All the wonderful flavors of chicken piccata with the addition of anchovies. Delicious.
That sounds right up my alley. Despite already having a million and one NYT recipes saved, I may have to scan this thread for inspo when I’m back in my home kitchen
I have made that and loved it and need to make it again soon. Thanks for the reminder!!
If it’s any help, you can bookmark threads. (Says she who has bookmarked a lifetime supply of posts )
Oh, I follow it, and it’s pretty active (unlike some other, similar threads).
Easy to keep up
If you haven’t done the dumpling salad with tomatoes, I highly recommend it. You can use whichever chile oil (or other hot condiment) gets you to your desired heat level. You can also play around with the herbs (I like to add cilantro and sometimes dill). And, we’re beginning to inch towards summer tomato season!
I have had it at a friend’s house, and TBH it wasn’t my favorite, but I know it’s very popular here
Maybe our host was wimpy with the seasonings/heat level.
I find it is highly dependent on using dumplings and chile oil that you really like to begin with, and then adjusting amounts of everything to taste (as with any recipe).
I can’t wait to try this once some of my heirlooms are in. Chile crisp and dumplings are two of my favorite things, so I can’t imagine I won’t love it.
What are your favorite dumplings to use? I would probably go with small ones, e.g. TJ’s mini-wontons maybe (?).
Make my own and freeze for when I need them:
Often, I will swap out 1/2lb. of the pork called for and sub chopped shrimp. I like having both in the dumpling.
I usually have pork filling for dumplings on hand in the freezer too, in a pinch.
I purchased a bag of the Bibimgo dumplings (pork I think, but they might be chicken), which may get a try out at some point. It was an impulse purchase.
But, I know what I like at this point for dumplings and it’s easy enough to make them to just have.
Thx for the dumpling recipe! I find WoL very easy to follow, so I may just pop my homemade dumpling cherry this summer
