[@theguzmann]

OMG!! Just finished making our first batch. SO GOOD. We used bokchoy cabbage instead of cilantro, but something tells me the cilantro would have been even better. It was still absolutely delicious. She wasn't lying when she said that the shaoxing wine really makes a difference in the flavor. (it's basically just dry sherry sauce that you can get at your local grocery store.) You can taste it, but it's not overwhelming by any means. The folding was really easy and her demonstration was perfect. My fiancé and I really had such a good time cooking this meal together. Most of the work is all prep, but SUPER EASY. Thank you so much for sharing your family recipe with us. Your aunt is June is a kitchen genius.

Girl u are stunning but that's not all, you apparently can cook the hell outta dumplings. I loved learning about ur culture and all the less shallow things that are you.
