I made Chinese vegetable dumplings then hot & sour dumpling soup with them. I flubbed both a little by not letting the dumpling wrapper dry a little & then cooking them too long. Many fell apart or barely held together but it was still very good. Recipes below 1/3 #foodsky #cooking

The soup uses some interesting non-western technics. Hot oil I poured over raw garlic & pepper flakes, a soy-vinegar is mixed in then the dumpling & some of the water they boiled in are added. 3/3 thewoksoflife.com/hot-sour-dum...
Both recipes are from Woks of Life. I used store bought dumpling wrappers (skins?). I have extra filling & might try to make my own wrappers & make them thicker so they don’t split open. 2/3 #WoL thewoksoflife.com/vegetable-du...
The recipe was from Woks of Life. I especially like to share their recipes because they’re free. The peppers are all long peppers aka horn pepper, those light green long & twisty ones. The heat level between removing the seeds or keeping them is like night & day 2/2 thewoksoflife.com/beef-bamboo-...
Just like I have a go-to Chinese takeout place, I have a go-to place for Chinese & Chinese-American cooking & recipes, Woks of Life which I’ve seen called the Bible for Chinese home cooking. The sauce & the right fresh noodles are key to this recipe. 2/2 thewoksoflife.com/chicken-lo-m...
My latest read. This was a charming book. It was short, a novella I suppose from 2001. The premise of the story seems absurd, removing letters of the alphabet & criminalizing their use, but seems prescient in these days of book bans & LGBTQ erasure. Thanks @bklynlibrary.bsky.social #booksky #BPL
NYC restored & re-opened the observation deck of the David Dinkins municipal building, one of the main building for NYC government, today. Centre360 they’re calling it. I was the in first group up there. Here’s the view to the north, east, south & west.
I made another Chinese dish. I think the delivery guy from my usual takeout place is going to request a wellness check since he hasn’t heard from me forso long. This is chicken lo mein & it’s the Chinese-American version. I found good fresh noodles for it. Recipe below 1/2 🍜🍽️ #foodsky #cooking
I came home last night & as I walked into my apartment I noticed it smelled faintly like a Chinese restaurant lol. Food like this, beef with bamboo shoots & peppers, might be the reason. It’s only 3 ingredients plus seasonings, so it cooks quickly but is tasty. Recipe below 1/2 🍜🍽️ #foodsky #cooking
This Chinese stir-fry of beef with bamboo shoots & peppers is savory, tasty, and quick to make—perfect with steamed rice or rice porridge!
This chicken lo mein recipe is surprisingly easy to make at home and tastes as good or better than the restaurants! (Recipe and VIDEO)

These vegetable dumplings are some of the best we've ever tried. The recipe is made with simple ingredients, and you'll never have to order takeout again.
