Scallion Pancakes

March 3, 2015 6 Comments

Super super short post today, guys. ‘Cuz it’s my blog, and I’ll slack off if I want to. Also, blogger burn out- am I right, Sarah/Jennifer/Carla? *Wink* The only things you need to know about this recipe: It’s super delicious – salty, scallion-y perfection. So many flaky layers. 100% improvement over my old scallion pancakes…read more »

Snacktastic Sundays: Chinese Potstickers

November 9, 2014 16 Comments

Another short post today, guys! Dan absolutely cannot control himself around pork dumplings, and there wasn’t a Patriots game today to distract him from my kitchen/blogging activities, so I didn’t have a whole lot of time to snap pictures before he started getting impatient for his dumpling dinner. There’s nothing like a hungry, aggressively hovering husband to…read more »

Bang Bang Chicken

July 7, 2014 6 Comments

<<Hello from Amsterdam! This post comes to you from the past…or maybe it’s the future? I’m confused. Either way, I wrote this before I left for vacation because I didn’t want you all to forget about me while I was gone. And, later in the week, there will be a guest post for Thirsty Thursday, courtesy…read more »

Momofuku Steamed Pork Buns

June 22, 2014 14 Comments

So, Father’s Day was last week. My original plan was to have one big family brunch with my parents and the in-laws, since Dan’s family was already in town for a family wedding, but then I found out there was already a big post-wedding brunch planned with the bride’s family, so…the great Rodgers-Hu Father’s Day…read more »

Chicken Katsu

April 8, 2014 9 Comments

Chicken Katsu and Tonkatsu are two of the dishes that (assuming I’m not craving sushi) I have to get when we go to Japanese restaurants. I don’t often let myself eat fried food, but it’s impossible to resist the lure of crispy, tender, breaded/fried meat (mmmm, pork) smothered in a thick savory-sweet sauce over a giant…read more »

Homemade Teriyaki Chicken

January 18, 2014 10 Comments

Is it weird that I sometimes miss college dining? Not dining hall food…definitely not. My dorm’s dining hall served mainly bland stir fries, greasy baked ziti, and soggy Monty Cristo sandwiches. Blech. What I do miss is the food from student center. I liked having all those options, you know? There was a brick oven pizza…read more »

Crock Pot Honey Garlic Chicken

November 11, 2013 8 Comments

You know that scene in Bridget Jones’ Diary when she’s sad-drinking alone in her apartment and starts scrounging around her fridge because she’s hungry from all the drinking and all that’s in there is a moldy block of cheese? That has been my life for the past few weeks, minus the drinking.  For no particular…read more »

Korean BBQ Short Ribs (Kalbi)

June 25, 2013 4 Comments

This post is dedicated to my friend Susan who, after months and months of promising to do guest posts of her family’s favorite Korean dishes, finally just sent me her mom’s Kalbi recipe so that I would stop harassing her while she was neck deep in finals and bar exam prep.  I still want to…read more »

Steamed Pork Buns (Bao Zi)

February 10, 2013 13 Comments

Last year, for Chinese Lunar New Year, I made…a Strawberries & Cream Pie. Super delicious, but not exactly culturally relevant/appropriate. This year, I was determined to be a Good Chinese Girl and actually cook something Chinese. After all, it’s my dad’s zodiac year, and I wanted to make something in honor of his special year. Steamed…read more »

Coca Cola Drumsticks

September 6, 2012 1 Comment

Are you guys excited for football season? Dan is! And if my Facebook newsfeed is any indication, so is everyone else on the planet. Me? Not so much. But I am excited for all the snack foods that football watching entails. Like these Asian-inspired Coca Cola drumsticks, for example. They’re juicy, meaty, savory-sweet, and fall-off-the-bone tender….read more »
