Most sweet rice desserts only use sweet rice flour (note: “sweet rice flour” is made from sticky rice), but for mochi, the dough needs to keep its shape, so a little cornstarch or potato starch is also required. And as far as filling is concerned, you can go with what you like. This buttery pumpkin filling is pretty awesome, but I know a lot of people love red bean filling....
Baby potatoes are tossed in ranch seasoning and baked until they’re tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. You’ll Need Only 4 Ingredients Potatoes: Baby potatoes have thin skins that don’t require peeling and are less starchy than other spuds, but Yukon golds or russet potatoes will work too as long as they are cut to the same size. Seasonings: Buy or make homemade ranch seasoning mix (and avoid the artificial flavors and preservatives)....

Pork sausage, biscuit mix, cheddar cheese, and milk meld together, then bake to a golden perfection. Ingredients for Sausage Balls Sausage: You can use either breakfast sausage or mild or hot Italian sausage. This recipe also works with turkey sausage. Biscuit Mix: Bisquick is ready-made, but a store-brand baking mix works too. If you don’t have any, make a homemade biscuit mix recipe! Cheese: I love using sharp cheddar cheese as it has lots of flavor....
Alas, even some restaurants in Chinatown don’t cook this dish right, and instead you get a bit of a soggy and oily dish where you know the person behind the wok was just going through the motions. Judy’s father, a retired construction worker, found a place that used to do this beef stir-fry justice, and he went there every day for lunch whenever he worked in the area. My father’s last restaurant actually did not have scallion beef on the menu, but he cooked it frequently for dinner for us after the place closed....
In this quick article, we’ll talk about what it is, how it’s used, and how to find it at your local Chinese market. What Is Seasoned Soy Sauce? There are many different kinds of soy sauce that may have additional seasonings to enhance their flavor. For instance, Indonesian sweet soy sauce (kecap manis) is flavored with galangal, star anise, and other aromatics. The seasoned soy sauce we’re talking about here, however, is Chinese seasoned soy sauce (蒸鱼豉油, zhēng yú chǐ yóu), which is meant to be used in Cantonese/Southern Chinese cooking for steamed fish and seafood dishes like our Cantonese Steamed Fish Fillets, our Steamed Whole Fish, or Steamed Scallops with Glass Noodles....
Posted Nov 27, 2020, Updated Nov 04, 2024 This balsamic slow cooker pot roast is the most delicious crock pot roast I’ve ever had! It’s healthy (allergy-friendly), and can be prepared and cooked overnight in the slow cooker. I usually start this roast cooking just before I go to bed on Christmas Eve (or the night before any holiday or hosting a meal). Then, when it is finished cooking in the morning, I shred it, make the gravy, and then reheat everything when it’s dinner time – making the holiday meal very low-stress so I can enjoy every moment with my family....
In short, it’s an incredibly flavorful, protein-filled, mushroom-meaty vegan dish that may just be better than its animal protein equivalent! Surprised? Not more than we are… A Vegan Version of One of Our Favorite Fish Dishes Hunan-style Steamed Fish with spicy duo jiao pickled chili peppers is one of our family’s FAVORITE dishes. I know that sounds superfluous coming from a food blogger, but it truly is one of our all-time favorites, and we regularly make it at home and order it at our go-to Hunan restaurant....
What Are Chinese Rice Cakes? Rice cakes are one of my favorite ingredients. If you’ve never had them, they’re basically little starchy, chewy disks or ovals made from sticky rice. I like to describe them as a kind of Chinese gnocchi. They can be added to soups, hot pot, and stir-fries, and I’ve always had them prepared in a select few ways. Growing up, we had sort of a “standard” rice cake stir-fry, usually made with pork, mushrooms, and vegetables....
These spinach noodles aren’t just a fun color, they’re a great way to add a little bit of extra veg to your meal, without sacrificing flavor or texture. Versatility! Fresh green spinach noodles are harder to find in grocery stores, so it’s great to make them at home. What’s more, you can use these noodles in Chinese dishes (noodle soups or tossed noodle dishes) OR as pasta in Italian-style dishes....
When my daughter Sarah and I blogged another recent recipe, Stir Fried Chinese Green Beans with Pork, we had it for lunch. As we were commenting on how great those crispy pork bits were, another dish suddenly came to me! Why not put those tasty crispy pork bits on top of some smooth, delicious steamed eggs? It only takes 3 minutes to steam the eggs, making it perfect for this time of year (less time over a hot stove, though this dish is comforting in any season)....
Korean cooks make a version of this dish that is on the sweeter side, but I prefer this Chinese version, which is salty and savory—and very addictive, if dried anchovies are your cup of tea. Finding Dried Anchovies My first encounter with this dish was about 35 years ago, while working in the garment industry as a production coordinator. My two Taiwanese co-workers, Jessica and June, often brought this as part of their lunch....

Seriously, this is the best strawberry milkshake ever. It’s rich and creamy with a bold strawberry flavor completely naturally imparted by real strawberries, strawberry jam and strawberry ice cream. Use organic ingredients to skip the preservatives & artificial colors and flavors found in restaurant shakes....
Every time I make Jello, I wonder why I don’t make it more often. I always associated Jello with kids, but the truth is that the minute I take one bite, I can’t stop myself from scoffing down the whole thing. AND I also noticed at the grocery store that there is LITE Jello! How did I not know this?? It’s practically zero calorie! I would have loved to make these guilt-free treats but I couldn’t find blue LITE Jello....
We all love Tang orange juice. So this salad has Tang-based dressing. It has a nice sweet and sour taste. This is my favorite salad from my Aunt’s collection of recipes. It is easy as pie and tasty as heaven. I have chosen my favorite vegetables and fruits to make it but you can choose according to your preference. Like, you can add more lettuce or iceberg leaves and cabbage....
Note: This recipe was originally published in February 2016. It has since been updated with metric measurements. What Is the Lantern Festival? The Lantern Festival is the 15th day of Chinese New Year, which falls on Friday, February 26th this year. It’s also the last day of the Chinese New Year celebration. Hundreds of well-lit lanterns of all sizes, shapes, and colors fill houses, streets and alleyways. Performers on stilts, dragon dancers, street entertainers, and food vendors gather in a celebratory pandemonium that’s an expression of hope for a healthy and prosperous New Year....
While the oven often sits in exile throughout the summer (because let’s face it…it does heat up the house a fair bit, and who wants that when it’s 96 degrees and humid outside?), fall/winter is the time to really put it to work. We’ve actually built up an arsenal of baking and roasting recipes that we’ve kept under wraps until they became seasonally appropriate again, and this is one of them: Thai Roasted Chicken Thighs....
