Stir and knead until combined. Cover and let sit overnight. - Cut dough into slices and roll out into tubes - Cut off small sections of the dough, one per each dumpling - Flour your working surface - Press dough out onto surface, with a rolling pin, work your way around the dough and flatten it into a small circle. Make it as thin and flat as possible Creating the dumpling: - Dollop out a small amount of mixture onto the dumpling - Take one side of the dough and fold it over the dumpling. Carefully work your way around both edges, being careful to not press any mixture between the folds - When you've finished, close off the seams one more time for extra security. - Follow the same steps to create a massive dragon dumpling, except when closing this off, take one side and begin working clockwise or counterclockwise from that spot, folding the dough over itself until you've wrapped it entirely. Cooking the dumpling: - For regular dumplings, bring a pot of water to boil and drop them in. - They will be ready when they float to the top and have small wrinkles in them and are slightly transparent - For dragon sized dumplings, pour water into a steamer and place the dumpling on top of a bed of lettuce on a ceramic plate. - Bring the water to a boil and place the dumpling inside, closing the lid. Let it steam for 15-20 minutes. Making dipping sauce: - Combine 1 parts black rice vinegar, 2 parts soy sauce, and 1 part sesame oil. Mix together. - To add extra spiciness, try stirring in some red chili paste. Serve hot and eat up! Happy new year! ================= Send us things!
