making mandoo
making mandoo
i rustled up some slave labor to help out in the dumpling factory. we made three kinds: traditional korean pork & beef, tofu, and my random concoction of shrimp & chives. we also tried to make vietnamese rice paper-wrapped rolls but damn, those rice paper sheets are slippery!
dom and jonna joined us for a korean new year's dinner. i failed to find the right rice to make coconut sticky rice for dessert so we cheated and bought a few portions of black sticky rice from the thai place around the corner. elliot busted out his famed mango-peeling skills, and cindy made a delicious coconut sauce to go with them.
happy new year! it's the Year of the Pig, and we definitely started the lunar new year off oinking, and with pot bellies.
