A must have dish when you have dim sum breakfast! Juicy, tender and savory sweet spare ribs with fermented black beans served in a small dim sum plate, now you can enjoy this same authentic dish at home!

This is a dish you often see at dim sum restaurants, steamed bean curd rolls — also known as fu pei guen (腐皮卷) in Cantonese. It's made by wrapping a savory filling in bean curd skin (tofu skin or yuba), then steaming it in a flavorful sauce.It normally has ground pork and shrimp, but you can put any protein you want in this. The bean curd skin is delicate and it has a slight chew and very silky texture.This is a great dish to make for a low carb meal!

My 7 year old students asked to make Asian dumplings and pot stickers with a homemade garlic ginger dipping sauce today. Seeing as how I currently have 3 deep freezers full of Asian dumplings - together we all made an easy, crazy delicious DIM SUM brunch!That's right. Super fluffy, moist pork, beef and seafood dumplings, pork & vegetable wontons with spicy pot stickers and of course, bean dumpling desserts to boot! Hell, not to forget all the dipping sauces my students created! Anyway, here's an easy way to steam them all!All of these crazy delicious Cantonese dumplings were served alongside several homemade spicy chilly sauces. Excellent work kiddos! One of my favorite brunches to date! I really do mean that!For added dips - consider my, "Mike's Thai Basil Loose Pesto Condiment." Or. my, "Mike's Nam Prik Sauce." My students made both today and all of their dips turned out fantastic! They even canned some for later reserves. They're so much better with rest time! See photos at base of recipe."Jiaozi," a wonton or potsticker."Banh bot loc," a large seafood and pork filled dumpling."Daifuku," a sweet bean desert dumpling.

Much like chicken feet, chicken neck is enjoyed in parts of Asia- Braised in a flavorful aromatic sauce then stir fried in it's drippings. It's great with beer or as a twice-cooked Adobo, or added to fried noodles, or enjoyed as is like dim sum chicken feet.

I referred to the Taiwanese "YTower" website for this recipe.Please fry around 15 dim sum at a time. If you put too many in the pan they may go gooey. I fried mine in 4 batches. Recipe by Hideko

I harvested a lot of alpine leek.Since these wanton dumplings can be used in many different dishes, I make a lot of them and store them in the freezer.Press out the air while wrapping the fillings, so that the dumplings won't fall apart easily when you cook them. If you boil them in rapidly boiling water, they may break apart.Reduce heat to medium after adding the wanton dumplings.They can be stored in the freezer. Recipe by Mamipo-

You can fill Chinese buns with any filling you like. I made carrot buns this time. They were delicious.Be sure to let the buns rise (2nd rising) until they've doubled in bulk. Let the buns rest in the steamer with the lid on after they're done cooking - don't take the lid off right away! For 12 buns. Recipe by Masako Bishoku

This is another recipe for buns. The taste changes depending on how you cook them! These griddle-cooked or pan-fried buns are just as soft and fluffy as steamed buns, and they are hard to mess up too! They're easier and quicker to make than steamed buns!If the buns are hard to wrap, reduce the amount of filling.The chopped chives tend to become soggy, so mix them into the filling just before you form the buns. For 4 servings, 12 buns. Recipe by Masako Bishoku

Daikon radish mochi cakes with dried shrimp or bacon chips are delicious too, but I love plain ones that really highlight the flavor of the daikon radish.Use a heatproof container or any suitable container you have as a mold. Adjust the steaming time depending on how thick your cake is. You can also wrap the cake tightly with plastic wrap and freeze it. This goes well with chunky ra-yu or chili garlic oil.

Gross? Well, it's popular in Asian cultures. Try it! 😬Did u know that cooking dimsum style chicken feet involves a long process of cooking (fry, brine, braise and steam)? This version shortens it so you can enjoy chicken feet at home...in the shortest amount of time possible. Lol

Just a classic deep fried dumpling with pork and shrimp for the filling. But, chicken or even vegetarian (chives) dumpling are also magical.
