INTERVIEW WITH @J.FOODIE99
Your tagline mentions your recipes are 70% healthy and 30% indulgent — how did your journey with food start?
Everything started ever since the pandemic. My makeup career totally stopped. Instead of continuing to feel stressful and depressed, I decided to heal myself with food. I started to create my own ritual of life by cooking, taking photos, videos and recipe-sharing on my IG account. Most of my posts are about my healthy daily eats. Sometimes I do indulge myself with my favorite foods too. That’s why my tagline mentioned 70% healthy and 30% indulgent.
Any tips to your viewers on living a health-conscious life?
There is such a strong connection between happiness and food. Healthy eating can be fun and creative, but don't forget to indulge yourself with your favorite food every now and then. Be happy and wise with the food choices you make. You deserve to nourish your body with the nutrients it needs to lead a healthy life.
Personal tips for your recipe viewers when working with Matcha recipes.
As the health benefits of Matcha are endless, it's definitely great to consume it in your daily meals!
How did you come up with Coconut Matcha Yam Latte recipe?
I have some left over yam paste while making the Healthy Wakoucha Yam Cake Recipe, so I decided to try out to use it for drinks.
How did you find using AJISAI / Matcha powder for the recipe?
The high umaminess and creaminess of AJISAI / Matcha blends very well with the coconut milk and yam. Every sip is full of satisfaction.
