Megan. European (German, Irish, Norwegian, Spanish). Her comfort food of assorted mushroom pasta sauce over cavatappi was the perfect excuse for me to splurge in the beautiful 𼚠mushroom section of @berkeleybowl to make these mixed mushroom baos.
Justin. Korean Californian. Momâs pork kimchi jjigae should just be a standard dumpling in the repertoire - simple spicy sweet fermented pork filling with scallions and onion for an easy filling post farmerâs market lunch.

Jinah. 75% Korean 25% American. Revamping kimchi fried rice gave me excuse to try out some egg dumplings filled with kimchi fried rice, which were as finicky to make as it looks- be prepared to nibble on a lot of scrap pieces.

Bianca Biancadonk Donna. German. Encapsulated her traditional German upbringing into a currywurst dumpling with salty spice-y brat seasoning in a sweet pool of homemade curry ketchup.

Tonia. Asian, Taiwanese/Chinese. A picture of the reject test bebes from an order for these candy corn colored masa dumplings filled with Taiwanese beef noodle soup style beef, bok choy, and bits of fresh corn - basically if a tamale migrated to Taiwan. Btw the best way to âroll outâ gf masa wrappers is with a tortilla press đ

Jared. White Ashkenazi Jewish. His East Coast Jewish parents upheld a tradition of eating classic Chinese American foods and since his mom made everything with ground turkey for health, I put the turkey moo shu into a sealed pancake for the most intuitive dumpling adaptation with wood ear, egg, napa cabbage, and hoisin.

Luis. Mexican (ânot a Mexicanâtâ). Basically turned a sope inside out (or outside in?) to fit these into the dumpling family - masa wrapper filled with a potentially weird combo of funghi e pepperoni and green salsa but it all melded together really nicely with some mozzarella đ

impromptu duck okonomiyaki bao because I had duck remnants, half a head of cabbage, a Costco sized bag of carrots, and the building blocks for a quick okonomiyaki sauce đ¤ˇđťââď¸

MADDY. American with European heritage (Jewish and Italian). A very MADDY take on char siu baos x ramen where the pork is roasted with cocoa and then cooked with chocolate pieces, and the dough is made with crushed @maruchan_inc ramen noodles.
p.s. it is still unclear to me why my phone autocapitalizes her entire name everytime but ima leave it because itâs funny and she feels like Iâm always excited to text her.

Megan. Taiwanese American. ĺ¤čéĽ (lu rou fan) and strawberry shortcake come together in this roasted strawberry red braised pork filled dumpling in a rice based wrapper. And really for her love of čä¸ (pork floss), I shouldâve rolled the entire dumpling in it.
