Ingredients
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 cup of water
- 1 pound of ground pork

- 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of sesame oil

- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Gradually stir in 1 cup of water until a dough forms.
- On a floured surface, knead the dough for 5 minutes, then cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix together 1 pound of ground pork, 1/4 cup of finely chopped green onions, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 1 teaspoon of grated ginger, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 2 cloves of minced garlic.
- Divide the dough into small balls and roll each ball into a thin circle.
- Place a spoonful of the pork mixture in the center of each circle, then fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal.
- In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Carefully drop the dumplings into the boiling water and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
- In a separate pan, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the boiled dumplings and cook until the bottoms are golden brown.
- Serve the dumplings hot with soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
Dumplings have a rich history dating back to ancient China, where they were considered a symbol of wealth and prosperity due to their resemblance to gold ingots. These delectable parcels of dough filled with savory meats, vegetables, or sweets have since spread across the globe, each region adding its own unique twist. From the delicate xiao long bao of Shanghai to the hearty pierogies of Eastern Europe, dumplings come in a delightful array of shapes and flavors. Chefs like the renowned Din Tai Fung in Taiwan have elevated the art of dumpling-making to a fine culinary craft. Today, the best dumplings can be found in bustling street markets of Asia or at cozy family-owned restaurants in Chinatowns worldwide. Whether steamed, boiled, or pan-fried, the key to perfect dumplings lies in the balance of the dough and the filling, ensuring a delightful burst of flavor in every bite.
