30 Day Carnivore Challenge : Day #12

My lunch today was a sirloin steak. Unfortunately for me, this particular cut of steak was sourced from another supplier, which I shall not name because it was not good.


Yes, it was cheap, well cheaper than Feast Market's pricing. Steaks are never cheap and if you buy very cheap, as I have learnt, you will not enjoy the steak.


As you can see, the meat was very lean. The sirloin was tough and tasted quite flat. But I have yet to try their ribeye, so I shall reserve comment till then.


I may have to find other ways to cook my stash of sirloins which are sitting in the freezer.


Ah, let me show you my new stock of Bread & Butter Pickles. I also picked up a bottle of Whole Dill Pickles. These are gherkins pickled with some dill added. I hope I like them, I am sure I will.

Now dinner. Same old same old.


Beef tendon soup again, peppered with chopped daun sup and a dollop of fried shallots. And of course a few dashes of pepper.


This is the advantage of cooking tendon soup yourself. You get to enjoy as much as you want. 


There is plenty of collagen here. When I took my container out from the fridge, the soup was rock solid, like that very firm Japanese (konnyaku) jelly hah..hah... I simply transferred everything to my favorite Korean stone bowl and steamed in my electric steamer. Kautim!

  1. Oh, very sedap. I would just eat your beef tendon jelly cold in the jelly form. Will be very tasty. I am now tempted to buy the whole dill pickles. Looks tasty and super appetising.

    2. Maybe you could try eating it cold in jelly form if you want to try but I think it will take getting used to if not used to eating cold savoury dishes.

    1. My next soup will have more tendon. I want the benefits of the high collagen content.
