Ease up with the blue cheese because can be really strong.



Many people do not like it but I like basically all cheeses.



I once ate a really bad smelling cheese from France with bread. I was hesitant at first but they insisted that I try it and it tasted really good.

I made many mushroom/blue cheese snacks today.



A hunk of blue cheese stuffed into a mushroom and then wrapped in bacon.

You´ll have to cook it.



It´s simple but it´s fucking good.

I didn't know it was possible to stuff a mushroom.

Champignon mushroom. Apparently that is its name.

Ok, so you cut out the middle and fill it with blue cheese then wrap bacon around it?

[Odinson]

Yea. These are great snacks.

Yea. These are great snacks.

After you cut out the middle and fill it, do you melt em in the microwave or the oven?

[Odinson]

Oven.

Thank you for the recipe Odinson..



I think they would be very delicious.

[Anonymous]

Oven.

I am thinking no more than 10-12 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

[Odinson]

Correct.

[Odinson]

Always add up some butter on potatoes and salt on eggs.



Awesome taste. Those mushroom/bacon/cheese thingies are great. Not to use too much cheese because blue cheese is kinda strong.



When done right they will be dripping grease and make a great snack. They have to be warm so that they are juicy.

Like any other food, they have to be juicy.

Vegetarian pot stickers



Ingredients:

•1/2 pound firm tofu

•1/2 cup finely shredded carrot

•1/2 cup finely chopped bok choy

•1/4 cup finely chopped water chestnuts

•1/4 cup finely chopped bamboo shoots

•1 package potsticker or gyoza wrappers

•2 tablespoons oil for frying the dumplings



Preparation:



Drain the tofu, cut into cubes and mash..



Wash and prepare the vegetables..



Combine the tofu with the remainder of the ingredients and seasonings..



Lay out one of the gyoza wrappers in front of you..



Dip your finger in the water and moisten the edges of the wrapper..



Place a heaping teaspoon of filling in the middle of the wrapper..



Fold the gyoza wrapper over the filling and pinch the edges to seal it shut. (You may want to use a cornstarch/water mixture to make this easier)..



Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet or wok..



When oil is ready, carefully add the dumplings and cook on high heat until golden brown (about 1 minute)..



Without turning the dumplings over, add 1/2 cup of water and cover..



Cook for about 1 minute to cook the raw filling and then uncover and continue cooking until most of the liquid is absorbed.



Serve the potstickers with the burnt side on top, with potsticker dipping sauce or soy sauce mixed with minced ginger for dipping.
