Provided by Rie McClenny

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups bread flour, plus more for dusting
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup water, room temperature
½ lb ground pork
½ cup green onion, sliced
1 large egg
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon ground five spice
½ teaspoon ground suchuan pepper
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1 tablespoon soy sauce
½ tablespoon sesame oil
7 oz raw shrimp, chopped
¾ cup wood ear mushrooms, minced
3 cups napa cabbage, minced

Steps:

  • Make the dough: Combine the flour and salt in a medium bowl. Gradually pour in the water, stirring with chopsticks to incorporate. Once the dough comes together in a ball, knead in the bowl for 5-8 minutes, until smooth. Cover with a damp towel and let rest in the bowl for 30 minutes
  • Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the pork, green onion, egg, salt, five spice, Sichuan pepper, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Using chopsticks, mix until well combined.
  • Add the shrimp, wood ear mushrooms, and Napa cabbage. Mix well.
  • On a lightly floured surface, turn out the dough and knead a few times. Stretch the dough into a 1-inch (2.5 cm) thick ring, then cut to make a rope.
  • Divide the dough into 2-ounce (55 G) pieces, turning the rope 90 degrees after each cut to make triangle shapes. Lightly flour the dough portions.
  • Working 1 at a time, pat each dough portion into a flat circle, then, using a small rolling pin, roll out into a thin circle.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of the filling to the center of a dumpling wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half. Using your fingertips, make pleats to seal the dumpling. Press the edges firmly to fully seal the dumpling. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the dumplings and cook for 10 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through
  • Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
  • Enjoy!

HOMEMADE DUMPLINGS RECIPE BY TASTY



Homemade Dumplings Recipe by Tasty image

Dumplings are intimidating (well, they can be). But they also are, in fact, delicious. No matter what you stuff them with, the concept of pillowy, soft dough encasing a luscious, super flavorful filling is enough to warm you up from inside to out. Well, with our homemade dumpling recipe, we're bringing that warm, fuzzy feeling right to your very own kitchen table.

Provided by Pierce Abernathy

Categories     Sides

Yield 24 dumplings

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt, divided
1 ¼ cups warm water
2 cups red cabbage
2 cups green onion, sliced
6 cloves garlic, minced
4 tablespoons ginger, minced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
½ lb ground pork
½ teaspoon pepper
¾ cup mushroom, diced
¾ cup carrot, diced
½ lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flake

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and the warm water and mix until well-combined.
  • Roll out dough on a floured surface and knead until smooth.
  • Divide the dough into 4 equal parts.
  • Roll out 1 piece of dough into a thin log and divide into 6 or 8 pieces, depending on the size of dumplings you want. Repeat with the remaining dough portions.
  • Lightly flour the dough pieces and roll out 1 piece into a thin circle roughly 4-inches (10 cm) in diameter.
  • Keep the dumpling wrappers separated with a small piece of parchment paper and repeat with the remaining dough.
  • Combine the cabbage, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a medium bowl and mix until well-incorporated.
  • For the pork filling, combine the ground pork with the remaining teaspoon of salt, the pepper and 1 cup (125g) of the cabbage mixture and stir until well-incorporated.
  • For the veggie filling, combine the mushrooms and carrot and microwave for 3 minutes, until soft. Add 1 cup (125g) of the cabbage mixture and stir until well-incorporated.
  • For the shrimp filling, combine the shrimp with 1 cup (125g) of the cabbage mixture and stir until well-incorporated.
  • To assemble the dumplings, add roughly 1 heaping tablespoon of filling to the center of a dumpling wrapper. With your finger, lightly coat half of the outside of the wrapper with water. Fold the moistened half of the wrapper over the filling and, using your fingers, pleat the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining fillings and wrappers.
  • Heat the oil over medium high in a large skillet and add a few dumplings, cooking them in batches. Once the bottoms of the dumplings start to brown, add a splash of water and cover with a lid. Steam for about 5 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked and the water has evaporated. Transfer the cooked dumplings to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess moisture or grease.
  • In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and pepper flakes and stir to combine. Serve the dumplings immediately with the dipping sauce.
  • Enjoy!

DUMPLINGS



Dumplings image

My mother was one of the best cooks I ever knew. When she made stews we mostly found dumplings in them. We never ate things from packages or microwaves and you sure could taste what food was. That's the only way I cook today - I don't use any electronic gadgets to cook with except an electric stove.

GRANDMA'S DUMPLINGS FROM SCRATCH: 100+ YEAR OLD RECIPE



Grandma's Dumplings from Scratch: 100+ Year Old Recipe image

Grandma would always make these for us when we were under the weather. She would cook a chicken in a pot with water, carrots, onions, and celery until it was done. Then she would pull all the chicken meat of the bone, and put it back into the broth (she would taste it after the meat was added and then add salt, pepper, and a little parsley). I always sat on the counter and watched her throw everything in a pan without measuring, and they were AMAZING. Finally, I asked her to write it down for me, and I'm glad I did. Posting on here so I never lose this recipe! She always rolled them out thin and used a knife to cut them into pieces. They were never the same shape, but that's how we knew when Grandma made them :) NOTE: Grandma learned how to make these from her mother, so this is the OLD school recipe for dumplings. I am writing it like she gave it to me. Scant teaspoon means a little under the measurement: not quite to the top but not 1/4 less.

Categories     Stew

Time 20m

Yield 1 big pot, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder, scant
1 tablespoon Crisco
1 teaspoon Crisco
1 pinch salt
1 pinch pepper
3/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Mix the first 6 ingredients together until combined. Slowly add the water until you form a dough. You may have to add more or less water to form the ball.
  • Roll out the dumpling dough on a floured surface thin and cut into bite size pieces.
  • Drop them one at a time into simmering chicken/broth. She would always drop a few then wait a bit, then drop a few more. She said this kept them from sticking together in the end. After they are all added, give a gentle stir (once or twice around the pot, then leave it alone).
  • Let the dumplings simmer in the chicken/broth mixture until they float to the top (about 15 minutes or so). I have let them simmer a longer, and that's fine. She would taste the broth one last time after the dumplings were done for seasoning before we got to eat them!

HOMEMADE MANTI (TRADITIONAL TURKISH DUMPLINGS)



Homemade Manti (Traditional Turkish Dumplings) image

Manti is a famous meal from my country. To prepare this dish takes time, but I'm sure you'll agree it's worth it! Enjoy-afiyet olsun (bon appetit)!

Provided by Asli Ocak

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Dumpling Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups flour
½ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
½ teaspoon water, or as needed
2 onions, peeled
½ pound ground beef
salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 (8 ounce) container plain yogurt

Steps:

  • Combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Add the eggs and water, mixing well with your hands. Add more water, if needed, to form a soft dough. Cover and set aside for at least 30 minutes.
  • Shred the onions and place them in a colander or sieve set over a bowl; drain the juice and discard. Combine the onion, ground beef, salt, and pepper; mix the meat well with a spoon until mashed.
  • Divide the dough into two portions and lightly flour a work surface. Keep one piece of dough covered while you roll out the second portion into a rectangle, rolling the dough as thin as you can. Cut the rectangle into 2-inch squares with a knife or pastry wheel.
  • Place about 2 teaspoons of the meat filling in the center of each square. Seal the dumplings by gathering the edges of the dough and pinching them together at the top to form a bundle. Transfer the finished manti to a floured plate, and sprinkle more flour over the manti to prevent sticking. Repeat with the second piece of dough.
  • Heat the oil and red pepper flakes in a small skillet over low heat just until the pepper flakes have started to color the oil; don't let them burn. Remove from the heat and keep warm. Stir the minced garlic into the yogurt and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat, and cook the manti until the filling is no longer pink, and the dough is tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain well. Divide the manti among four plates. Spoon the yogurt sauce over the manti and drizzle each serving with the hot pepper oil.

Number Of Ingredients 3

150g self-raising flour, plus a little extra
70g suet
small handful of parsley, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Whilst your stew is bubbling, make the dumplings. Weigh the flour into a bowl and add ½ tsp salt. Stir through the suet and parsley, if using. Make a well in the centre and add 3 tbsp cold water, mix to a dough, adding more water until the dough is firm but pliable. Divide into eight equal pieces and roll in a little more flour into balls.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect dumpling dough, use a combination of all-purpose flour and cornstarch. This will give the dumplings a tender and chewy texture.
  • Make sure the water you use to make the dough is cold. This will help to keep the dough from becoming tough.
  • When filling the dumplings, be careful not to overfill them. This will make them difficult to seal and they may burst during cooking.
  • To ensure that the dumplings are cooked evenly, make sure that the water is simmering before adding them to the pot.
  • Once the dumplings are cooked, remove them from the pot with a slotted spoon and let them drain on paper towels before serving.

Conclusion:

Dumplings are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. With a variety of fillings and cooking methods to choose from, there's a dumpling recipe out there to suit every taste.
