The boys have been studying ancient China and I finally went to the oriental grocery for the pot sticker wrappers. We had a blast last night. :) I mixed up some ingredients we had like mushrooms, kale, basil, cilantro, tofu, soy sauce all in the food processor. I dusted a big pan with corn starch and set the boys to work. They were the BEST pot sticker makers in the world. :)
First you spoon some filling onto your little circle of dough.
Then you wet one end of the dough with your brush.
And then with your super cuteness you fold them over and crimp them. :)
I told you, they rocked at this!
All done...now how did the cornstarch end up on his nose and lips????
We did some in the pan with a little oil and water to steam and fry at the same time. And we also made some in the steamer for a dumpling texture. Matthew even made this YUM-O red sauce. It was good you guys.
While we were eating Remy declared that this was the BEST dinner ever!
I finished the meal with carrot and pistachio ice cream. Waiting is the HARDEST part. :) Guys, this was the best ice cream I have ever made. I made a red bean one one time this past July...but carrot ice cream is now my favorite. We have a juicer and so I juiced my own carrots and the fresh carroty flavor...let's just say I almost passed out it was so delicious. That first bite was like falling in love.
Hope we didn't make you too hungry. ;)

Pot stickers, Yum!!! They look delicious. Carrot and Pistachio ice cream? I have never in my life heard of this. Well I love carrots and I love pistachios, so I am sure that I would like it.
Rhonda, you would love it! SOOOOooo, delish!
I am drooling.
That does look yummy!! I love how nicely you always arrange your food.
I am still up at 12:40. I hope you are sleeping!
The potstickers look amazing! I love those.
Carrot ice cream? I love carrots - but I'm not sure that I'd like it sweet (and cold). Did it taste like carrot? Or was it more of a spicy (like cinnamon or nutmeg) taste? I do give you many points for being adventureous!
Those potstickers look fantastic. The carrot ice cream... not sure on that one lol
