Dumplings vs. Potstickers!
Dumplings are doughy on the outside and filled with vegetable or meat on the inside. Potstickers are an Asian twist on the concept; stir-fried so that they are crispy on the outside. No matter the name, if you are in the mood for a delicious pocket of gluten-free, doughy goodness, you’ll have your fill with House of Yee’s Dumplings.
Cooking Instructions
Frozen when purchased, they are ready to eat in minutes. Instructional video on Google or Facebook
- Place non-stick pan on medium heat
- Add 1 TBSP oil
- Arrange frozen dumplings in pan so that they are not touching
- Add 1/2 cup cold water
- Cover and boil 6 minutes
- Remove lid, turn heat to high and fry to desired crispness
- Arrange on a platter along with House of Yee’s Dumpling Sauce
- Enjoy!

About Christine Yee, Founder
“My parents owned a Chinese Canadian restaurant in Regina, Saskatchewan. My dad would cook in the back with my brothers while I served in the front with my mom and sister. My parents were always at the restaurant, just trying to make ends meet. I have a lot of respect for people who run restaurants. It was a lot of hard work but it just wasn’t for me.
I went into real estate but one morning at 5am, I woke up and thought “I’m going to start a healthy food line” and somehow gluten-free dumplings just came to me. I went from real estate deals to researching gluten-free recipes. A really steep learning curve. It was like trying to build a house by yourself that no one’s built before, and then trying to sell it. I never realized it was so much work!
When the time came to name my business, I naturally chose House of Yee as a way to honour my hard working parents and grandparents. I hope you enjoy the fruits of my labour!”
Let’s meet up and try one of the most elusive of gluten-free cuisines – celiac-safe Japanese food!
Room for only 7 attendees.

Thank you to Pure Lovin’ for their donation of delicious organic, gluten-free, vegan chocolates as a very special ‘Treat to Go!’
Based on the great experience of one of our most intrepid Gluten-Free Foodies, I popped in to speak with Ebizo about their ability to serve celiac diners.
Server Nigh-Yee readily identified which rolls, nigiri and sashimi are already gluten free, or could be adapted to be so. They can furnish us with gluten-free soy sauce.
I asked that on this occasion, that the chefs be made aware that our group requires 100% gluten-free food and to take any extra precautions to necessary to assure our safety.
Ebizo is a small restaurant so they only take reservations for groups of seven or less. This means this meet up is quite exclusive and that if you are interested, best to sign up soon!
Arigato!

Below are samples of previous baking delivered to Victoria by Delish!
Owner Jenna Lynn Perry began her career as a baker, one who was always being asked whether she could bake gluten free. With her grandmother and father diagnosed with celiac disease, she had every reason to apply her skills to perfecting gluten-free baking.
In 2011, she established Delish Gluten Free Bakery in Port Coquitlam and has been busy ever since proving that gluten-free baking can indeed be ‘Delish!’
Delish has recently opened ‘Caffe Delish,’ a coffee shop that features Delish baking, open 7 days a week. Enjoy fine baking, yeast-risen, deep-fried donuts, jumbo cinnamon buns, scones, muffins, breads & more.
