Pork Dumpling Soup

On January 30, 2012 · 1 Comment

As a food lover, I’m always reading about food.  Wednesdays are pure gold when the newspapers typically do their food sections but on a day-to-day basis it’s all about blogs.  Truth be told, I rarely make things that I see on other blogs.  Usually I just get inspired by what I see and either [...]

Stir-Fried Shanghai Bok Choy with Ginger

On August 18, 2010 · 4 Comments

So to accompany my not so great pork belly I made bok choy.  I’ve always enjoyed bok choy but usually buy the big heads.  This time I thought it would be fun to buy some baby bok choy and stir-fry that up.

Thanks heavens I did because my pork belly verged [...]

I try to eat vegetarian at least a few times a week.  You wouldn’t know it by some of the meat heavy dishes that I make but I do enjoy eating meatless.  I’m actually thinking of doing another cleanse or fast in the new year.  My body has been slower than I’d like and [...]

One of my guilty pleasures [...]

Barefoot Bloggers: Chinese Chicken Salad

On April 16, 2009 · 2 Comments

Somehow I’m totally a week late posting this!  Not sure how I got the dates so mixed up in my head at all.  Clearly I did not ace this one.  I have to admit, I wasn’t looking forward to making this recipe in the first place. McKenzie of Kenzie’s Kitchen chose this recipe [...]

Szechuan Spicy Bean Curd

On January 9, 2009 · 3 Comments

A few months ago I acquired a copy of Helen Chen’s Chinese Home Cooking . I’ve had a few Chinese cookbooks over the years but I’ve never thought that any of them really captured what I was looking for.  I love greasy, Americanized Chinese food.  I freely admit it, nothing to [...]
