i SEE the humor of BAO ZI (包子) vs. Dumpling (饺子)

Enlarge to see more ..

Chinese are familiar with BAO ZI and JIAO ZI. We are eating for generations but we does not know one of the secret.

DO YOU WHO IS GUY AND WHO IS LADY ?
* answer can be found within this page

Before we get to know the answer, let us study how to differentiate both of them in details :-

Cha Siu Bao (BAO Zi/ 包子)
A BAO ZI or simply known as bao, bau, nunu, pow or pau is a type of steamed, filled bun or bread-like (i.e. made with yeast) item in various Chinese cuisines, as there is much variation as to the fillings and the preparations. In its bun-like aspect it is very similar to the traditional Chinese mantou. It can be filled with meat and/or vegetarian fillings.


Jiǎozi (Dumpling/饺子)

A Jiǎozi or gyōza (Japanese transliteration),or pot sticker is a Chinese dumpling widely spread to Japan, Eastern and Western Asia.

Jiaozi typically consist of a ground meat and/or vegetable filling wrapped into a thinly rolled piece of dough, which is then sealed by pressing the edges together or by crimping. Jiaozi should not be confused with wonton: jiaozi have a thicker, chewier skin and a flatter, more oblate, double-saucer like shape (similar in shape to ravioli), and are usually eaten with a soy-vinegar dipping sauce (and/or hot chili sauce); while wontons have thinner skin, are sphere-shaped, and are usually served in broth. The dough for the jiaozi and wonton wrapper also consist of different ingredients.

ANSWER: BAO ZI (包子), because it has "bao skin" (包皮)

Today I feel guilty but yet my wife proud of herself. She have done the biggest achievenment her my life as she have robbed McD without any weapon. She ran to McD order counter and instructed the McD boy to give her 2 McMuffin. Without hesitation, she decided not to pay $$ and brought the McMuffin away. Surprisingly, McD boy didnt shout for "ROBBERY" and he let her go.. it was because ..she have cut (POTONG) the coupon to redeem the McMuffins (bread + sausage + eat + cheese).Seriously, without paying single cent out from our pocket.

How to ROB McD ??

Be an observant, and cut the advert (coupon) out from major press media - STAR/ SUN and etc. The promo till end May 2010.

Believe it or not, even tiugh I am feeling "guilty" I still have 23 coupons as I bought a bunch of old newspapers with a good bargain from newstand in order to redeem FREE McMuffin.

MCD here I come !!! Still, I wonder how McD makes $$ or this is one of the method to measure advertising eye-ball effect or being generous to the public ??

i SEE the philosophy of Burnt Biscuit


Mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then. And I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work. That evening, mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burned biscuits in front of dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed.

All dad did was reach for his biscuit, smiled at mom and asked me how my day was at school. I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that biscuit and ate every bite.

When I got up from the table, I remember hearing mom apologize to dad for burning the biscuits. And I'll never forget what he said: Honey, I love burned biscuits.

Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and asked him if he really liked his biscuits burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, "Your Momma put in a hard day at work today and she's real tired. And besides - a little burnt biscuit never hurt anyone!"

Life is full of imperfect things.....and imperfect people. I'm not the best at hardly anything, and I forget birthdays and anniversaries just like everyone else.

What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each others' faults - and choosing to celebrate each others differences - is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship. Because in the end, you are the master of your own life, to be happy or unhappy, to be positive or negative. We could extend this to any relationship. In fact, understanding is the base of any relationship , be it a husband-wife or parent-child or friendship.

Don't put the key to your happiness in someone else's pocket - keep it in your own. So please pass me a biscuit, and yes, the burnt one will do just fine ...

Basic : i COME, i SEE, i WRITE

Mordern life is occupied by heaps of hearsay, gossip, intelligences bulletin. No one could tell the reality and only the conscious mind takes you to understand the theory of late Michael Jackson - BLACK & WHITE hypothesis and believe there is no existance of "GREY" zone. The creation of "YES" or "NO" is to prevent somebody to fool somebody or vice versa.

People (POLITICIAN) might think we (I) are stupid, people (ADVERTISER) might think we (I) are easy to be influenced, people (MERCHANT) might think we (I) are brainless to justify the truth.

i COME, i SEE, i WRITE is not a platform (blog) to condemn or indemnify anybody but it serves as a medium to share and exchange ideas. By taking it positively, please accept the blogging entry with open heart.
