Green Satay Sticks


22 April, 2010

What is your favourite ice-cream flavour? When younger, superior dominance by the shade green, I would fizzle out squeaking: mint ice cream. But what is it really; in addition to green blinding of any taste preferences, I have completely no two threads when making such a remark.

Mint Chicken Sticks (SGD 5.00, usually selling at 6 an assortment)

It is until now, mint is actually a plant; its oil menthol. (Hence the all-star mint mentos). Peppermint; a hybrid, has more 'cool' factors. Used in Middle Eastern cuisine or atop savoury British cures; here, mint garnishes the meat, (turning it green!) together with chopped mint leaves and vinegar for the mint sauce(see the wasabi-snaky creature). Most importantly, its leaves range from green, grayish-purple, blue to yellow (not necessarily green!!) It was a surprise to find chicken skewers in mint, having coaxed the stall owner to order all green sticks, which outrightly cut his craft for some reason here at the Flyin' Bread selling flyers(bread wraps with meat inside).
