Method
Dumpling Preparation
Make the Dough
In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead until a smooth dough forms. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken or chopped vegetables, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix until well combined.
Form the Dumplings
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out circles using a round cutter (about 3 inches in diameter). Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle. Fold and pleat the edges to seal.
Cooking
Steam the Dumplings
Bring water to a boil in a steamer pot. Place dumplings in the steamer basket, ensuring they are not touching. Steam for about 15-20 minutes or until cooked through.
Prepare Sweet Sesame Soy Sauce
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey (or sugar), sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Stir until well combined.
