Linguine With Crab


Well, here it is, the crab pasta that I had planned to make with the balance of the Dungeness crab meat which I had picked up earlier. It’s just a simple and yet delicious Linguine with Crab. I always cook the pasta only when everyone is ready to dine, so that the pasta will not go cold and dry out.

  7. Beautiful and delicious! I tried it myself, and the only thing I'd love to know is: where did you get such beautiful crab meat? Short of steaming fresh crab, the canned stuff I found at Whole Foods tasted fine, but didn't look nearly as nice as yours.

Dumplings

I'm actually laughing at myself! What have I got into? Trying to make dumplings?? Well, I have seen my late grandmother make them a long time ago. I can remember the ingredients but not the measurements! So, it took me about two hours to come up with the perfect recipes, and I'm glad I did! It was an instant hit! They were all gone, all gobbled up! Make the dough first, add about 480 to 500g of all-purpose flour with 300ml of water. Knead the dough and let it rest. You should be able to make 40 dumplings with the dough. Meanwhile, prepare the filling for the dumplings. Click here for the dumpling wrappers video.
