[IMAGE] For Chinese-Canadian pastry chef Jackie Kai Ellis, making dumplings with her family was a “day-long affair” that occurred each time they celebrated a special occasion (and sometimes just because). Though the fillings would sometimes change — particularly during Kai Ellis’ vegetarian stint in high school — the process was always the same: the entire family gathered in the kitchen, each member taking on a different piece of the feast prep. Read this excerpt from her memoir The Measure of my Powers to learn more about how Kai Ellis came to cherish her culture’s cuisine, and scroll down for her generation-spanning dumplings recipe. Pork and Chive Dumplings By Jackie Kai Ellis This is my family recipe, which has evolved over too many generations to count. We are still trying to perfect them. This recipe is a large one, so I recommend getting your friends and family involved, or feel free to halve the recipe. It makes enough for a large feast with some left over to freeze for later.

Finally the third version of a folding book from the instructions in Ruth Smith's series of Folded Secrets booklets is finished. It took a long time as both fabrics and papers had to be printed and painted first. I choose to use my gelli plate for this and you will have seen details from both fabrics and papers here before. This version of the book comes from Ruth's book no. 3 and it is project 2 from this book. She calls hers: Folded Secrets Patterns and Ideas book. You can order Ruth's set of 4 books about folding and twisting from her by contacting her on [email protected]. She accepts payment by UK cheque or Paypal. Above is the finished book. I found a large matching button in my stash for the closure and I used sari yarn too. Here is the book as it looks when you open it, with one twisting pocket open too. As you can see there are 8 twisting pockets in total. And underneath those twisted pockets are folding boxes, two smaller one and then culminating in one large one that is the one shown above. There are 2 of them, one on either side. A detail of the twisted pockets in their closed position. Unlike the previous versions of folding books that I made, this one has pages as well as boxes and pockets and above and below are details of these pages that I spray painted with permanent inks and through stencils. Finally below a view of the back of the book, wrapped with sari yarn.

Have you tried this well liked Taiwanese snack called Snowflake Crisp Milk Nougat (雪花酥 / 雪Q餅)? It is so popular that people started making them at home, especially during Chinese New Year and it quickly went viral all over the internet few years ago. In fact, it is the new trending Chinese New Year homemade treat! Nougat crackers are very popular in Taiwan. Think of a sweet, chewy soft nougat sandwiched between two pieces of salty crackers. The sweet and salty combination is really addictive.
