    When you bite into this dumpling, you can really taste the result of the caramelized aromatics.
    INGREDIENTS
    For the wrapper
    280 grams of all purpose flour
    180 grams of hot water
    1/2 tsp of salt
    2 tsp of vegetable oil
    For the filling
    500 grams of ground pork
    2-3 tbsp of vegetable oil (Amazon link - geni.us/jlg85dn)
    1 cup of diced onion
    1/3 cup of minced garlic
    2.5 tbsp of minced ginger
    2 tbsp of soy sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/XhhnS)
    1/3 cup of chicken stock or water
    1.5 tbsp of oyster sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/nmsF8)
    1.5 tbsp of Chinese cooking wine (Amazon Link - geni.us/Bhf1r)
    1/2 tsp of sugar
    Black pepper to taste
    1/3 cup of scallion
    160 grams of corn blanched or frozen
    For the dipping sauce
    2 tbsp of pure peanut butter (Amazon Link - geni.us/NuU9TbS)
    2 tsp of pure sesame butter (Amazon Link - geni.us/WRmWkHx)
    1 tbsp of sugar
    1/3 tsp of salt or to taste
    1/2 tbsp of soy sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/XhhnS)
    1/2 tbsp of chinese black vinegar (Amazon Link - geni.us/JBaKmyL)
    3-4 tbsp of boiling water
    Chili flake and sesame seeds as garnish (Amazon Link - geni.us/wq0w7L)
    INSTRUCTIONS
    Combine the all-purpose flour and salt then pour the boiling hot water into the flour in batches. Stir to cooperate. Let it cool for a couple of minutes.
    Form the flour into a rough dough. Add 2 tsp of vegetable oil and knead it until the oil is absorbed. Cover and rest for 15 minute. Knead it again for a few more minutes or until smooth. Shape it into a log then cover and rest for 30 more minutes.
    While waiting, we can caramelize some aromatics. Add vegetable oil, diced onion, minced garlic, and minced ginger to the wok. Stir over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes or until the garlic bits are golden brown. Turn off the heat and add the chicken stock, soy sauce, oyster sauce, chinese cooking wine, sugar, and some black pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly.
    Combine the ground pork with the caramelized aromatics. Stir in one direction for 3-5 minutes to develop the texture. Add diced scallion and sweet corn. Mix thoroughly and your filling is done.
    The dumpling dough has been rested for 30 minutes. Roll it into a long even log then divide into 40 pieces (11-12 grams each). Lightly dust some flour to prevent stickiness. Cover with a damp towel so they don't dry out.
    Take one piece of the dough. Dust it with a little more flour. Flatten it with your hand first, then roll it into a round wrapper.
    Put about 1.5 tbsp of filling in the middle. The left hand holds the wrapper and the filling. Pinch the right corner and lift it up. Pinch a pleat on the bottom half of the wrapper, then make one on the top half of the wrapper. One after another. Repeat this all the way until the end. Rub the little tip to close the dumpling.
    To steam the dumplings, line the steamer with a damp cheesecloth and place the dumplings in. Start with cold water. Once it comes to a boil, continue to steam for 12 minutes. You can also use parchment paper to prevent sticking. Just make sure you poke some holes to allow the steam to go through.
    Serve with peanut dipping sauce.
    Knowledge Point: The water ratio for this dumpling wrapper is 64% while the regular homemade dumpling wrapper is usually 55% or less. That is because hot water denatured some of the protein and the flour can now adsorb more water without being sticky. The dumpling does not contact the water directly while steaming, with a little bit of extra water that we forced into the dough, the skin will come out nice and soft.

    With living in a smaller town, we have little options for good quality Chinese food. We adopted our daughter from China and I wanted to provide comforting dishes for her that she has some vague memory of (she loves noodles). It also allows me to learn how to make the foods that I experienced while there.
    Souped Up Recipes is among my top channels that I subscribe to for learning how to cook Chinese food. I can tell how much effort and love she puts into her videos and how she is constantly learning over the years.

    My Dad was Chinese, our family is from Hong Kong but he came to the states when he was about 6 and got bullied really bad growing up. Because of this he never felt comfortable teaching me about our culture. After he passed suddenly when I was 17 I’ve been studying all the time to get closer to my heritage. I appreciate you sharing this recipe so I can better make dumplings from scratch for my family. I know my dad would’ve liked to see me make them too

    It’s embarrassing to admit but I’m Chinese and the daughter of a wonderful Chinese Mom who is an amazing cook! However I moved away after college and never learned to cook all the traditional Chinese, specifically HK, dishes I loved as a child. So when I found you channel, I was super thrilled to be able to replicate some of my Mom’s dishes.
    Your videos are professional yet easy to follow. You’re super happy which is a big deal for me b/c I love enthusiastic and positive people like myself. 😄 So in a way, it’s almost like learning to cook with a friend.
    The results is what matters so that’s why I subscribed. You rock! P.S. I think your style of cooking is an awesome representation of Chinese cooking and hopefully shows non-Chinese cookers that it’s worth a try to learn and enjoy.

    My kids became fascinated with Chinese cuisine after taking part in a 3-week intensive Chinese language course. One of the favorite times of the course was learning how to make dumplings. Of course, I had to learn how to make them myself so that they could continue to enjoy this amazing dish! Your videos were the best I came across. You always explain everything so well, beyond just what to do, but also why and how things can be done differently. Thank you so much!!

    You are so enthusiastic and calm at the same time! I find the details and tips you share really helpful when I try your recipes. The one I make the most often is for garlic vegetables. I want to learn to make thin dough well (like noodles or wrappers) and you have given me the confidence to try.

    I subscribed from the very first video of yours I saw - the dumpling folding one. I was so impressed with the quantity and, at the same time, quality of the information that you shared, while still having that peculiar ability to keep it interesting and non-condescending feeling, that I subscribed before even finishing the video. I have only gone on to find more of the same in your other videos, so now I just keep telling everyone I know who likes Chinese cuisine to come check out your channel!
