Three letters that say so much- we are finally DTC! This is the Chinese adoptive families community’s acronym for Dossier To China, or All Systems Go! Our complete application has been processed through our agency, filed, and overnighted to Beijing. Probably within a week, we’ll be logged in to the official system, and we’ll be ready to meet our future son or daughter!
In other news, our Sunday night dinners took an exciting turn, as we tried making bao for the first time. For those who aren’t familiar, bao is a steamed bun often filled with meat or vegetables. We made bbq and ginger pork bao– which turned out fantastic! We cheated by using this recipe for a lazy Sunday night dinner, but for our first time, they turned out wonderfully!
Anyone have any tips on cleaning bamboo steamer baskets?
Omg I am so excited for you. SO SO SO EXCITED!!
Yay! That is SO exciting!!!!
Yeah!
Fantastic! FWI…in case you did not hear this…coming from a real Chinese chef…while most Chinese cooks do not really use recipes (every time they make a meal it is different) his recommendation for the most authentic Chinese cookbook is the one by Betty Crocker.
