Have you tried freezing them after you form the pot stickers, before any cooking?
Will you make shrimp scampi?
Let it be stressed how important it is to thoroughly cook your pork, or steam it in this case.
Chef John.. I really like your humor! :D Thanks for making these vids. Really useful for everyone. #forkdontlie :D :D :D
Please either switch to METRIC or provide the recipe with both measurements , I absolutely hate using cups and tablespoons !!!
Yeah well you’re the Chef John of my heart
Haha I knew you would comment!

I'M SHIPPING SO HARD RN
You will be collaborating with Chef John, wont you?
Please, please make a colab!
People worried about dying from under-cooked pork, listen up. First of all, these days, you have an incredibly tiny chance of getting sick from eating under-cooked pork. It's a proven fact that eating a salad is far more dangerous. So relax. I've actually eaten pork tataki, where just the outside was seared, and the inside was raw, and it was fine. Having said all that, the small portion (less than 1 ounce) we put in the dumpling is way past fully cooked after the frying, steaming (which is intensely hot), and the second frying. I'll never understand why people are so terrified of under-cooked pork. Ask someone who works in an emergency room the last time they had someone with a case of pork poisoning rushed in. They'll be like, what?
Food Wishes PREACH
Food Wishes Yup! I remember one of my instructors in culinary school saying the exact same thing. The same people will also say perfect scrambled eggs are "undercooked."
Food Wishes what I remember wasn't that you'd be poisoned but that you'd get worms from the under cooked pork- but it is quite possible that this is no longer the issue it was back in the olden days say before 1995 -haha
AMEN!!!
+food wishes
Did you use lean pork? I made these before and when it cooked, a ton of fat pooled into the dumpling.
I love seeing Chef John's reflection in the mixing bowls.
Who are you? Joe Biden?
weaselmaster98 me too-always makes me smile!
Chef John is after all the Heidy Ho, of our CZcams Home Improvement show.
@@KevinRoehler ??????🤦
I like how in the reflection you can tell that in every one of his videos, he's never wearing a shirt
Made these for the first time and they came out perfect. I added my chili oil to the soy sauce and sesame oil along with some brown sugar. My hubby said”Move Over P.F. Chang’s.” He always loved P.F. Chang’s potstickers so this is the best compliment. Thanks Chef for another great recipe.
Every time chef John uploads, I immediately have to go to the store to get ingredients to make the dish immediately.
Same. I got everything but ground pork!
That's dedication. Cheers man.
You used 2 immediately, meaning that you are really passionate? XD
Same!
dam u must good
Oh my god, a Binging with Babish shout-out!
A Binging with Chef John collab is the thing I need most in my life right now.
Yes! I would die.
literally.
"The Binging with Babish of your cabbage" - WORLDS COLLIDING, MY HEART CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS
Made this today with store-bought wrappers and cooked according to your instructions and it was a success! Thanks!
after you cut up the cabbage, throw it in a ziploc bag with a little salt and shake it! it softens the cabbage and removes moisture so it binds better with the meat!
I'm Chinese, and I must say these look very delicious. This has my stamp of approval.
Did you use Bat or Pork?
@@michaelreilly3513 sir, im gonna need you to log off, before i report you to black twitter ;)
@@louisabackstage I have no idea what you're talking about.
Dry humor is the secret sauce of this channel - “cut the end off a broom handle, if you’re not married” along with the “irony” of using a non stick pan. All too funny.
scasey1960 1 like for trying! Good try!
Hella funny
"plus you can actually rewind on youtube now"
chef john pls
Some tips:
Add water to your ground pork first, mix until well mixed and bouncy. This makes the pork super tender. This tip came from my grandpa with a lifetime of experience.
Add salt to your cabbage. Give it some time. Use cheesecloth or a tea towel, wrap some in there and squeeze the moisture out. It’ll make the cabbage more crunchy in your potstickers. Yum.
When rolling out your dough to become wrappers, if you’re more advanced, don’t roll the middle. Leave a “pillow” so you can roll the outside thinner and it won’t break as easily. Don’t use the rollers with handles. Like Chef John said use a roller with circumference of a broom handle. You can find these at any Chinese grocery/kitchen stores.
Alice Li I'm doing the same with the cabbage! :) and yesss! roll just the edges real fine and make the lucky 18 folds!
can confirm the "add water to the meat" technique. Haven't tried draining the cabbage.
My grandma also added a bit of cornstarch along with the water
I think I know, But why no cutting the broomstick if you are married? Hum?
My chef uncle adds oil and water to make the meat tender and he's extremely great at churning out little pillow wrappers.
HEY! Sick shout out to Binging with Babish
The TV show "Supergirl" brought me here. Living in Maritimes Canada, I never heard of potstickers before. Looks so good! Thank you for showing these easy steps.
His voice is soothing and a very talented person. So many various dishes he made from different parts of the world. Thanks A million, Chef!
What I love about this guy is the cadence I his voice and the corny jokes that he thinks that we miss. 😂😂😂 Love it!
"Because I want to show you the rest of this technique... And I'm starved"... it's indeed these little gems every now and then in between :)
I once told Chef John that he's always coming up with these awful puns that I wish I had thought of first.
Jokes? What jokes? Hahaha!
I bust a gut laughing out loud multiple times on everyone of your videos. You have the best sense of humor and delivery of jokes. 99% of known comedians can't hold a candle to you. Keep up the great work!
“Plus you can rewind in CZcams now” 😂😂😂😂 love it!
Man, I made these last night. And they were quite literally the best pot stickers I've ever had. And I've had some awesome pot stickers. Mine were no where near as pretty as chef John's. In fact, I made mine about twice the size. Although I thought I'd made the pastry lumpy, the 30-minute rest made it as smooth as silk and easy to work with. Gosh I can't say how delicious these were. Way better than any restaurant I've been to.
This is a good recipe. Here are some other things my family adds to our filling:
sugar (to balance the saltiness of the soy sauce)
white pepper (to give the fillling a bit of a bite)
rice wine (to both moisten the filling and give smoother flavor)
cornstarch slurry (to give the filling a bouncier and more juicy mouthfeel).
Thanks for the tips! :)
Yummy! Thanks! 👍😊
Thank you. 😊
Try pure maple syrup instead of sugar. It's great anytime you want sweet, salty, and spicy hot. Great in salad dressings too.
Yooo Chef John referenced Binging with Babish! Awesome
"Fork this mixture, fork it good!" Kills me! Trying this recipe right now!
"The binging with babish of your cabbage" I'm dead!! 😂😂😂
Genius!!
Fork it, and fork it good.
Tamera Howard 😏😊 I caught that too.
Fork this pork just like you should
Fork it real good.
Fork you.
No
In Korea, the dipping sauce is made using vinegar, soy sauce and (white) sugar, with additional flavourings such as minced ginger, spring onions, white onions and chili depending on how spicy you like your food, and the mandu/potstickers have other ingredients in them like rice noodles and tofu to really give them body and to balance out the intense flavours of the sauce and/or filling. It's actually pretty interesting to see how the different EAsians make the same dish, because they each have their own twist to the flavours.
Did anyone ask u. I will ask though, what is your favourite sauce for dog?
@@jinxUKBK wow
@@jinxUKBK wtf is wrong with you
I cheat when I make potstickers and use pre-made wonton wrappers. I bow to your genuineness Chef!
I love Chef John. I always watch his videos when I need to relax and he always makes me feel less anxious.
Love will do that.
My favorite chef making one of my favorite foods, this is a good day.
Chef John, your videos are great and inspire me to continue improving my culinary skills at home. Cooking has become one of my most treasured hobbies so thank you for helping me and countless others pursue a most rewarding passion. I cannot wait to try these, I actually have never been much of a fan of pot stickers myself, but my mother and brother love them so I will be making it for them. Cheers!
Brad...What a kind, LOVING son & brother you are...Cheers back "atcha"... : )
Thank you so much for every single recipe you add, John! You're truly amazing at what you do!
Is there no corner of the Planet not subject to your mastery??
✌️❤️😁
Omg I'm so happy you made this video! We don't really have many places that sell dumplings on takeout here in Norway, but I tasted them in Sweden, and I just absolutely can't get enough of them. And now, finally, I have the power to make them myself!
you can make lots of them and freeze the uncooked ones, then cook them from frozen, it just takes a little longer to do and a little more water and steaming time, if starting from frozen pot stickers.
Ooooo! Finally can make this myself instead of paying $6.99 for 6 from my local chiense carryout.
cute girl Where I live in Mexico, I’m pretty sure the restaurant just buy theirs from Costco, which is where I buy the ones that I eat at home. Once I figure out how to make my filling perfect, I am never again buying these at a local restaurant!
The pork does get completely cooked and they come out amazing. Thank you Chef John!
I love potstickers!Man these look good!
I love how Binging with Babish and Chef John have both made reference to each other 😂
Hey John I'm an American living in Taiwan. Steaming and frying is exactly what I do while they come out fantastic.:)
this chef is a rolles royce chef presenting food with a difficulty level that is beyond the ordinary kitchen.
And as always ENJOY .... yeah?
I'm a simple man. I see potstickers, I click like
Binging with babish collab when??
Sooner than later would be nice
That's gonna cause a great reverberation in the force.
Oh man that’d be amazing!
My wife and I absolutely love your videos and your humor. I made the energy bars. Turned out great !
Made these today and they were OUTSTANDING! I fried all three side and steamed at the end! I like mine more crunchy then doughy 🤷♀️! Turned out amazing and they didn’t even need dipping sauce! They were that delicious 😋!
*1:14** Lol! I asked him today if he ever watches your channel! That's awesome.*
Dan Smoke did he reply?
He has said in one of his videos or maybe his Reddit AMA that he's watched all of Chef John's videos :)
Pretty sure he also made a chef john reference in his video lately ;)
He Did :)
Babs leveled up! Chef John mention is epic.
Yummy! Thanks Chef John. I make Gyoza all the time, with pre-made wrappers as well as homemade like yours. For those worried about under cooked pork: I have boiled these dumplings (with homemade wrappers) until they float, then drain on a rack til slighly dry 15 minutes then you can pan fry to crispy. Personally I let the boiled dumplings cool then freeze in ziploc bag for frying later. I like the chewy texture it produces. I add water and potato starchor flour to meat mixture as well as an egg. I also blanch my cabbage or bean sprouts, squeeze excess water first. I hand stir in one direction until mixed well. Don't know why that works but I Saw that on a Japanese cooking show. It comes out very moist and delicious!
I was extremely worried about under cooked pork!!
This is only the second time I've seen someone cook potstickers like this. It's my preferred method.
Thank you, Chef John! These are simply the BEST potstickers I have ever had. LOVE LOVE the filling. I did cheat the second time I made them and bought Wonton wrappers (I was making 60 and I had issues with getting the dough right the first time. They still turned out amazing.
Wife: “What are you laughing at so hard?”
Me: “Cooking video.”
Watching practically 3 years later: "...whatever you think normal thumb thickness is..."
*proceeds to look at thumb
*realizes it's weak and impotent
*laughs hysterically
*continues watching the tutorial with serious intrigue
Never fails to amaze me. Chef John even added the dough recipe when I was thinking to buy won’t ton wraps
Speaking of wooden spoons... Where is the freakishly small wooden spoon at? I miss it...
It's such a lovely friend and we all miss it.
I have faith that someday it will return.
Legends foretell a great day when the spoon will return
Chef if you haven't already pleeeease contact babish for a collab. He loves your vids and he'd be stoked! Love the vid as always
Grace Fortune omg I still remember u when u comment on my video 😊❤️
Our people are talking.
Food Wishes yayyy! You are the best ever
Simple Cooking Videos still watching them =)
Yes yes, we will eagerly wait for this collaboration to take place
I really like how you're so calm and have a bit of humor throughout the video. Once I'm able to get all the ingredients for this, I'll definitely make these potstickers. :)
I love potstickers! Who knew they were this easy to make! Thanks Chef, plan to try these this weekend!
“Which you could make... by cutting the handle off a broom... if you’re not married” *laughed for five minutes straight* 😂
Oh snap BWB represent!
Chef John, you are a fantastic teacher. I have been watching your video for years. Thank you for sharing your passion for cooking with us.
These look so awesome! I love potstickers, thank you, Chef John, I'm gonna try this recipe as soon as I can!
Hello chef John! Made these with roast chicken instead of pork. They were great, but jeez, took me 2 hours from start to eat time! Also, this recipe is for A LOT of dumplings, I made over 20 from these quantities. Best done when you're feeling ambitious! Good luck!
Yum!! I'm going to make these this weekend.
I am 72; been cooking since I was 8. But these are new. I kept waiting for some scary, obscure kind of steaming technique. What a joy to find that even first time potsticker fans like me can turn out a perfect batch.
Hi Ms. Cynthia, Do you have any advice if your dough is too dry, like how to correct it? Do you have to start all over?
PORK POTSTICKERS! One of my most favorite foods. Your pork recipe made my mouth water ... can’t wait to try to make them.
Add some finely sliced ginger to the vinegar dipping sauce... It will taste even better with it
Thank you so much, Mr. Chef! That was great review - Now I remember how to do it! By the way, you have a very unique speech pattern.
Made these last night for the family and they came out perfect. Everyone devoured them instantly!
I LOVE this guy!!! I watch all of his videos!!! and he is so FUNNY!!! Thanks so much!!
Awesome to hear coming youtubers shouting out other cooking youtubers
replace water with water mix with rice vinegar and cornstarch. you will see the edge of the grill potsticker with a crispy vinegar edge.
I love your voice there’s just something about it that makes it so nice and pleasant to listen to
Tried out this recipe last night and it was phenomenal!! Best potstickers I've had in a very long time. Thanks for this simple and inexpensive recipe
Wow .. love watching from India ❤️
Yummy
"Fork this mixture and fork it good..."
bmx687 what the fork ;)
Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Great voice. It removes the tension to cook something you have never cooked before.
You are easily my favorite food channel to watch... If im thinking of cooking something i come here first for recipes.
“It never hurts to put in a nice shake of cayenne.” The Anthem of Chef John XD please make an apron or shirt that says this I would buy it
An apron that says "just a touch of cayenne" lol
@@lostsol7613 I do this. It's an excellent, never fail cooking tip.
My family doesn't pinch and fold potstickers this way. I learned from my grandma how to make a pleated fold to seal it. This way is simpler for beginners though! Good intro
It's so true! Not everybody is too happy when they first get to a party but give it some time and everything comes together. MAIN reason you let ingredients sit together.
I made these for dinner tonight, and the family loved them. Thanks for the inspiration.
OH MY GOD THEY REFERENCED EACH OTHER
When did Andrew Rea reference Chef John ?
Quick dough processing question - Would it matter if you rolled out a huge sheet of dough and cut circles out? Seems easier than rolling them all individually.
Try flattening each small piece of dough a little bit then rotating the circle as you roll out the edges (its confusing) but it's more evenly flattened. The thing you mentioned might work, but the sheet of dough has to be very very very thin.
You're the reason I started cooking.
I tried these for the second time. The first time I made the dough myself and could not get it thin enough. This time, I went with some commercial wonton wrappers and could not believe how well they turned out. They looked absolutely beautiful and just like what you would get handmade in a restaurant. What made them stand out, and made them worth the work, was the succulent filling. I used some lovely ground pork from my friends’ farm, and then followed the rest of the ingredients as per the amount of pork that I had. The proportions were perfect. I think the last time I had a little bit too much meat for the vegetables and seasoning. This time it was spot on. This recipe made enough for about 40 dumplings. I had a feast and then froze the rest uncooked to enjoy later.
Idky but when you narrate, it reminds me of Danny DeVito’s narration in Matilda
“To that we will add a nice pinch of cayenne” - Chef John on every single recipe
Binging with babish of your cabbage! Love the cross over!
This one will be tried and if I can make them, they will be the perfect present for my granddaughter who loves pot stickers. Thank You so much!
Hey just a little suggestion: I have made potstickers for a few years and my recipe is identical to yours except for one thing: shaoxing wine. Add 1 tablespoon of shaoxing wine to your recipe and they'll be even better!!! I usually add a tiny bit of flour to make them silky smooth but it's optional.
You sir are an amazing cook !!!!
yes! i like to add a little sugar and white pepper to my basic dumpling too.
KYLE MEYER You're right I usually put a bit of sugar too. But I've never put white pepper in it. NICE!!! I shall add that to the recipe. Always good to learn from others
"What kind of crazy person would plate this that side down?"
Me: ...
Chef John finally makes a dish that I know how to make and do regularly make!
I made these along with the dipping sauce today and they were as delightful as you promised!
Shaggy Dough remembers me of Rickon's poor wolf; Shaggy Dog
When i make dumplings. I do roll whole dough at once and then cut circles with big glass. left overs i reroll and do it again, till very little left. What do you think Cheff John? And i do boil them! But i will try this method of cooking, looks very interesting! Thank you!
You can do that with the dough, but I think the main reason people cut it into small pieces before roll is to avoid the dough becomes dry and form outer layer skin. I guess you can just put it back in damp towel while filling the dumplings. You can always boil it but chef john wants to steam it to get the crust on the bottom.
I started doing these today using the "roll each little ball of dough" method out, but then just said, ah, screw this, and rolled a few big sheets out and cut them with a glass like I do when I've made pierogi. I really didn't see or taste any difference between rolling them out individually vs rolling them out in bulk and using a glass or cookie cutter. If anything, the glass-cut ones looked much better and were easier to deal with, as they were all uniformly sized circles.
Thank you for this recipe for one of my absolute favorite foods! I'll have to try this very soon...
“Fork it good” equals LLLLLOOOTS of compliments
Moist moist moist
You know I don't eat meat anymore, so a majority of your dishes are not relevant to my life, but I still regularly watch videos as they're released because chef John's voice and description is just so perfect.
mollysuxxxx
Well, here you have a recipe you can adjust to your liking. Just add tofu or mashed beans for consistency.
Lol, the joke "how do you know if someone is a vegan? don't worry, they'll tell you" is so damn true..
cube of meat literally not vegan and the inclusion of my statement was important to the concept lmfao
lunayen I was thinking maybe just adding in some other veggies or even a meat replacer! But I like the idea of tofu
Although pork is hard to beat for the filling, you can easily make them without meat.
Shiitake mushrooms are my favourite vegetarian/vegan filling, but if you are into tofu, that works too. Actually, it's one of the only ways I enjoy eating tofu.
I made these with the help of the video and link and they turned out great! Loved them 🎉
I made these tonight and they were wonderful! Thanks Chef John!
Reminds me of Polish pierogi, but steamed and with better filling
