Sorry about the weird voice-over. I think I am coming down with the cold, since I am feeling very stuffy, and just breathing has been very challenging. Even though finals are kicking my butt, I will still try my best to post a video up every week. I might be a day or two late, though. So far everyone been so understanding and I am so grateful for that. You guys are the best! Oh, before I forget, I would like to say thank you so much for subscribing and commenting on my last video.

In the second episode of Danwei Canteen, Anhui native Li Zhongqin cooks her mother's egg dumpling recipe, set to music from Anhui. Video also on Youtube and Tudou. See below for recipe. # Chop up as a piece of meat as finely as possible. Using a meat grinder or buying minced meat will make the job much easier. # Add a small bit of ginger, a spoon of soy sauce and a spoon of starch to the meat paste. # Break an egg and separate the yolk from the white. Add the egg white in the meat paste and whisk it until they are thoroughly combined. Break another four eggs into a bowl and whisk them (for) exactly 100 times. # Heat up a ladle over the cooking flame and then pour some salad oil into it. Tilt the ladle around so that it is fully covered with a thin film of oil. Drain the remaining oil back to the container. Add a spoon of whisked egg into the ladle and tilt until fully covered. When the egg becomes a stiff sheet, add the filling on top. Fold the sheet and mate the two ends. Make as many as you like in the same way. # Steam the dumplings for 15mins in a steamer. # At the same time, put some soy sauce, chicken extract, salt, vinegar and sugar into a bowl and mix them together. Heat up some oil in a wok. Add the spices into the oil, then fry and add water. Sprinkle the sauce and some chopped green onion onto the steamed dumplings. Now the egg dumplings are ready to eat.
