I don't eat pork what can I replace it with? Can I replace it with chicken or beef? And i can't find bucho what can i use instead?

[@Maangchi]

Use green onion for buchu (garlic chives). Yes, use chicken or beef. Good luck!

My friend Lily made hot pot when my boyfriend and I visited her home a few years ago. The next day, we had Mandu for our hangover breakfast. 😄 She had a bag kept in her freezer. I was so happy and so full! Thank you for this recipe, and for reminding me of good times!

[@Mienarrr]

That sounds amazing!!

[@Maangchi]

Thanks for sharing your mandu story with us!

[@thomasfolio7931]

A tip for frozen Mandu or any other dumplings. First freeze for about 3-4 hours on the baking sheet, then you can put them into freezer bags and they won't stick together as much. It makes it easier to take out as few or many as you want when you are ready to cook them.

yes really miss ur cooking ❤

[@bohemiansusan2897]

I suddenly remembered how my mother used to make mandu. Her way may be represented by the need to improvise as most Korean products were available in the US at the time. Availability came after she died. She used ground beef for the filling with bean sprouts, green onions and carrot. Then we wrapped them in won ton skins. Shapes were rectangle or triangle, then fried. She made them for parties or potlucks.

Such a lovely presentation for making mandu. I was stationed in South Korea in 1975 and fell in love with the dumplings, noodles, bugogi, and other savory dishes. Couldn't do the fermented kimchi or red pepper oil, but there were so many soups and vegetables to try. There was a sidewalk shop where I used to have steamed dumplings with soy sauce and vinegar, just like you fixed, and sweet potato chunks with a sugar coating, I could live on those dumplings. The name of the shop was Yakimandu. I found that mandu means dumpling, but I always wondered what the entire word meant. I will never forget South Korea, it was a fascinating and eye opening time in my life. I enjoy your channel and delightful cooking. Anahashimika! 😊

[@user-ep3mg9ov3i]

thanks for your service!

[@briarrose8948]

so, "yaki" from "yakimandu" (야끼만두) actually just comes from the Japanese word for "fry/fried" the native Korean verb for frying is guptta/kupda (굽다) so fried mandu is also called gunmandu (군만두). in summary, yaki is just a word to express that something has been fried. it does not matter whether someone uses yaki or gun, because they mean the same. for example, the korean subtitles on this video use the native word (군만두) instead of the japanese term. i don't really know the history behind it and why it seems that nowadays yakimandu is a more popular way to describe fried dumplings than gunmandu, but hopefully this satisfies your curiosity.

[@trishamason1855]

@@briarrose8948 That is perfect! Everything there was fried, steamed, or boiled. Thank you so much for the description. It makes the memory of the shop even more pleasant. 💖

[@ChelleMT]

My stomach has been growling the whole time!! My favorite way to eat Mandu is steamed, the flavor is pure and less heavy on the stomach. Thank you for another brilliant recipe Maangchi!

[@jase_allen]

I've picked up frozen mandu at the grocery store on occasion. I sometimes brush it with a bit of oil or spritz it with cooking spray and cook it in the air frier. It's not quite the same as frying it, but it's an easy way to get it crunchy.

[@happysmile9785]

I baked mandoo in the oven with oven paper. It's so crunch n without oily.

I always believed making dumplings was way out of my cooking capabilities, but your teaching this skill & your techniques now make me believe that I could do this. I had tofu once & didn't care for it, but I'm going to be brave & try it again in this recipe. Thank you for teaching me a new skill. I love dumplings❤❤❤..... 😊😊😊.

To make the batch - yes.....but then you have a heap of time saving 'instant' meals on hand! Saturday afternoon, put some good music on, co-opt a loved one to help fill and pleat, very pleasant way to prepare a treasure trove of very healthy, inexpensive, convenience food!

[@kevinsmith5489]

Yeah after seeing how much time it takes, I think I will have to stick to store bought frozen dumplings lol Although I'm sure these are 100x better than the store bought ones in quality and taste

I discovered that here in the CA Bay Area, we have a lot of Asian stores. I found H-Mart recently. It's a Korean grocery. A lot bigger than I expected! So many foods that I don't know how to use yet. Anyway, I bought a lot of ingredients there today. And they had at least 10 varieties of mandu wrappers! Wow. My wife is cooking dinner right now, so I'll make mandu tomorrow morning. I'll use shiitake instead of pork because my son's girlfriend is vegan. Thank you, Maangchi, for encouraging me to cook Korean style! 🥟🥟🥟 🙂

Hello jeremy

[@sharkchisha]

How long can u let them lie in the freezer for before they start going bad?

[@MissingmyBabbu]

@@sharkchisha Most frozen foods are tastiest within the first few months (think 3-6), but as long as they always stay under freezing temperature (0c, not sure about in f) they don't really go off. If yo're worried about it, the best thing to do is put the date on the bags when you freeze them, and then go with your gut. If there's an off smell or texture, or freezerburn (which won't make you sick, it just makes food kinda yucky in texture and taste), or evidence they may have come above freezing temperature (like water pooled in the bottom of the bag, or pooled and froze), then you may want to think about throwing them away.
