I also have a lot of preserved foods, things that will keep for a long time like dried fish, seaweed or lotus seed. ↗

I don't like to waste anything. Any food left over from the night before is always eaten the next day. ↗

I have a lot of cooking tools. In fact I have a whole drawer full of knives. Cooking tools, especially cutlery, are my toys. ↗
