  • Do not overcrowd the pot with dumplings. If you do, the dumplings will not cook evenly and may stick together.
  • Cook the dumplings until they are cooked through. This will take about 10-12 minutes. You can check to see if they are cooked by inserting a toothpick into the center of a dumpling. If the toothpick comes out clean, the dumplings are cooked.
