Nyob Zoo! Hello!

Nyob Zoo! Hello!

It's Cindy Her!

Nyob Zoo! My Name is Cindy Her. I’m a full time Pastry Chef in the Pacific Northwest and creator, recipe developer, and video producer for C.HerCreations (C.HawjCreations), a digital platform dedicated to Hmong food and storytelling. I specifically focus on Hmong food I grew up eating but I also venture into other South East Asian food as well. As a second generation Hmong American woman, my goal is to teach you what Hmong people love to eat, what we cook, how we cook it, how it has evolved, and how we enjoy it. So welcome to my food blog! I want you to learn a little bit more about the Hmong food culture and I hope you all stay tuned on this culinary adventure with me.

What’s good

Hong Kong, Your food was fun, simple, and very n Hong Kong, 

Your food was fun, simple, and very nostalgic. I was also very impressed by the fast and super efficient service. Getting our food in just 2 minutes was awesome! Wished I stayed a little longer since there was so much to choose from. So many places I couldn’t go to since our stomachs couldn’t fill anymore. I’ll be looking forward to the next time I come back. So here’s to good food with great people in a super retro hustling & bustling city. If you’ve been to Hong Kong before, let me know some of your favorite places! 

Places I went to: 
Lan Fong Yuen 
Cheung Hing Kee Shanghai Pan-Fried Buns 
Tsim Chai Kee Noodle 
@timhowan.hk 
Disneyland Hong Kong 
@2cafe.hk

Spring is officially here!! And that means it’s ti Spring is officially here!! And that means it’s time to get the garden ready! Here’s a little motivational video to hopefully get my plants growing just as good as my puj. Just look at her lemongrass plant! So healthy and lush. 

My mom and I are planting ginger this year so we’ll see how that goes. Grandma grows ginger every year and she said (in the video) that she usually starts them in March or April and let them grow all the way through late summer/early fall. She’ll buy a few fresh ginger roots from the store and place them in a rectangle planter with some soil over a heat pad until it starts to root/sprout out. Once it starts to sprout, she’ll then put it in a pot of soil, in her green house and let it grow out. So that’s what I’m doing so far. Let’s hope they grow just as good as the ones she showed in the video 🙂 

What will you be planting this year? Let me know!

🌸HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM 💝 The woman who taught me so 🌸HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM 💝

The woman who taught me so much about Hmong food, love, generosity, kindness, strength, hard work, sincerity, and patience. The woman who taught me to fight for what I want and what is right. She is an inspiration. She deserves all the happiness in the world. 

Remember the 3 cakes I baked my mom last year? Well… I didn’t bake her 3 cakes this year, but I did book a small studio so we could take some photos wearing our beautiful Hmong outfits together. My mom has been collecting Hmong clothes all throughout her life; ones made by her, her mom, and her sisters. They are all so unique in their own ways. My favorite ones are all the more traditional ones. This photoshoot was kept simple wearing our Moob Moos Pheeb outfit with the chicken comb hat made by my grandma. 

Besides our food, traditional Hmong clothing has long been one of the most meaningful ways we have preserved and expressed our cultural identity through intricate embroidery, the vibrant colors, and distinct designs and styles. It’s been our way of storytelling. Being able to share this photoshoot with my mom as a birthday gift to her was and will always be special. So let’s wish Mama Chao a happy birthday! 🎉
