Gyoza

Gyoza of Fukuya at Festival Mall

Here's the one of my favorite Chinese  food, Gyoza, a japanese styled dumplings. This blog will show to you how I am making it.

Ingredients:
200 grams  ground pork/beef
cabbage
onion leeks/spring onion
red onion
garlic
ginger (optional)
sake or (vinegar)
sesame oil
salt and pepper
soy sauce
dumpling wrapper

This is my ingredients for my Gyoza.. Up to you if you want to use another. Sake can be found at Japanese grocery stores or if not, you can use other like vinegar or just leave it its fine. :P

Procedure:

Cut some cabbage, onion leeks, red onion, garlic in a very small pieces. Mix it with that ground pork of beef  together in one large bowl.

Combine all ingredients together then put the sake, soy sauce, salt and pepper, and sesame oil.
Mix it all very well so that the flavor and ingredients will be even.

To make gyoza already. Get the dumpling wrapper and put a one teaspoon of filling. Make sure its even.
Then moisten the edge so that the both side will stick together.. Use circle wrapper is better than square.. Fold the side of the wrapper for 4-5x then sealed it. then you can check at Google for how to fold the side of gyoza.

How to cook:
Put cooking oil in your pan and place the gyoza. When the bottom of it already brown. Put some water  a half of the pan or half of the height of your gyoza. Wait til the  water gone and your gyoza is done.

For dipping:
Soy Sauce
Calamansi
Chili
Sesame Oil

I really love this food! Yummyummm!!
HAPPY EATING!!

Ginger or Lemongrass?

When my mom cooking Tinola (soup based dish from Philippines), I noticed She used Lemongrass (Tanglad) So I was thinking.. "Oh this one taste good!" Tanglad also can imitate the taste of ginger. As I know  I really love lemongrass in food because of the aroma and the extinct flavor it brings to the food as like as natural taste of the food. My mom said, "I also put ginger but few only cos we are lacking spices here already so I used  tanglad." She said. So I really agree that Tanglad rocks to this dish also. (As we know Tanglad is a mix of Lemon and Ginger. That's why it's taste better.  LOL) I know some people know about this, but I just wanted to share the feeling. :P

Difference of Ginger and Lemongrass

Ginger taste is distinct.. A minimal bitter taste.
Herbal uses: cold, cough, fever, and sore throat remedy. also used for lowering cholesterol levels and nausea.

Lemongrass taste is a mixture of lemon and ginger. Strong and dominant flavor.
Herbal uses: the leaves and it's oil can make medicine. used for treating digestive tract spasms, stomachache, high blood pressure, convulsions, pain, vomiting, cough, achy joints (rheumatism), fever, the common cold, and exhaustion. It is also used to kill germs and as a mild astringent.

Some people apply lemongrass and its essential oil directly to the skin for headache, stomachache, abdominal pain, and muscle pain.
