  1. Last night I wanted something quick, good and warm in the tummy as we had
    been working out in the yard for 3 days. Our job finally done. We were
    dirty and hungry. Of course while everyone is showering and relaxing I have
    to fix dinner.

    I was looking through the freezer trying to decide if we were eating out or
    not when I came upon the Costco bag of Ling Ling Chicken potstickers
    (www.ling-ling.com) . On the back was a recipe for Potsticker soup.
    Sounded like just what I looking for. It turned out very good and the
    leftovers were fought over for next day lunch. Man who brings home the
    bacon won.

    Here's what I did. Enjoy, Lynne

    20 frozen potstickers
    6 cups of chicken broth (6 cups of water, 6 tsp of better than bouillon)
    1 cup of water
    1 pkg. of sauce for potstickers
    2 T cornstarch
    1 cup diced carrots, more or less
    1 cup broccoli florets, more or less
    grated fresh ginger to taste
    1 green onion sliced thinly

    Stir together sauce packet and cornstarch and set aside. Bring broth and
    water to a boil. Drop in potstickers and cook for 4 minutes. Add
    vegetables cook a couple minutes longer until tender. Stir in
    sauce/cornstarch mixture until thicken. Stir in ginger and green onions and
    serve.

  2. Lynne- the latest Cook's Illustrated (March & April issue) has a
    recipe for "Easy-Asian Potstickers" which I can't wait to try. Your
    recipe sounds like it'd be a good one to cook along with the homemade
    stickers.

    Their recipe serves them up with a scallion dipping sauce which i'm
    copying for your next potsticker dinner.

    Scallion Dipping Sauce

    1/4 cup soy sauce
    2 tblsp. rice vinegar
    2 tblsp. mirin
    2 tblsp. water
    1 tsp. chili oil (optional)
    1/2 tsp. toasted sesame oil
    1 medium scallion, white and green parts, minced

    Combine all ingredients in a bowl and serve! Kev

    Oh, perfect! I've been thinking of making potstickers lately,
    has been a while and I always just wing it. I have to make
    these, maybe this week. Maybe. Thanks.

  4. I've made homemade potstickers usually do it every January, but the haven't
    this year. I keep the Ling-Lings on hand as they are quite good usually for
    a lunch for me.
