First Chai in Bohol
I just moved in to my new digs here in Tagbilaran, Bohol and Marky just brought all my personal stuff from Cebu City. This is my first time to run wild again in the kitchen. Compared to Siquijor, my kitchen is bigger since it doubles as the dining area as well. First project? Masala Chai!
ChatGPT
Masala Chai is perhaps the pinnacle of tea preparation, given its deeply intense flavors and exotic ingredients. The myriad of infused Indian flavors is nothing short of complex and layered. I have my own recipe of Masala Chai, but this time, I used ChatGPT's recipe. The ingredients it uses are just about similar to mine, but the ratio and preparation are different.
In theory, ChatGPT should have already synthesized all permutations of the Masala Chai recipe that is available online. And from its mega-database of just Masala Chai, it produced this recipe. Just how 'perfect' could this be? Let's find out.
NOTE: After trying ChatGPT's recipe, I had to tweak it according to my taste. Below is my recipe basing it from ChatGPT.
Ingredients:
1st Boil (Spices)
2nd Boil
3rd Boil
Before Serving
Preparation:
Ending Thoughts
Verdict? It's not bad. It's fairly decent, but nothing out of the ordinary. I would say that Starbuck's Chai Tea Latte tastes better (but I'm not taking out a loan just to afford their tea). I'm not sure how ChatGPT's algorithm works. Does it simply average-out all the Masala Chai recipes in its database to come up with an average Masala Chai? Or can it discern the best recipe and present that instead? From hereon, I'll keep improving my own recipe. When perfected, I'll post it.

Tom Yum Soup
(September 6, 2024) I miss Thailand and I miss Tom Yum Soup. In Bohol, Philippines, it's challenging to make this soup from scratch since not all ingredients are locally available. Luckily, prepackaged Thai sauces, pastes, coconut cream and noodles are available at ICM Mall in Tagbilaran. This is the first time I'll be cooking Thai cuisine. Crossing my fingers....more »»
