2022 Top 6 Recipes

December 30, 2022 By Lokness Leave a Comment

Welcome to another year of Top 6! 2022 has been a better year. It feels like things are slowly getting back to normal. Excited for 2023 to come! But before 2023, it’s time to take a look back at our Top 6 recipes of 2022.

2022 has been a pretty busy year for me. In my personal life, we were able to do a bit more traveling, like Monterey, Denver, Maine & Boston. My sister and Bryan’s best friend both got married. My parents flew in town for my sister wedding and we got to spend some family time together. We ended up all getting covid after traveling with my family, but we have fully recovered after 2 – 3 weeks. Lucky that all of these happened after the wedding. What a relief!

For the blog, I admitted that it has been a bit lacking. I still struggled to get back to the working flow, but I’m feeling better and positive that 2023 will head to the right way. Thank you very much for the continued supports! I love reading all the comments on the blog and on Instagram. It warms my heart every time when you guys really enjoyed my recipes. ❤️

Happy 2023! Wish you a fantastic and healthy new year!

Here are our 2022 Top 6 Recipes:

6. Iced Mango Matcha – Amazing cold drink for the summer! It has the perfect balance of sweetness & bitterness. Quick & easy too!

The food in the picture is sweet glutinous rice dumplings w/ black sesame 落湯糍(糯米糍). The word “糍” sounds similar to “錢”, so the dumplings represent money. Eating them will bring you lots of wealth! 

The dumplings are chewy & gooey like mochi. Coated in black sesame seeds. Right before eating, dip them in sugar. Perfect sweet treat for the new year!

We just can’t get enough of @somisomiicecream! T We just can’t get enough of @somisomiicecream! Their soft serve is creamy, yet not too sweet. Lots of choices too, like ube, matcha, black sesame etc. The taiyaki is crispy on the outside & filled w/ goodness, like Nutella, red bean & custard. My only wish is that they open a store in the San Gabriel Valley, so we don’t have to travel far every time!😆

2022 is coming to an end! It has been a much bette 2022 is coming to an end! It has been a much better year for me personally. We traveled a bit more (Denver, Monterey, Maine, & Boston) & ate lots of incredible food. I’m drooling just thinking about some of the food. Also, my parents flew in from HK. We finally got to see each other after 3 years. We spent time together & attended my sister’s wedding. And we all finally got covid. It’s looking like things are getting back to normal. I truly hope it is!

Galbi mandu (dumpling) from Chang Hwa Dang (CHD) a Galbi mandu (dumpling) from Chang Hwa Dang (CHD) are so damn GOOD! 🥟 Smokey, little sweet, meaty, & crispy skin. I could eat a few plates of those! We first tried the sampler, but was most impressed by the galbi ones. We like the pork too, but the jalapeño one was way too spicy for my taste. It actually has half of a jalapeño in it.🔥
