pelmeni press - inexpensive and quick way to make dumplings, you just need a rolling pin
a cold soup best in summer when the tomatoes are ripe.
this isn't working out too good. I will scan my cards and drop them here tomorrow Happy New Year to all. We have a rib roast in the oven!
Did you say rib roast? I am on my way......
I like dumplings, and your Pelmeni soup reminds me of Korean Mandu-guk.
Many years ago, I worked for a while at Gallaudet College (I think that very soon after it was designated a University) and it was very near a kind of market with lots of food vendors.
There was a little hole-in-the-wall Korean place there, where the elderly proprietor lady served me Mandu-guk - a dumpling soup. It was absolutely wonderful, and full of things I couldn’t identify, herbs that looked like little twigs, unusual mushrooms, etc.
Here is Maangchi doing a similar recipe (you don’t have to make your own Mandu to approximate this - there are lots of similar dumplings in supermarkets, now):
