There's still a chill in the air here, begging for spring and... spring rolls popped into my head.
The next TD is...
DIM SUM!
Wow! This will be a good one. Never done it before. There are so many possibilities and people love making dough... for dumplings, wrappers for spring rolls, and there's all kinds of dim sum.
Be creative or traditional. You want to smoke a pork shoulder and do a BBQ spring roll with napa cabbage? I sez y not!
What a great opportunity for sauces here as well! All sauces must be homemade, as well as each entry but you may use packaged dough, but homemade is preferred.
Dim sum is a Chinese appetizer or tapas served with tea. It is usually steamed dumplings, buns, rolls, or meats served in steamer baskets but can be fried dumplings, rolls, meats, etc. as well as small portions of meat cooked otherwise, and rice. If you know what it is, you know what it is.

I hear ya TB. 5 years later!!!!
It must be considered dim sum as far as the preparation and appearance, but you may be creative with ingredients, fillings, and sauces!
You must make a minimum of 2 dim sum, and you can make as many as 5. This must all be presented as one entry. More info later. Remember, there is dessert dim sum too!
