Asian Week + more ALDI Finds week of 2/8/23

ALDI Finds for the week of 2/8/23 include so many Asian Week foods, plus fire safety items, football foods, money trees, and keto friendly bagels! Check out this week’s picks below, and let me know what you want to Find.

ALDI does thematic food weeks throughout the year, and this week you’ll Find various Asian-inspired foods to choose from. Let’s talk about some of those first, then we’ll run down the rest of this week’s (fairly lengthy) ad.

Asian Week ALDI Finds of Yummy Goodness

I love ALDI’s mini wontons and try to pick up a bag every time they reappear in store; they’re great for making a quick batch of wonton soup & so much more. Everyone here enjoys them!

The spring rolls, though, I’ve never tried — have you? Find these and more frozen appetizer-y items this week:

• 24 oz Fusia mini wontons (pork or chicken), $6.89
• Fusia crab rangoon, $3.29
• Fusia shrimp or veggie spring rolls, $4.99
• Fusia Asian inspired appetizer sampler, $10.49
• Phillips crispy dim sum, $6.99

I’ve never seen that appetizer sampler box before, but am pretty sure my teenager would just eat the whole thing.

What else is hanging out in the frozen section? Well, you can look for assorted my/mochi at $4.97 a box: In green tea, guava, or coconut flavors. Lastly, a 10 oz box of Fremont Fish Market boom boom shrimp will run you $5.99.

And, of course, Season’s choice steamable or shelled edamame is also back in the frozen section at $2.49 per 16 oz bag. Need ideas for this? Aside from straight up enjoying the tasty little beans, how about using your shelled edamame in:

• Ahi Tuna Poke Bowls
• Ramen noodle stir fry
• Garlic soy pork with edamame rice
• Edamame & mushroom fried rice

What do you like to make with yours?

Let’s move over to pantry Finds now, where Fusia crunchy rice rolls are $1.99 a pack. Look also for:

• Annie Chun’s ramen or noodle bowl, $2.98
• Burman’s Asian inspired sauces, $2.89
• Fusia curry rice noodle soup bowl, see price in store
• Fusia pho or ramen broth 32 oz, $1.89
• Fusia ramen or pho noodles, $2.99

The broth is quite tasty; we tried it last time it was out in stores.

Lastly, head over to the refrigerated/deli section for a couple of prepared food options. Choose from either a Park Street Deli General Tsao’s or Szechuan lo mein chicken bowl at $3.29, or a Pulmuone beef bulbogi udon or chicken pad Thai meal kits for $8.99.

Cook up your new Finds, too!

How are you going to cook all of your new Asian Week food Finds, if not in your new Crofton stir fry wok? One of these will run you $12.99 this week, and ALDI has a number of other kitchen Finds to check out:

• Ambiano 6-cup rice cooker & steamer, $16.99
• Bamboo steamer, $9.99
• Crofton ceramic ramen noodle bowl, $4.99
