了品質、健康和美味的保證。讓我們一起品嚐這款傳承百年的經典美味,感受那簡單卻幸福的味道。

Here's Three Reasons Why You Should Read This Book
Format: Hardcover
Actual rating: 4.5 stars I'm going to write this review a bit differently than I normally do, by telling you three things: 1. I am definitely reading more from Julie Buxbaum in the future. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I truly enjoyed this novel. There was so much to love about it, and while the underlying story wasn't revolutionary, I loved the unique way Julie Buxbaum navigated the topic of high school and feeling out of place. There was just something special about her writing style, as well as the characters she created. You will easily fall in love with the story and the characters, especially Jessie (our MC). I never got tired of reading this book, in fact, I actually didn't want to stop reading it! Julie Buxbaum managed to tell a story that was filled with sadness and depth, mixed with humor and fun. Yes, I figured out who S.N. was pretty early on (as I suspect most other readers will too), but this certainly didn't detract from the story in any way. In fact, it keeps you reading because you want to see how Jessie and S.N.'s story unfolds. 2. This book is incredibly real and raw, and that's the reason I loved it so much. “Just because you're strong doesn't mean you shouldn't ask for help sometimes. Remember that.”> Tell Me Three Things leaves you with a whole bunch of emotions all at once. The story instantly transports you back to when you were 16 and in high school (if you're an older reader like myself that is). And honestly, Julie Buxbaum just gets it. She captures exactly how it feels to be on the outside looking in, when you have multiple fears of not only the future but just how you're going to survive in this world where it seems like no one wants to be your friend. She captures just what it means when you hesitate being yourself because your insecure about who you are and you're not quite sure of anything or anyone. “He's more like me, I think: burdened with the realization that what goes on his mind is somehow different from what goes on everyone else's. Even those close to us. And how you can't think about that for too long, because that thought- the truth of your own isolation- is too much to bear.” Countless readers will be able to relate to Jessie because she is you and me and pretty much everyone trying to navigate the crazy world that is high school. Ultimately, Julie Buxbaum created very human characters that show what it means to be a teenager today. It also makes you wonder what if you had someone like S.N. to help you out during your experience. Would things have been different? I wish I had this book when I was 16 because this book would have probably been my lifeline in many ways. But the one excellent thing about this novel is that it reminds all of us to sometimes just let it all go, and let things happen the way they are supposed to. Trust the journey because you never know who might reach out and come into your life. 3. You need to read this book now! I high recommend adding this book to your TBR right away, and the reading it as soon as possible. There is so much to love about this book and I think everyone will have a different experience while reading. Some might not like it, but if you're like me, you'll find something to take away from Jessie's character. It was a quick-read that will appeal to many contemporary fans. This is a story of love, friendship, and finding yourself. But it is also a story of acceptance. Happy reading :)

Because a Nobody is always a Somebody
Format: Kindle
Tell Me Three Things by Julie Buxbaum 4.5 stars!!! “In the Venn diagram of my life, my imagined personality and my real personality have never converged. Over email and text, though, I am given those few additional beats I need to be the better, edited version of myself. To be that girl in the glorious intersection.” I love a good YA, despite my forty-two years of age. When a YA is done well, age is just a number and the story has the capacity to transport you back to your teens and this is what Julie Buxbaum did. This book was the perfect balance of emotion, banter and wit and with poetic prose that keeps those pages turning you will find yourself turning the last page before you know it or want it. “Maybe home doesn’t have to be a place.” Jessie’s mother died two years ago, she thought that was the worst of it, but her father drops a doozie, he has eloped, got married and now they need to pack their bags and move to Chicago to move into the home of her step-mother and her son. Leaving the home she loves and her friends behind Jessie is despondent especially when she sees what a far cry from her norm her step-mothers home really is. “One of the worst parts about someone dying is thinking back to all those times you didn’t ask the right questions, all those times you stupidly assumed you’d have all the time in the world. And this too: how all that time feels like not much time at all. What’s left feels like something manufactured. The overexposed ghosts of memories.” With a mansion, a fancy private school, a pain in the arse step brother and a step mother that just keeps trying Jessie feels like one tiny little fish in an ocean of posh, entitled sharks. Jessie struggles to fit in at school, friendship dynamics that have been born since birth and social standing are hard to infiltrate and with cliques as tight as theirs Jessie was fighting a losing battle. The new girl is the easy target. “Welcome. To. The. Jungle.” Fresh blood in school means new eye candy and it isn’t long before Jessie captures unwanted attention, but it seems she has found an ally, if only she knew who it was. “Somebody Nobody” is her intel, a friend who wishes to remain anonymous and gives Jessie the lay of the land, who to trust and who to befriend. They soon become fast friends communicating only through words, but it is these words that Jessie becomes reliant upon and the more they communicate the more she wants to know who it is. “Perfect days are for people with small, realizable dreams. Or maybe for all of us, they just happen in retrospect; they’re only now perfect because they contain something irrevocably and irretrievably lost.” This was a fantastic read, I adored everything about it and while I “knew” who “Somebody Nobody” was I wasn’t really, truly sure until the reveal happened. You know who want it to be, but the thought of it not being them was heart breaking. “He’s more like me, I think: burdened with the realization that what goes on in his mind is somehow different from what goes on in everyone else’s. Even those closest to us.” Julie Buxbaum perfectly navigates school life and that constant ache to fit in, to be somebody, to be seen for who you really are, not what people want to see. The difficulties of life after death on both child and lone parent and the impact moving on really has. But most of all it was about friendships, the companionships, the highs and lows and finally about love. Getting to know that someone so deeply, without a face, without an image, to sway perceptions…know the person first. Adored it!! “Tell me three things…”

Spoilers ahead...
Format: Kindle
Sometimes in life, you come across a book that is just so good and leaves you smiling for hours after you read it, and Tell Me Three Things is a book like that my friends. And because of that, my actual review is going to be littered with spoilers, so read at your own risk! ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Our story starts with Jessie, who's just moved to California from Chicago because her dad remarried after her mom died, receiving an email from Somebody Nobody (or SN for short) offering her help and advice to settle into her new school. SN is sweet, thoughtful, and intriguing, and soon they leave their email conversation behind and begin IMing. SN knows who Jessie is, but Jessie has no idea who SN is. As she deals with coping with her mom's death, moving across the country, her new stepmother and brother, and dealing with being the new kid, she also tries to discover the identity of SN. Will the identity be obvious to you, the reader? Yes. Of course. This is YA, not rocket science. And if you have an issue with knowing the ending before it happens, then this genre isn't for you. Just like if you have issues with "lots of girl-on-girl hate" as multiple reviews called it, then YA probably isn't the genre for you. She's 16. And has runs in with mean girls who call her names in class and trip her so hard she bruises her face. So yeah, Jessie isn't Gem's biggest fan. Shock-er. I loved how real the issues were in this book, and how well written the teens were as they dealt with them. It seems to be a trend in YA to have more explicit scenes (which I am so not a fan of), but the way that sex was handled in this book was more realistic (still not 100% necessary for the plot, but whatevs). It was raw, it was confusing, it was... everything it would be if 2 16 year olds are discussing it - which, fyi it's Jessie and her best friend Scarlett discussing if Scarlett should have sex with her new boyfriend, and one of Jessie's new friends discussing her experience. Jessie seemed to have this air of maturity about her as she discussed sex with the various friends and in how she handled coping with her mother's death. It's definitely a tear jerker topic, but the author handles it oh-so-perfectly. I adored the character development. On Jessie's quest to discover SN's identity and adjust to new life in CA, she meets 2 new girlfriends (one, per SN's suggestion) and 3 boys. Unlike other reviewers have suggested, there really isn't a love triangle here. Jessie begins to fall for SN, thinks rando Caleb could be SN, starts to like Ethan after they pair up for an English assignment, and starts to maybe, kind of, sort of form an awkward friendship with Liam. She obviously sees SN in everyone, and uses any small clue to try and guess his identity. So again, yes the identity of SN is obvious to the reader (or at least, it's obvious that it's not Caleb), but that's not really the point. The point is to follow a girl through her story, and the author does a brilliant job at steering us through it. The characters, the insecurities, the texting and emailing, it was all just so good! I loved the three things SN and Jessie would share back and forth! Such a cute way to get to know someone new (and then fall for them). I loved the bond that was forged between SN and Jessie, Jessie and her new friends, and Jessie and the new boys. I loved the back and forth of Jessie's feelings as she tried to discover who SN really is. I even loved the awkwardness of all three of the potential SNs showing up when she was finally meeting him. I felt Jessie's nerves as she's trying to get out of answering Liam's question and graple with disappointment thinking he's the SN she's been falling for. I felt Ethan's panic as he realizes what took place right before he arrived and tries to save the situation before Jessie answers. I loved it. It was done so well. Pretty much the only thing I did not love about this book was the ending. It was poetic and perfect, and exactly what the story called for. I just happen to be very selfish and would like more. Like, a lot more. An epilogue would've been nice, but another 2 or so chapters would've been better. I want to know more! I want to see more! I want to see Jessie and Ethan both get a happy ending beyond just their first, sweet kiss. What's the real beef the boys have? What happens to Ethan's mom? How does the meeting of the parents go? What about school? Do things get better for Jessie now that she's with Ethan and officially not interested in Liam? Can I just get a liiiiiitle bit more time with them as a couple? Pretty, pretty puh-leaseeeee? I swear I would still walk away with a satisfied smile on my face. (As a side note, her English teacher really bothered me as a young teacher myself. Everyone can hear Gem coughing her insults and the teacher never once says, "Enough"? Like... okay...? It made me cringe. Some obviously gets tripped in her class, and she asks not the tripper, but the trip to stay behind and talk to her? No, no, no, no. No. And then the way she talked to Jessie the first time... ugh. I'm glad she apologized, but like, lady, come on.) Bottom line is this: it's a story that deals with some heavy topics, and it handles them really well. It's also a book that just plain nails being YA literature. It is sweet, and raw, and authentic. I highly recommend it. To you, to my girlfriends, and to my students.

This book belongs to the top, right up there with Anna and the French Kiss, in my heart of hearts.
Format: Kindle
The story is typical YA. It is written from Jessie’s POV, the lead character. Her dad remarried and they ended up moving to sunny LA where her rich stepmom and stepbrother lives. She left her bestfriend Scar and the rest of her life in Chicago. New school (entirely different from her old one). New people (full of rich kids). New friends? Hopefully. Pretty girl who doesn’t think she’s hot. Has issues with her dad for moving to LA without consulting her. Then come the knight and shining armor to save the day, or should I say knights since there are two of them? One anonymous and one irl (in real life for you). The guesswork on who SN is is not really much of a work for the reader. I think the moment Jessie tried to guess and guessed miserably wrongly is the moment I closed the book (or turned off my Kindle to be precise) and decided to sleep (just so you know, I started reading this before going to sleep and I ended up sleeping at around 60% of the book). It is too cliche for me. Nevertheless, I must go on and finish the book the next day because while the plot is not really a surprise, the writing is really good. Plus I really want Jessie to know SN already and for them to have a happily ever after (I’m a sucker for HEAs). Similar with Jessie, I also prefer writing over talking, so the emails/IMs/texts between the characters are so fun to read. I find re-reading the conversations again and again and again. The use of uncommon words are effortlessly molded in the conversations and I did really look up the meaning a number of times (innuendo, trope, equivocally?, etc.). The poetry discussions – while I don’t really get it, is interesting. I might read The Waste Land one of these days even if just the first paragraph and really try to understand what it means. I may even read a book by Gertrude Stein. A rose is a rose is a rose. The friendships, the relationships, the dad/daughter issues, are all nicely closed and solved in the book (HEAs, yey!). I can imagine them going on with their lives after the book stronger, together and braver. The characters are also so well developed that I understand why Ethan acts strange or why Jessie is insecure, the same with the rest of the characters – Theo, Scar, dad, stepmom. How it made me feel: Overall, this book pulls the right strings and leaves me feeling happy and giddy for them and congratulating them for a life well lived. For letting kismet take over. For taking chances. For knowing who they are and not caring what other people think. For getting to know and being comfortable with each other before actually falling in love. For experiencing death of a loved one but powering through it. For accepting the pain and moving on. For knowing when to say sorry and to speak up even if it is uncomfortable. Jessie is Jessie is Jessie. Ethan is Ethan is Ethan. Rating: ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ (5/5) Comparisons: Tell Me Three Things (TMTT) is much like Anna and the French Kiss (ATFK) but with a deeper issue to deal with since there is death or maybe not since Etienne’s mom is also suffering from cancer in ATFK. I find TMTT more believable or relatable since Etienne’s father is just impossibly worst in ATFK and there’s no such character in TMTT. Jessie and Anna are a bit the same in the sense that they both don’t know they’re hot although come to think of it, Jessie doesn’t have that one passion in life unlike Anna who wants to be a film critic. Etienne and Ethan are both contender for the best book boyfriends but we didn’t see much from Ethan since he is mostly on the behind the scenes life of Jessie. ATFK gave me more butterflies in my stomach while TMTT gave me peace, satisfaction and hope. I’m not sure if I am saying this because TMTT is the latest book I read or not but in any case, I love both books and both of them will be here in my heart of hearts.
