Ok, so that might be a really gross tittle, but I find it apt. I can't remember who it was, but there was some way-too-cool-for-school hipster talking about how gross the Ped Egg is. Well I think its really cool, and guess what y'all? My dad just gave me one.
In other news, I made my first attempt at making dumplings today, and I have to say, they were pretty good. The dough around them was a little too thick, but other than that they were delish. Here's what I used:
Dough:
2 cups of all purpose flour
a pinch of salt
Boiling water
Filling:
Ground pork
Ginger, minced (I so nearly wrote ''Ginger, minge'')
Garlic, minced
Scalions
an egg
some corn starch
cabbage
salt
soy sauce
and what i did was this:
I made the dough using the flour, salt and boiling water. Then I needed it. Or did I kneed it? Whatever, I massaged the hell out of it. It was very relaxed by the end of the session.
Then, I combined all of the filling ingredients in a bowl. I made flat circular pads out of the dough and then filled them with the pork. I steamed them in a wok with a steam screen covered in cabbage leaves, for about 10 to 15 minutes.
Oh, I also made a dipping sauce out of a clove of garlic (minced) and the same amount of minced ginger and soy sauce.
It was a quite tasty meal, accompanied by Nopal (cactus) salad and coconut shrimp with orange chipotle sauce.
Thats what I did today.
I also found out about taking a course te get a teacher's degree to be able to teach english to my fellow mexicans. That should be fun.
