yes it is -
Hi Mama Mangia - What a stroke of good luck! In browsing through some of the recipes on the forum I happened to stumble onto this one and was tickled to death! Just about a week ago I was looking for a recipe for Pot Stickers and couldn't find anything. Even walked across the street to the tiny Chinese Restaurant and asked if they could point me in the right direction. Since I'm deaf and can't read lips of people with accents very well I couldn't really understand most of what the owner told me but I think it was something along the lines of, "I'll tell you my recipe when pigs fly!" So thank you for this one.....it'll be a wonderful help in serving up a Chinese meal!
You're very welcomed - and when the pigs fly, may they crap on his head! I don't like people like that!
I usually just use a basic pasta dough but if I'm feeling lazy, I'll use Wanton wrappers.
I'll try this again because my first response to Mama Mangia flew off into cyberspace, apparently, so now I can respond to her and to IC at the same time. First of all, Mama, you made me laugh for the first time in a couple of days! I'd had a catering job turn into a nightmare for me a couple of days back when I made a stupid mistake and didn't take an oven thermometer to the job with me (didn't realize the client's oven was nearly 50 degrees off) and subsequently wrecked a fragile souffle. I've been beating up on myself since and nothing's been very funny until I read your response to my original post to me.....we have lots of seagulls along the ocean seawall where we live and my Chinese neighbor's car gets blessed periodically - no flying pigs, though!
As to the use of wantons - what a good idea. I have a tendency to take the quickest route to completion whenever possible. Thanks for the suggestion.
