Dumplings on our doorstep

We have had the chance to sample a small portion of street food here in Tianjin.  To our delight a new vendor has set up shop just outside our apartment.  And double delight was that he was selling dumplings, our new favourite dish.  For 60p or $0.98 we had a heaping bowl of pork dumplings, a perfect snack to end the day!

Stocking up

As a result of our Thanksgiving, I finally was able to try making my own stock.  Bones, skin and veggies simmered away most of the day Sunday and we now have a freezer full of turkey stock and fat to use in future cooking.  Made use of it tonight in a lovely pumpkin puree (using the pumpkins from the décor on Thanksgiving) and gravy for our pork chop dinner.
