CHINESE PORK DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• The filling: Place the cabbage in a food processor, add 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pulse until finely chopped but not puréed. Wrap the chopped cabbage in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze to remove juices, then transfer to a large bowl. Add ginger, garlic, scallions, and, if desired, garlic chives. Add the shrimp and pork and season with 1/4 cup soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt and pepper. Mix together by hand.
• Taste the filling by poaching or frying a small amount, and adjust seasonings to taste. To prepare the dipping sauce, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, scallions, and toasted sesame seeds in a small bowl.
• To wrap, place 1 tablespoon of filling into the center of a dumpling wrapper. Wet the wrapper's edges, then fold in half to form a taco-like shape. Make a pleat on the side facing you about 20 degrees from the apex of the half-circle and seal with your fingers to the back of the skin. Repeat on the other quarter, in mirror fashion, and seal the dumpling completely, trying to eliminate any air pockets. Repeat until all filling is used.
• To pan fry, heat oil in a large, nonstick pan over high heat. Add the dumplings in one layer so that they do not overlap. Add water to come halfway up the dumplings, and cover the pan. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook until all water is evaporated and the bottoms are browned and crispy, about 10 minutes. Alternatively, the dumplings can be steamed until cooked through, about 5 minutes in a steam basket.
• Transfer the dumplings to a plate and serve with a dipping sauce.

PORK DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• For the dipping sauce: Combine the soy sauce, Sriracha and lemon juice in a bowl and set aside until ready to serve.
• For the pork dumplings: Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, ginger, sesame oil and scallions and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes (you just want to take the bite off of the raw ingredients, not saute them). Remove from the heat and allow to cool 1 minute.
• Combine the cooked garlic, ginger and scallions with the pork, hoisin, soy sauce, five-spice powder and egg in a large mixing bowl.
• Working with the dumpling wrappers, start with the floured surface facing down. Place 1 1/2 teaspoons of filling in the center of a wrapper. Wet the edge of the dumpling with water, using your finger, and fold the circle in half without sealing, like a taco. Pinch one end closed. Create pleats on one side using your thumb and forefinger, pressing against the other flat edge to seal as you go. Flatten the bottoms so they can get a nice pan fry on them. Repeat until all the dumplings are filled. Keep the dumplings on a lightly-floured sheet tray to keep them from sticking, and cover with a slightly damp towel to keep from drying out.
• Heat the veggie oil over high heat in the same skillet. Working in batches, pan-fry the dumplings by placing them bottom-side down and frying until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Once the dumplings are golden brown, working carefully (it will splatter), pour 1/2 cup water into the skillet to cover the dumplings halfway. Immediately cover with a lid, leaving a small crack for steam to escape. Cook until the water has evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the dumplings to a paper towel-lined plate to soak up excess oil and repeat the process with the remaining dumplings.
• Cook's Note: This recipe makes a lot of dumplings; just keep extra in your freezer for a late night snack!

SHRIMP AND PORK DUMPLINGS, STEAMED OR PAN-FRIED

Steps:

• For the filling: In the bowl of a food processor, add the shrimp, ground pork, sesame oil, soy sauce, cornstarch, ginger, garlic, green onions, egg whites, lemon juice and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pulse the ingredients until smooth, 3 to 5 times. It should be somewhat chunky, not totally pureed. Put the filling into a bowl and fold in the water chestnuts.
• To determine if the filling is seasoned well, make a small patty, about 2 tablespoons. Place a small saute pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon canola oil. Once heated, add the tester patty and cook on both sides until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the pan and place onto a paper-towel-lined plate and taste. Adjust seasoning to the remaining filling if needed.
• Prepare the dumplings according to desired assembly. Serve with Sesame-Soy Dipping Sauce.
• Line each tray of your bamboo steamer with cabbage leaves and cover with the lid. Bring 1 to 2 inches of water to a boil in a large, wide pan. Set the bamboo steamer over the pot. Continue to add water as needed.
• Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface and add about 2 teaspoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold and pleat as you gather the wrapping around the filling, leaving the top of the filling uncovered. Gently tap the shu mai on your work surface, flattening the bottom and allowing it to stand upright and make a basket shape.
• Put the shu mai in the cabbage-lined steamers and cover with the lid. Steam the dumplings until cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface and add about 2 teaspoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrapper with water. Take one edge of the wonton wrapper and fold it to the other side, creating a half moon shape. Then starting at one end of your half moon, make gentle folds, pleating and pressing the top side of the wrapper onto the bottom side as you work around the half moon.
• Have about 1/2 cup water, a large skillet and a lid for the skillet handy. Heat the skillet with 1 to 2 tablespoons of canola oil over high heat. Once the skillet is hot, place the number of dumplings you want to cook smooth-side down in the skillet. Allow them to sear until the bottoms turn golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the water, immediately cover with the lid and let the dumplings steam for another 3 to 4 minutes.
• Whisk together the soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, ginger, oil, honey and green onions, and set aside until ready to serve.

PORK DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• For the dumpling dough: Mix the flour and salt together in a mixer bowl. Add the water and mix with the dough hook until a smooth dough forms. Divide the dough into 2 balls. Wrap in plastic and rest for 30 minutes.
• Cut each ball into 4 planks. Flatten out a plank with your palms and roll the dough to number 6 on a pasta machine. Fold the dough into a trifold and turn so that the folded sides are on the sides of the dough and the open sides are the front and back of the dough. Roll the dough to number 3 on the machine. Coat the dough with cornstarch and cut into square pieces. Repeat with the remaining dough.
• For the filling: To prepare the sofrito, combine the apple, ginger and onion in a pan with a little oil and sweat until translucent. Cool in a thin layer.
• Prepare the pork mixture: Combine the pork, stock, fatback, sesame oil, tamari, white pepper, mushroom seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt and sofrito in a mixing bowl and mix by hand in the same direction until the texture is slightly bouncy/tacky.
• Build the dumplings: Place about 1 tablespoon of pork into the center of each dumpling wrapper, wet the edges and fold to desired shape; store on parchment-lined sheet tray uncovered in the fridge.
• When ready to cook, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, add the dumplings and cook 4 minutes.
• For the fragrant soy and dumpling tare: To make the fragrant soy, combine the cinnamon stick, orange peel, star anise, white peppercorns and licorice in a small pan and toast until fragrant. Add to a pot with the soy, water and brown sugar and bring to a simmer. Let steep for 10 minutes, then strain the liquid. Pour the fragrant soy back into the pot.
• Add the black vinegar, salt and mushroom MSG to the fragrant soy and heat over high heat, stirring, until it comes to a boil and the ingredients are incorporated together.
• For the fragrant Sichuan chili oil: Fry the ginger, Sichuan peppercorns, guajillo chiles, arbol chiles, star anise, cinnamon stick, cloves, ginger, scallion, red onion, cardamom, orange peel and bay leaf in the oil for 30 to 45 minutes at 275 to 300 degrees F. (Do not go over 350 degrees F.). Strain the oil, discard the spices and vegetables, add the chili flake and salt and whisk. Once the temperature drops to 225 to 250 degrees F, add the chili powder and let sit until cool. Then strain through a fine filter.
• For the chili crisp: Starting from cold oil in a pot, add the shallots and bring it up to 300 degrees F, stirring regularly until golden. Scoop ALL of them out with a spider or slotted spoon. Next, add the ginger and cook, stirring often, until golden and crispy; remove ALL with a spider. Do the same with the garlic, and then all the chiles together. Remove the oil from the heat, add the star anise and cardamom and let cool down. Strain the oil through a fine filter. Reserve all the solids (discard the star anise and cardamom). Let the oil cool down naturally.
• Meanwhile, toast and grind the black pepper, cumin and Sichuan pepper in a blender or spice grinder. Grind the sugar, salt and mushroom seasoning as well.
• Once the oil is cool, combine the reserved solids and ground spices in the food processor. Stream in the oil until the desired consistency is reached.
• For serving: To assemble, pan-fry the dumplings with the cup sides down in the oil. Once they have browned a bit on the edges, add 2 tablespoon water and cover so that the top side steams out. Once the popping in your pan has calmed down, all the water has evaporated and it is safe to take the lid off. Remove the dumplings and arrange on a plate.
• First, top the dumplings with the tare, and then the fragrant Sichuan chili oil, and then the chili crisp. We normally finish them with thinly sliced green onion and thinly sliced Fresno chile, but the topping options are endless!

FRIED PORK DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Lightly beat 1 egg in a large bowl. Add the pork, bacon, cabbage, chives, ginger, sesame oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, the sugar, garlic, soy sauce and cornstarch; mix with your hands until combined.
• Lightly beat the remaining egg in a small bowl with 1 tablespoon water. Set 1 dumpling wrapper on a clean surface (keep the rest covered with a damp paper towel so they don't dry out). Scoop 1 heaping teaspoonful of the pork mixture onto the center of the wrapper. Dab a finger into the egg mixture and brush along the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half and press the edges together to seal, then transfer to a baking sheet. Cover with a damp paper towel while you form the remaining dumplings.
• Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in 3 batches, add the dumplings and arrange in a single layer; cook until the bottoms start to brown, about 30 seconds. Add 2/3 cup water, cover and cook 3 minutes. Uncover and cook until the liquid evaporates and the bottoms are crisp and golden brown, about 2 more minutes. Loosen the dumplings from the pan with a spatula and transfer to a serving plate. Add 2 more tablespoons oil to the pan between batches.
• Ponzu Dipping Sauce

PORK DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• To make the pork filling:
• If the pork is not finely ground, mince well with a knife. Place the pork in a large bowl and cover.
• Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat. Add the cabbage; blanch until just wilted. Using a slotted spoon, remove cabbage to strainer set over a large bowl. Press down on cabbage to squeeze out all liquid. Transfer to cutting board; roughly dice.
• Meanwhile, place grated ginger in a small bowl; cover with water and let steep for a few minutes.
• Slice scallions lengthwise, then thinly slice. You should have a good mixture of white, light green, and dark green pieces. Add to the bowl with the pork.
• Place a strainer over the pork bowl; strain the ginger so that the juices are added to the bowl. Press down on ginger to squeeze out all juices. Discard ginger left in strainer.
• Add the soy sauce, cooking wine, sesame oil, salt, and pepper to the meat mixture. Stir in chopped cabbage until completely incorporated.
• To make the wrappers:
• Place the flour and salt in a large bowl. Slowly add water and mix with your hands. Knead the mixture until it forms a soft dough.
• Place the dough on a lightly floured counter and knead until very smooth. Divide dough into 50 small, equal pieces. Flatten each piece with your hand to form a thin, round pancake, approximately 3 inches in diameter. The center should be slightly thicker than the edges.
• To wrap the dumplings:
• Using a spoon or chopsticks, place one heaping tablespoon of dumpling filling in the center of the dumpling wrapper.
• Using your fingertip, wet the outer edge of the dumpling wrapper with water. Fold up the sides of the dumpling into a half-moon shape.
• While holding the dumpling lengthwise, curved side up, use your index finger and thumb to pinch the edges of the dough on one side of the dumpling into "pleats," pressing each pleat against the flat side of the dough to seal the dumpling as you go. Start at one corner of the dumpling and work your way to the center (making three to four "pleats"). Then work from the other corner to the center creating another three to four "pleats."
• Firmly press the pleated side of the wrapper against the flat side to be sure the dumpling is completely sealed. If there is to much filling and the dumpling cannot be sealed, remove the extra filling to prevent leakage during cooking.
• Line up the finished dumplings on a foil-lined cookie sheet to prevent them from sticking. You can freeze dumplings this way for up to one month.
• To cook:
• To cook the dumplings, gently lower them into a medium pot of boiling water and boil for approximately three to five minutes. They are done when the dumpling skins are translucent and the dumplings have been floating for about three minutes. Remove from pot carefully with a slotted spoon.
• Serve hot.
• For Dipping Sauce:
• Mix the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and serve on the side.

• Add the pork and mix to combine.
• Fill a small bowl with water and lightly flour a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Place about 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of a wrapper. Dip your finger in the water and use it to moisten the edge of the wrapper.
• Pinch one end tightly to seal and then make several pleats to close up the filling entirely. Flatten out the bottom. If not pleating, simply fold one half of the wrapper over the filling and press together to seal.
• Set the dumpling on the prepared baking sheet and cover with a damp towel while you continue filling the rest.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 cup of water to the pan, then place 6-7 dumplings in the water. Cover with a clear lid and let steam for 10 minutes, without lifting the lid.
