During her career as a food writer at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Hsiao-Ching shared many stories about learning how to make dumplings (boiled, steamed potstickers) at her mother, Ellen’s, apron strings. Ellen would roll the wrappers and Hsiao-Ching would fill and pinch the dumplings. Hsiao-Ching has taught home cooks how to make these dumplings at food festivals, on board a Holland America cruise, and most notably, for Tony Bourdain. Tony featured Hsiao-Ching on his Travel Channel show“No Reservations.” The potsticker recipe also has been featured in the PBS documentary and companion cookbook, “The Meaning of Food.”
