some are hard to steam if they have thick skin though.

Would anyone be interested in a chinese dumpling cook along thread in the future?

Fuck yes. Me and the missus cook a batch of 50 dumplings per week. Sometimes interesting variations too.

I like the cantonese style dumplings a lot, especially in a yum cha. Delicious as fuck. But why are xiao long bao missing? They are excellent dumplings and pretty easy to cook.
>>9351448
pan fried are pretty good
>>9351469
Steam them longer

Overall I tend to gravitate back to boiled handmade dumplings. Steamed and panfried are great, but a home done pork and cabbage dumpling with hand made dough boiled is brilliant.

What do you folks think of this recipe? http://thewoksoflife.com/2013/10/dumpling-recipe-youll-ever-need/
I use it as a guideline and modify it as I feel.

I live right next to Brooklyn's Chinatown where four pan fried thin skinned pork and leek/scallion dumplings are a dollar.

Ground Pork
Watercress
Salt
Soy sauce

Mix it up, and start stuffing. Best mixture

餃子 (thick skin) vs. 餛燉 (thin skin)
鍋貼 is 餃子 but panfried. It's the best shit.

and chinese celery for crunch.

but how you making the skins?

>>9351655
sunset park arear?

>>9351679
Exactly.

>>9351677
just buy it. I made the skins once, and it's just a huge waste of time. Basically you're making ravioli.

i live in NYC as well. when i eat out i do it mostly in the chinatowns. tastes good and is so cheap

>>9351746
but I like the thick skins and the ones in store are quite thin.

>tfw I really want to make shrimp dumplings but for some reason you only get preboiled shrimp in Norway (even though they're cheap and plentiful)
Even asked at a specialized fish store once and they told me they boil the shrimp on the ship right after they caught them.
I wish I could make deep fried sweet shrimp like I had them in Japan.

>>9352560
wtf. i thought europe was better food wise than america. y'all can't even get uncooked shrimp

>>9352610
Norway is a culinary wasteland, m8.

>>9352647
but you've got smoked fish at least, right. that must be good
