Sweet & Sour Sauce
Not everyone has access to a grocery store or health food store with a large gluten-free section. So if you’ve planned on making some homemade Chinese food for dinner, don’t forget those yummy condiments, like Sweet & Sour Sauce. Strawberries and red peppers are a few of the ingredients that make this recipe a perfect balance of sweet and sour.

Hey Marla. I’m looking for a recipe for gluten-free dairy free dumplings. Everything I’ve ever tried has been nasty. Please help. Misty Burgess
That is one thing I’ve never made (or eaten). I will add it to my list of recipes to develop and let you know once it’s perfected!
I’m starting to research dumplings, but I’m a bit confused…I had always thought that dumplings were the biscuit like dough that was dolloped over top of a stew. But are you referring to a rice-paper wrapped dumpling (like a gyoza)??
I’m referring to chicken and dumplings. They’re dough that is rolled out and cut. Then is added to the broth left over from the chicken. It’s an American recipe.
