My sister sent me an authentic Joyce Chen “Dumplings Plus” non-stick plastic dumpling press. Makes Postickers! Empanadas! Kreplachs! Poroshki! Raviolis! and Pasties! I have no idea what these last things are, but you can make them quicky and easily! It’s a plastic form that allows you to crimp perfect dumplings. Can’t wait to try it. Pictures later.

Since Sis likes themes, she included a Pocket Guide to Dim Sum, with a picture of every dish and a pronunciation guide. It’s awesome… I had been toying with doing something like this myself with some friends, but now we can just concentrate on eating.

Lastly, she included Volume 1 of Iron Wok Jan. So far it’s great…and no crotch shots yet either.
