Jiaozi (Chinese Dumplings) With the Chinese new year in just a few days I thought that it was about time to practice my dumpling making skills. Jiaozi or Chinese dumplings, consist of a filling, generally a ground meat, that is wrapped in a thin wrapper and sealed by pressing the edges together or by crimping and they are commonly served with a dipping sauce. The dumplings can be cooked by frying them, steaming them or boiling them. Although steaming or boiling them is probably a little better for you, I prefer the fried version as the bottoms get nice and crispy and when they are fried they are often referred to as pot stickers.
Dumplings are a popular New Years dish and since they are one of my favourite Chinese dishes it was the perfect excuse to make some at home. There are near limitless fillings that you can place in dumplings but I was dead set of including shrimp in mine. One caveat with this recipe is that it takes a bit of time to wrap all of those dumplings so you need to plan for it. Directions: 1. How to Make a Sourdough Starter: Day One. Today we begin the great sourdough starter experiment. The goal of this experiment is to catch some wild yeast and try to keep them happy so that they will multiply. By harnessing the power of wild yeast in a sourdough starter, we’ll eventually be able to bake bread without using any commercial yeast at all. That’s what traditional sourdough is – a bread leavened by wild yeast. The process can be very technical and scientific, but I’m not going to delve into all those boring details right now.
Instead, we’re just going to jump in and get started and I’ll explain things as we go. There are several different ways to create a sourdough starter and I don’t know that any one method is truly better than the others. Here’s how I started: I mixed one cup of whole wheat flour with 3/4 cup of room-temperature pineapple juice in a bowl until everything was well blended. Want to create your own sourdough starter?

You would not believe the waffle ideas that are constantly bouncing around in my brain. It’s sort of ridiculous. And, obviously, by “ridiculous,” I mean fabulous. You guys should totally come live in my brain with the delicious waffles. Before I get all crazy on you with the strange-but-delicious waffle recipes, I thought it’d be best to start with the basics. This waffle recipe is the one. Light and crispy and tender, but not mushy or soggy.
The secret, I believe, is the addition of corn starch (makes it crisper) and the whipped egg white (makes it lighter). If you don’t have any of those fancy things, just bust out the wire whisk and hand it to your husband. Other than that, these waffles are simple to prepare and they are worth every single muscle ache you may or may not end up with after all the whisking. Print Save Ingredients: Directions: Heat the oven to 200°F and heat up the waffle iron. Lightly adapted from Fine Cooking Don’t miss a post!

Pumpkin French Toast Bake. Pumpkin french toast = breakfast of champions. Take my word. Remember my 7-ingredient muesli bread? Well, it’s making another appearance in this pumpkin french toast. Chopped up into cubes, it makes the perfect base for a very fall breakfast. I’ve always made french toast the traditional route: dip bread into egg batter and fry right when you’re ready to eat. But, making it the day before and baking in the morning is actually a lot easier. The ‘batter’ consisted of several free range eggs, a healthy dash of milk, a scoop of pumpkin butter and plenty of pumpkin pie spice.
You guys, it’s possible that I’ve never been so excited to hop up out of bed on a Saturday to preheat my oven. As you can see, it turned out phenomenal. Topped with a little maple syrup (agave or honey) and it’s phenomenal. If there’s just two of you dining on this breakfast, simply cut the recipe in half or even one-fourth for a more appropriate serving size.
