Dough

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Dough

    In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add the boiling water while stirring with a fork until the dough begins to come together.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 3

    Mix the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped green onions, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Assemble Dumplings

  1. 4

    Roll Out the Dough

    After the dough has rested, divide it into small pieces (about 1 inch in size). Roll each piece into a circle about 3 inches in diameter.

  2. 5

    Fill the Dumplings

    Place about 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape and pinch the edges to seal tightly.

Cooking Dumplings

  1. 6

    Steam the Dumplings

    Place the dumplings in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper. Steam over boiling water for about 15-20 minutes or until the filling is cooked through.
