Foolproof Sesame Seed and Cheese Grissini
I love grissini, but they don't have them at my local store often, so I made them myself.Adjust the thickness and length of the grissini however you like, but if you make them thicker, make sure bake them for longer.You can decrease the amount of sesame seeds and cheese, but if you increase them, it will be hard to blend into the dough.

Coconut Milk Pumpkin Soup with Dumplings
At home, the Chen couple has a piece of land~ E-I-E-I-O~Lately, it's been a pumpkin overload. The pumpkins (golden pumpkins) from the family farm are in full harvest, so we need to find ways to use them up quickly.This time, I didn't peel them in advance. Steaming them with the skin on takes time to remove, so I just left it on—after all, the skin is nutritious.

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
Have enjoyed this recipe since I was a kid. Can't remember a Halloween that my mom didn't make them! This is one of my recipes that I've never really measured the quantities for because my mom never measured so could never tell me herself. What's listed is based on eyeball guesstimate while adding. Lol. If you want them bolder or lighter in flavor adjust seasoning accordingly, but I would leave the butter at the same ratio.
