I made these and they were sooooooo good. I didn't add the wine though because I don't drink. Thank you! They were super easy to make, but took a while.

@ViolinTreelet Thank you so much for trying these and commenting. I'm sorry I didn't answer your other question (below) in time - you could just leave them out, or substitute some cabbage or bean sprouts as well :)

@78karito Hi, I have a crab rangoon recipe that has cream cheese and crab in it found here youtube (dot) com /watch?v=PYApf9Om3MQ

@AsianCookingmadeEasy Thanks for the suggestions. I bought bamboo shoots and used them. They tasted good, but smelled horrible.

[ViolinTreelet]

Is it okay if I don't use bamboo shoots? What can I use as an alternative that's usually available in kitchens?

Thanks! It looks and sounds easy enough, but I know it's not. I will definitely try this anyone. You explained it very well.

@niteaway You can substitute dry cooking sherry for chinese rice wine.
