The bag has (in English) three sets of instructions for preparation. One is the traditional one. The one I use, though, is for boiling them, and it includes a line something like "be sure to use enough water that the product does not stick to the pot."

Yeppers, what I thought was meat was actually Korean-style textured bean curd! <br /><br />One Fly: I can get homemade pot stickers any time by going to my local Korean restaurants, but dropping $20 a meal at Korean restaurants is something I'll do once a month, maybe, at most. These were as good as anything I've eaten at a Korean restaurant, and the rest of the dinner was just as good, those Koreans do know how to whip up nice spicy veggies! I think I've seen the Ling Ling ones you're talking about at Costco, but never bought them because they came in a bag the size of a football lineman and I woulda never eaten them all before they got freezer burned.<br /><br />Time for coffee...<br /><br />- Badtux the Needs-caffeine PenguinBadTuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345749557330760251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-22347612113688731042011-12-18T09:27:22.824-08:002011-12-18T09:27:22.824-08:00Several times I enjoyed homemade Korean pot sticke...Several times I enjoyed homemade Korean pot stickers.
