Mom doesn't bake because there are no oven in China. Chinese steam most of their snacks and goodies. When I first got married and moved to Oklahoma there weren't any Dim Sum restaurant around. My husband and I used to drive down to Dallas to get our fix. So when Mom came to help me when I had my first baby, she would show me how to make all the Chinese snacks and I would measure everything and write them down. I am so thankful that Mom is such a good cook. I am the only one among all my siblings who can make all these goodies.Now I am teaching my daughter how to make these snacks so she can enjoy them too. Hopefully she will pass this onto the next generation.
