It’s been hot this summer, and I’ve been making these Chinese Sesame Noodles on repeat. They’re perfect at room temperature, with a creamy sesame sauce that clings to every noodle and just enough spice to wake everything up. My cravings for this dish aren’t limited to summer, though. I’ll happily have these for lunch or dinner all year long. And after your first bite, I think you’ll feel the same!
Pork and Scallion Potstickers
I don’t know if I’ve ever told you guys my dirty little secret. It’s true – I am a fiend for potstickers. I’m the problem, it’s me! I am especially a fiend for my Pork and Scallion Potstickers. (Beware: long post below!)
Sesame Beef Stir Fry
Sesame Beef Stir Fry is a simple and easy stir-fry dish. It differs slightly from some of the restaurant versions, which are battered and fried (not that they aren’t delish, too!) This is a fresher take, and I think you’ll love it just as much.
Chinese Black Pepper Steak
East meets West in the restaurant version of Chinese Black Pepper Steak. There’s no doubt that this dish is a popular restaurant item and for good reason. First of all, it’s all about the beef with only an accent of familiar veggies for balance. That gives it a great appeal for many diners.
Soy Pickled Jalapenos – Ed’s Mom’s Stuff
This recipe for Soy Pickled Jalapenos came by way of my sister. It was shown to her by her soon-to-be Mother-in-Law who came to the States from China and ran a successful restaurant with her husband for years before retiring.
