Assemble the Dumplings
Take a dumpling wrapper and place about 1 tablespoon of the tofu filling in the center. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water. Fold the wrapper in half over the filling to form a half-moon shape and press the edges to seal. Repeat this process until all filling is used.
