Intoxicated effect

Last Sunday I thought I were going to have a heart failure (or seizure). Not a good experience for me.

My Foochow confinement lady been first time cooks kacangma was not so experienced and experimental in cooking this dish.  Usually I would use about 1-2 rice bowls of white wine and add water to my kacangma. But for confinement, kacangma must be purely wine. No water added.

So last Sunday she cooked a whole kampung chicken for kacangma and used up one bottle of wine. Her logic is not enough soup if use half or so. Alcohol evaporated when heated up so ended up less soup in kacangma. But my CL been adventurous, pour the whole bottle and the wine reduced to 1/3 after done.

I did not know she used up so much into my kacangma. After less than 20minutes after meal I felt funny. Heart beat fast, head pounding and I felt warm and light-headed. It lasted for about 30 minutes or longer. I do not remember how long I lied on the bed! I should take picture of myself then. All red. Red-faced  that is!

Been curious I asked her that night. And I almost fainted when she told me she used 1 bottle of white wine! Damn! Now I know how been drunk feel like. *wink*

Luckily it is just too much wine and not something else. I have not been drunk before so I also do not know what it feels like.

I stop ordering kacangma from the local chinese stalls in Kuching already because many of them cook them with pure wine, with no water added. I couldn't eat it. Huhu!

Throughout my whole one month of confinement my mom did not even finish ONE bottle of rice wine. Only used half... your CL used ONE bottle at one go! @_@

Been trying to figure out what kacangma is but still can't. Malay name? Is it wine chicken? I didn't have confinement after my childbirth, nor ate any of those confinement food. My parents are quite westernise so we don't really pay attention to the traditional stuff; I took care of the baby with the help of my hubby & my mom helped at times.

My sis-in-law just gave birth few mths ago & didn't engage confinement lady too. But she ordered confinement food from the hospital. I thought it's interesting to share :)
