My cooking triumphs
I make a mean risotto, whether it's with mushrooms and shallots or with sausage and pancetta. I've never made a bad batch!
My cooking tragedies
My first attempt at potstickers was a disaster: I made them ahead of time and didn't think to layer them between wax paper. As a result, they all clumped together; I got so mad trying to peel them apart, I just jammed my hands into the container and squished them all into a soggy mess. Out of maybe 30, less than 10 were saved.
