The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

If dumplings seem like something best bought in the frozen aisle, maybe you haven't given them a shot at home. Wonton wrappers folded around spiced pork can be quickly fried or steamed.

under 30 minutes
ingredients
1/2 pound ground pork
1 piece (1-inch size) ginger
2 cloves garlic
1/3 cup finely minced onion
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 egg white
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 package (12 ounce size) wonton wrappers
directions
Place pork in a medium bowl. Peel ginger then finely mince and add to pork. Finely mince garlic and add to bowl along with minced onion, soy sauce, egg white, salt, pepper and cayenne. Use hands to mix until seasoning is evenly distributed.
Working with 6-8 wonton wrappers at a time, place a teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center of the wrapper. Using your finger, moisten the edges of each wrapper with water and folder over sealing to form a triangle. Moisten the tips of the triangle and bring tips together to form a purse. Repeat using all pork mixture. Cover made dumplings with a moist paper towel until finished forming dumplings. At this point the dumplings can be fried in a couple of inches of vegetable for 3-4 minutes. Or they can be steamed in a bamboo steamer for 8-10 minutes.
