HEALTHY STEAMED DUMPLINGS
My family loves Chinese food, but it's hard to find healthy choices in restaurants or at the grocery store. So instead, I make these healthy dumplings into a great family activity. With many hands helping out, filling the dumplings goes by fast. When we are done, we have lots of dumplings to put in the freezer for months to come. -Melody Crain, Houston, Texas

Steps:
- For regular wrappers: Pour boiling water into the flour while mixing with chopsticks. Then add room temperature water. Stir until no more liquid can be seen. Combine and knead with your hands until smooth. Cover the bowl then rest for 30 minutes.
- For crystal wrappers: Mix wheat starch and tapioca starch (or cornstarch) in a bowl. Pour boiling water over (It has to be just boiled). Stir with chopsticks immediately to distribute the water evenly. Then add oil. Combine and knead with your hands until very smooth. It can be used straight away. Remember to cover it well while preparing the filling.
- Put minced pork into a mixing bowl. Add white pepper, salt, sesame oil & water. Stir to combine.
- Add Chinese chives, water chestnut & dried papery shrimp. Mix well then keep in the fridge until you're ready to assemble the dumplings.
- Divide the dough into two parts. Roll each part into a rope then cut into 12 equal sections (24 pieces in total).
- Use a rolling pin to flatten a piece into a thin disc, about 9-10cm in diameter (Please refer to the tutorial below). Dust with flour/starch if it sticks. Remember to cover the unused pieces to prevent them from drying out.
- Place a spoonful of filling on the wrapper. Fold and seal completely. The video below shows you how I fold them in half-moon shape and triangle shape.
- Check out my post and video on "Ten Ways to Fold Dumplings" if you wish to learn other techniques.
- Scatter carrot slices in the steamer basket, then place dumplings on top (This is to avoid sticking. You may use parchment paper or coat the steamer with a thin layer of oil).
- Bring the water to a full boil, then place the basket in and cover with a lid.
- Steam over medium heat for 10 minutes for the regular dumplings, or 6 minutes for the crystal dumplings.
- It's best to enjoy steamed dumplings when warm.
- You can serve them on their own, with a simple mix of homemade chilli oil & black rice vinegar or with other delcious sauces found in my post "Six Dumpling Sauces".
- Keep the leftover cooked dumplings in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, you may either steam for 3-4 minutes or pan fry over low heat with a little oil until piping hot.
- Right after the dumplings are assembled, lay them in a single layer on a tray. Freeze until completely frozen. Transfer to an airtight container/plastic bag. Store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- Cook frozen dumplings: Do not defrost. Steam for 15 mins or so.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Cut the tofu in half horizontally and lay between layers of paper towels. Place on a plate, top with another plate, and place a weight on top (a 14-ounce can of vegetables works well). Let stand 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, cut the tofu into 1/4-inch cubes and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the carrots, cabbage, red pepper, scallions, ginger, cilantro, soy sauce, hoisin, sesame oil, egg, salt, and pepper. Lightly stir to combine.
- To form the dumplings, remove 1 wonton wrapper from the package, covering the others with a damp cloth. Brush the edges of the wrapper lightly with water. Place 1/2 rounded teaspoon of the tofu mixture in the center of the wrapper. Shape as desired. Set on a sheet pan and cover with a damp cloth. Repeat procedure until all of the filling is gone.
- Using a steaming apparatus of your choice, bring 1/4 to 1/2-inch of water to a simmer over medium heat. Spray the steamer's surface lightly with the non-stick vegetable spray to prevent sticking. Place as many dumplings as will fit into a steamer, without touching each other. Cover and steam for 10 to 12 minutes over medium heat. Remove the dumplings from the steamer to a heatproof platter and place in oven to keep warm. Repeat until all dumplings are cooked.
SEW MAI DUMPLINGS
Dim sum literally translates to"fill the heart." I love filling my belly with this Cantonese breakfast! It originated in little tea houses in southern China that served steamed and fried bites with your choice of tea and is the modern version of a culinary swap meet. Masses of people all competing for fresh cooked bites of food auctioned off carts. These are my favorite type of dumpling. Shaped like drums, stuffed with shrimp and pork, they are the best.

Steps:
- For the filling: Reconstitute the mushrooms in hot water for 30 minutes. Rinse them, remove the stems and chop them into small dice.
- In a large bowl, combine the mushrooms with the pork, shrimp, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar, cornstarch, salt and pepper and mix until well combined. (You may also use a mixer with a paddle attachment.) Cover the mixture and let it rest for at least 1 hour and up to overnight in the refrigerator.
- To assemble the dumplings: Lay a dumpling skin on your work surface. Place about 2 tablespoons filling in the center. Hold the filling in place with your fingers and use the other hand to twist the skin around the filling. While twisting, make sure to flatten the top of the filling into the skin. Place the bottom of the dumpling on the work surface and flatten it out. Repeat this process until all the filling is gone.
- Steam the dumplings in a steamer basket on high heat until cooked through, about 7 minutes.
- I love eating these with soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, and hot mustard.
SIOPAO (FILIPINO STEAMED DUMPLINGS)
Warning - this recipe is not easy, but well worth the effort. This is a Filipino dish with Chinese roots. A steamed, almost sweet, yeasty bun filled with delicious chicken filling can also be made with shredded pork. You will need a bamboo steamer.

Steps:
- Dissolve yeast in the water; stir in the sugar and beat in 2 1/2 cups of rice flour to make a soft sponge. Set aside in a warm place to double in bulk, about 40 minutes. Mix in 2 more cups of rice flour and 1/4 cup of shortening and place the dough on a greased work surface; knead in the remaining 1/4 cup of shortening to make a smooth dough. Cut the dough into 15 equal-sized pieces; form each piece into a ball.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the onion and garlic in the hot oil until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken, soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of sugar, green onion, salt, and pepper. If the mixture is juicy, add cornstarch to thicken.
- Working on a lightly greased work surface, flatten a dough ball into a circle about 4 inches in diameter with the heel of your hand. Place about 1 tablespoon of filling into the center of the dough ball, bring the edges of the dough together at the top, and pinch and twist to seal in the filling. Place each filled dumpling onto waxed paper with the pinched seal at the bottom while you finish the rest of the dumplings.
- Spray a multi-layered bamboo steamer with cooking spray, place the steamer on top of a large saucepan, and pour in water to several inches below the steamer. Bring the water to a boil.
- Working in several batches, place 3 or 4 filled buns into each steamer layer without letting the buns touch each other or the edge of the steamer, cover the steamer, and let the buns steam over medium-low heat until puffy and the dough is springy, about 15 minutes per batch. Serve warm.

CHINESE STEAMED DUMPLINGS WITH DIPPING SAUCE
I used to love this Chinese-restaurant appetizer so much that my mother reverse-engineered the recipe. These dumplings have an interesting taste and are great for parties. They also freeze well. Hope you enjoy them--it's worth the work involved.

Steps:
- Mix ingredients for dipping sauce and set aside.
- Lightly oil a large bowl.
- Put the flour and salt in another large bowl, piled up.
- Make a dent in the top of the pile, and crack the egg into it.
- Mix the egg into the flour.
- Add enough water to the mixture to make a thick dough.
- The consistency should be like bread dough.
- In any case, don't add too much water--it shouldn't be like batter at all!
- Turn the dough out onto the flour-dusted counter, and form into a ball.
- (It helps to flour your hands first).
- Place the dough into the oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap (cellofane).
- Let stand 1 hour.
- Meanwhile mix all ingredients for filling and place in the fridge.
- Next, remove dough and place on flour-dusted counter (or work surface).
- Knead a bit and flatten until very thin (but not see-through or falling apart).
- Using a large, round cookie-cutter (or bottom of coffee can or top of glass) cut three-inch rounds.
- Don't place them on top of each other, as they could stick together!
- Knead the leftover pieces together again and cut more rounds until there's no dough left.
- Spoon a bit of the filling into the center of each round and fold in half (to make a semi-circle shape).
- Seal edges with a bit of water, and use tongs of a fork to decorate the edge.
- To prepare, either steam the dumplings (if you have a steamer) for 15 mins, or boil for 10 mins.
- If you boil, add some oil to the water and don't overcrowd the pan--make them in batches.
- If you like, you can fry the dumplings in a skillet or wok to brown them before serving.
- Handle gently!

- For dough*, place flour in a large bowl. Make a well in center; pour in warm water. Using a fork, stir just until a shaggy dough forms. Cover with plastic wrap. Let stand 15 minutes. Add oil. Mix until combined and dough forms a ball. Transfer to a lightly floured surface. Knead until soft and smooth, about 5 minutes, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking. Sprinkle lightly with flour; cover with plastic wrap. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, prepare desired filling; chill. Line the bottom of a bamboo steamer basket with a piece of parchment cut to fit. Using a sharp knife, make several slits in paper; lightly coat with cooking spray.
- Divide dough into four equal portions. Roll one portion of dough at a time into a 12-inch log (keep remaining dough covered with plastic wrap). Using a ruler as a guide, cut into 1-inch pieces. Press each piece into a circle, then roll to a 4-inch circle. Spoon 1 tablespoon filling in center. Working your way around the dumpling, pull the dough up over filling, creating pleats to enclose. Pinch dough at the top and twist.
- Transfer to prepared steamer basket. Repeat with remaining dough and filling. (Fill and shape remaining batches of dumplings while the first batches steam.)
