Since I don’t have a kitchen, I’ve been spending lots of time in my mom’s kitchen, which explains all the Chinese recipes up recently. Every time we get together to write down one of her recipes, we discuss which one we’ll do next time. As we brainstormed, my mom started thinking we shouldn’t do certain recipes because she felt like my non-Chinese audience might not like it. Things like tripe, pig feet, duck feet, pig ears, or innards might be unappetizing to some. Dishes with fermented flavors or unfamiliar textures might be hard to handle. I thought about it and decided that I want to share as much as I can, and you can decide which recipes you want to make, right?

There’s nothing “weird” in this Basic Mei Fun (very thin rice noodles), but Lon did not like it. By itself, the flavors are indeed very light, but it’s often served with condiments. Basic Mei Fun~6 to 8 servings condiments vinegar (distilled white, Chinese red, or Chinese black)oyster saucesriracha or sambalhot oils 1. 2. 3. Fortune Cookies with Love. We’re on a tight schedule of recipe themes here, moving right on from Superbowl, to Valentine’s Day, and don’t forget Chinese New Year (or Lunar New Year) is the same days as V-day this year. I knew as soon as I took my last bite of Un-fried Buffalo Wing, I’d start thinking about hearts and good fortune.

Can I combine the two into a loving Fortune Cookie? Don’t we just feel so efficient when killing two birds with one stone? You can say I love you and Happy New Year all at once, making your own customized messages and fortunes. My fortune cookies are loosely based on this recipe, ingredients being very similar, but process being different.

Red Dumpling Sauce. When I first realized that Chinese New Year and Valentine’s Day is on the same day this year, I thought, oh no! Disastrous! Would I have to share my V-day with others? Would Chinese New Year get pushed aside at restaurants? The sky is falling! When the Chicken Little in me finally calmed down, I realized that this was not a tragedy at all.

First, I was already warned that with our new apartment purchase, I was not getting any more presents in 2010, maybe 2011. Chinese New Year always means a delicious banquet and it still would. After making my Fortune Cookies, I also realized that this was an opportunity, that may not come up again in years, or ever…to make V-day and Chinese New Year foods, dual purposed or dually symbolic. For New Year’s, it’s symbolic to have dumplings because they look like yuan bao, gold ingots used as money in ancient times. Sweet chili sauce is not very spicy, but the fresh ginger and garlic add another layer of kick that does build up. *recipe scales easily. Ma Po Tofu. *above picture was added (old removed) 11/16/13 Ma Po Tofu is actually very easy to make. It’s one of the first recipes I asked my mom to teach me.

It’s a little difficult to give you exact measurements for the recipe though. There are so many types of tofu, from silken to firm, all giving off different amounts of water when cooked. All of them taste good. It’s just a matter of preference. The picture above is one made with medium firm tofu, which Lon prefers.

Ma Po Tofu~2 servings Ingredients 5 ounces ground pork2 tablespoons soy sauce + extra2 teaspoons cornstarch + extra1/2 teaspoon sugar1 teaspoon vegetable oil1 box or block of tofu (usually 1 1/4 – 1 1/2 pounds without liquid), cut into 1″ squares1/2 cup water2 cloves garlic, minced2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce1/2 cup frozen peas (optional)rice for serving (optional) Instructions In a small bowl, mix together pork, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 teaspoons corn starch, and sugar. Veg Potstickers.

I made these vegetarian potstickers with mushrooms and tofu for a vegan potluck a while ago, and they were completely gone about 2 minutes after they hit the table! These vegetarian potstickers are little steamed dumplings similar to Japanese gyoza. Unlike traditional Chinese potstickers, I like to steam these rather than pan-fry them, to make them lower in fat. Whether you call them steamed dumplings, Chinese potstickers or Japanese gyoza, you may want to make a double batch, as your guests will call them "yummy! ".
