Kimchi (Korean Cabbage Relish) recipe

Potstickers are basically Chinese dumplings, just cooked differently. Instead of boiling in the water, you cook them in a hot pan with a bit oil and a bit water to develop a nicely browned and crispy crust. The fillings can be made in advance; the leftover dumplings, just freeze them raw. Whenever you feel like eating a few, cook the frozen ones directly in hot pan.

This yummy, quick and easy treat is perfect for summer days or even when stuck inside during the cold months. This was something I used to make for family parties all the time. Before going Gluten free, I would just buy the premade graham cracker crust so there was no baking and it literally took 5 minutes to throw together. All I had to do was make a few hours ahead for it to set and be done. But I must admit, this new adaption, using Almond four taste even better!

Strawberry shortcakes have been one of my favorites for over years. Every year when the strawberry season hit, we always go to farmers' market and get lots of fresh and sweet strawberries, then strawberry shortcakes are always one of the recipes we make. The shortcakes are super easy to make, they are buttery and flaky, which is delicious with sweet whipped cream and fresh-juicy strawberries. Haven't heard there is someone who doesn't like it. An absolute keeper!
