Recipes
Potstickers
- DON'T BUY FROM 88. Jenn Huang thinks they taste like crap (and since she's always right...haha :P jp. but seriously, don't buy them)* if you can, try to make it out to Costco (good time too, gather supplies for frosh dinner and such--Ling Ling Potstickers are pretty good.
- Cooking directions:
- DO NOT DEFROST.
- add a little oil
- arrange frozen potstickers on wok (enough to cover the bottom--not too high cuz then some will be burnt before the other ones cook).
- add a little water (Jenn says "knee level"--but basically like...1/3 to 1/2 the height of the potstickers
- keep wok covered, and put on medium-high heat
- when the frills/edges/whatever you call them get translucent, you can take off the cover. turn the stove down to medium-low
- make sure you shift the dumplings a little so they don't stick, and separate them a bit from eachother
- after the water's gone, watch carefully--you want the bottom to be brown, but not burnt.
- a lot of times, if you're cooking HUGE quantities, some parts of the pan cook faster than others...easiest thing to do is to take out whichever dumplings are done, put the pan back on the stove, and wait for the other ones to finish.
Luo Bo Gao
- buy packs from super 88. a little oil on a hot pan, and fry a little until brown.
Mochi
(take forever...gah!)
- cover a microwaveable bowl in saran wrap (best if the bowl is ceramic)
- mix 1 cup glutinous rice flour with 1 cup water
- Cover with something that's not saran wrap (Jenn uses a ceramic plate). Microwave for 4 minutes.
- On a cutting board (Jenn covers with foil, easier for cleanup), spread some potato starch over the surface
- When the glutinous rice flour is done microwaving, take the bowl out CAREFULLY. pull off the saran wrap, and wiggle the rice flour sticky QQ stuff off (Jenn holds by two corners of saran wrap and just jiggles it a little)
- use two spoons to separate into small globs of mochi stuff! roll around in a little potato starch. with 1 cup of each water and glutinous rice, usually separates between 11 and 14 mochi balls.
- POTATO STARCH YOUR HANDS!!! DO NOT TOUCH GLUTINOUS RICE UNTIL YOU HAVE DONE SO!!! It's sticky and doesn't come off well, so if you touch it it'll hurt like crazy
- stretch lil mochi balls into round sheet thing, spoon a little red bean paste, and pinch the close the mochi. flip back over and make it pretty :)
