This week, Aldi decided to take two different types of cuisine and mash them into one, giving us kimchi potstickers. Kimchi is a traditional Korean dish made with seasoned fermented napa cabbage and/or Korean radishes. Potstickers originated in China and consist of dumplings filled with meat, cabbage, and other veggies and seasonings. Aldi regularly stocks…
When it comes to takeout-style food, Aldi offers a decent selection ranging from General Tso’s chicken to egg rolls to potstickers. I often keep a stash of these products in my deep freezer for evenings when I need to heat up a quick and easy dinner. It’s always a hit with my family. One thing…
Whenever Aldi rotates different Asian dishes into the limited-edition Aldi Find freezers, I know they’re often worth trying. I’ve found interesting appetizer samplers, teriyaki chicken skillets, spring rolls, mini wontons, beef and broccoli, and more. These are all sold under the Fusia Asian Inspirations brand. This isn’t a company. Instead, it’s the private label Aldi…
Ramen is a noodle dish most people are familiar with. It’s a great comfort food, with a savory, salty broth and soft noodles. The word ramen is Japanese but comes from the Mandarin Chinese word for “pulled noodles.” Ramen’s first recorded appearance was among Chinese immigrants living in Yokohama Chinatown in Japan in the early…
Every once in a while, Aldi rolls out an array of Asian-inspired foods and cookware as limited-edition specials. Lately, I’ve seen ceramic ramen noodle bowls, rice cookers, bamboo grills, crab rangoon, crunchy rice rolls, mini wontons, shrimp spring rolls, and more. One of the products that caught my eye during the most recent Asian-themed week…
Chinese-American takeout-style food is a popular dinner in my house. Whether it’s from our favorite restaurant around the corner or from the freezer aisle at Aldi, we’re always up for it. Aldi is a nice option for times when dining out isn’t in the budget, and we are fans of the discount grocery store’s mandarin…

Aldi is a great grocery store to buy all of these meals from. When it comes to Asian-inspired food, we’re fans of several products Aldi regularly stocks, including…
My family loves takeout food, but when takeout isn’t in our budget, we enjoy takeout-style food from the grocery store. Aldi sells several decent options under its Fusia Asian Inspirations private label, which encompasses products such as egg rolls, mandarin orange chicken, General Tso’s chicken, beef and broccoli, beef lo mein, chicken fried rice, chicken…
If you enjoy Chinese food, you’ve probably tried wontons at some point. Wontons are a type of Chinese dumpling that can be filled with a variety of ingredients from meat to veggies to spices. Wontons are often boiled, served in soup, or deep fried. They’re different from potstickers, which are traditionally steamed in a frying…

Then there are also the foods that Aldi rotates in a few times a year on a limited basis, such as crab rangoon, potstickers, mini wontons, and more. Today, we’re…
