[Previous entry: "Outing to a Restaurant with my Homestay Family"] [Next entry: "Getting a Car in Japan Part.1: Get your Japanese License A:Practice"] 05/03/2007: "Last Meal at Homestay. Let's Make Gyoza!" mood: enthralled
So finals have ended and I made it through. I pulled off a 3.77GPA and made Dean's List this semester and it's time for some celebration. My last night in the homestay before making the final move to my new apartment has arrived and it's time for my favorite food, Gyoza!  Man this stuff is great. Now that you've seen the video, you should try making it. If you have an asian supermarket in your town (If you're in my hometown of Sacramento you most surely do), you can find the Kawa(skin) required for making it which is the only ingredient you can't normally buy at a US supermarket. The best part if the entire 150 piece meal costs about $15 to make. You pretty much need the skin, meat, negi, salt and other seasonings, cabbage, and you're done!  You also need a flat pan griddle such as this. A little oil and a cup or do of water.  It's so easy to make and so awesome you have no idea.  mmmmm delicious. This meal was my last with the family, sad times. It was great overall and I'm glad I did it. Homestays are really hard but if you can handle it, they're well worth it. If you ever have the chance, do it. |
