Random suggestion, I watched this series because I am poor and I like to cook lol. I love the idea of breaking down how much each item is, but may I suggest doing "frozen value". Meaning you may spend $30 on the project, but if you store it and freeze it properly you will get x amount of meals for x amount of dollars, maybe with some extra suggestions about how to freeze and reheat properly. Makes the hole endeavor feel much more $worth it$ and honestly would really mean a lot to me personally, as I would use that information probably every meal that I eat if I had it. Also, sorry to be so annoying, but I would really love a "reduce reuse" episode where you feature all the more costly ingredients that may have been left over from your previous recipes, like leftover chicken, bones, seasonings and spices etc. To make a nice meal without paying extra

[@ImmortalSpacebar]

leftover bones make great stock for soup, spices can be used for almost anything, extra vegetables, trimmings and etc all go great in stews. Im a huge fan of saving like bacon or sausage grease for later to cook eggs and whatnot and ngl pretty much everything leftovers gets eaten as a snack or thrown in a stew

[@Sigster41]

I’d love to see an “OVERALL COST” to get all the ingredients brand new, just to give a whole price idea for people who want to try the project. I understand that they’re cheaper by serving sizes, but I feel like that info would be great to have.

[@BSGSV]

Good point. But for dumplings, you don't need any of the tools or any expensive ingredients in bulk. All you need are groceries you can buy just what you need: a pack of skins, ground pork, a small, cheap cabbage, green onions, flour, soy sauce, a piece of ginger, vinegar, some chilies or chili flakes or chili oil (about $3 if you want to splurge on a bottle).

[@csfynabranch4496]

A good trick that many Chinese chefs use when making dumplings is that they would mix the meat with the seasoning and marinate first and put the veg on top. Wait until they are ready to fill the dumpling and then mix the meat and veg together, that way the veg won't sit in salt and soy sauce and drain out all their water and won't developed that rotten-like vegetable smell, either.

Here's some quick advice from a Chinese man who grew up making Jiaozi. 1. Since this recipe is more like Jiaozi (Chinese) than Gyoza (Japanese) definitely add some oyster sauce to your filling. Oyster sauce adds extra umami to the whole thing. 2. Steaming jiaozi is nice, but boiling them is easier, requires less stuff to do, and tastes almost exactly the same. 3. When pan frying it's easier to just add the water and oil together and doing the lidded part first. This prevents any oil popping from adding the water in the middle. 4. For the dipping sauce use rice vinegar instead of white vinegar; it just tastes better this way. 5. For the cabbage, nappa cabbage is better tasting than the round cabbage. (My family's recipe uses a whole nappa cabbage per lb. of pork if anyone wants to try.) 6. Traditionally you would chop your filling ingredients even finer than this. You want to make it so fine that everything melds together. If you ever get a bite of an individual something in your jiaozi or gyoza filling you're doing it wrong. 7. You want your filling veggies to be as dry as possible. My way of doing this is adding the salt to the veggies and letting the salt do it's work then straining out the liquid with a cheese cloth. 8. You don't have to wet the outside of the wrapper when you're folding them if you just don't over flour them while making them. 9. If you're making the wrappers the traditional way to roll them out is by tearing the dough into small balls then partially rolling it with a rolling pin, backing off, and rotating the dough with your other hand, then repeat the partial rolling and rotating until you have a round wrapper. This process gets you a wrapper that isn't perfectly flat but bulged out a little in the middle. The reason you want this is for consistency of the final product. After you wrap the outside parts of the wrapper get doubled up, but the center doesn't so having a little extra there makes the whole thing more even.

I literally just made his old dumpling recipe last week… Some tips: YOU *WILL NOT* USE ALL OF THE FILLING! YOULL USE HALF, MAYBE 3/4! If you make the pan fried version, adjust the cooking time. Let the bottoms brown for 2 minutes, and add 1/3 cup water to the pan. Let it steam for about 5 minutes. This ensures your pork is cooked! If you don’t have a pasta extruder don’t bother making the dough. It takes much longer than it’s worth to roll it out by hand. Wonton wrappers work just as well if you can’t find gyoza wrappers! You don’t be able to shape it as well because it’s not the correct shape but it cooks the same way and works just fine. It cooks the same and acts the same.

Another tip for making skirt dumplings (aka hanetsuki gyoza): try using a hybrid slurry of AP flour and cornstarch, I recommend starting with a equal parts to start. cornstarch makes your skirt (or wings) lacier, light, and crisp. You can use whatever ratio you want, like josh said, AP flour makes it crunchy, and cornstarch =crispy, so use less cornstarch and more flour for crunchier skirts, and cornstarch for lighter and crispier skirts. Also, please add a little salt in your slurry. if you dont season the slurry, the wings will fry up and it will taste like an unsalted potato chip. You might say it doesnt matter if you dip it in gyoza sauce, but it absolutely does, especially for people who dont dip a lot of sauce onto the gyoza, or for big pieces of skirt/wing on your dumpling. heres a great video on hanetsuki gyoza by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIuzq6eunK2oeQ

for anyone curious, these store pretty well in the freezer. after wrapping them, place em on a parchment-lined baking sheet, freeze them for about 1-2 hours, then you can place them in a freezer safe bag.

[@chinoman1129]

@@TheFreddog97 iirc, I had mine for almost 6 months and they were still good. And yes! You can cook em from frozen. I usually do the pan fried method so I add 2-3 min to the cooking time Papa suggests. Not so sure about the steam way if you're cooking from frozen

I’m Japanese and I approve his recipe!! one tip for those vegetables lovers like me - you could use cauliflower or minced tofu instead of meat. Make sure to sprinkle salt and squeeze the moisture out beforehand. I like to add more cabbage as well, almost half of my filing is composed of cabbage, but it’s same, make sure to squeeze the water before you mix them with your meat/plant filling base. Then it won’t make your dumpling dough soggy. happy days :)

@@FutureCommentary1 Cook from frozen. The most classic way of cooking is boiling and we just plop them straight into the water. If you're boiling though you can't use Josh's techniques on how to make dumpling skins - it will burst apart if you aggressively freeze. His techniques are what southerners use which do not survive the boiling process. Classic mistakes. If you want a dumpling that survives, you have to roll those circles out by hand. In doing so, leave more dough towards the center, since that dough will get stretched when you form the dumpling. Dumpling filling itself needs to be more congealed so you shouldn't process it by hand towards the later stages of mixing but rather mix in one direction (with chopsticks). You want it to be more like a meatball.

If my chinese grandparents that eats dimsum at least 3 times a week enjoys frozen dumplings, they cant be as bad as josh makes them out to be right??

[@XiuHang]

IMO frozen dumplings aren't bad, they're just no where near as good as when I make it myself. That doesn't mean I won't eat frozen dumplings. As much as I prefer the experience of a homemade jiaozi, I don't want to spend literal hours rolling and wrapping a bunch of jiaozi even though I know it'll make a week's supply.

[@tallyjones8917]

Depends where you get your frozen dumplings I guess. Frozen ones from an Asian market are banger but the ones at a common generic store can be 🤢 IMO (of course you can say that about anything, but I think many Americans only know how the super cheap ones sold at like Walmart/Albertsons/etc. taste)

[@Daniero1994]

When grandma makes you food it will always taste better thanks to her secret ingredient - love.

[@the1fame853]

store bought ones probably taste the same as this recipe, there is a lot better recipes out there. not too different just more seasonings and sauces to flavor the filling

[@ben76326]

In my opinion frozen dumplings taste really good, but home made ones are even better. But like you said home made dumplings take significantly more time and effort to make.

[@00Noontide]

I've eaten gyozas the whole day. This was so good 🤤. Thanks for the recipe!

[@evk-1350]

It's so simple yet so delicious

[@hanabir4]

Even tho im an asian and i come from a line of chefs I still fail to wrap a perfect dumpling after 60 more tries Im an disappointment as a son and a chef to my family and now i shall aplause your dumplings making skills

[@masterhide]

60 isn't enough. Keep doing it. It takes practice. By the time you hit 200 it'll be a walk in the part. And honestly it doesn't take that long to get there. That's only like 4 packs of wrappers. You got this. Ask your family to teach you and don't give up. (Comung from another azn from a family of chefs)

[@Kinsata]

I'm starting to think the sesame oil was optional just to keep the price down. I can't imagine it being actually optional, it's so good.

[@FlameRat_YehLon]

Vinegar is a must, everything else is optional. Some even says that you don't use vinegar to eat dumplings, you use dumplings to drink vinegar.

[@geneshields3782]

Very comprehensive thank you will be making these

[@barbaradavidson1950]

Thanks so much I learned so much. Now time to cook some!

[@Bringsbane]

I've been making dumplings for years whenever I have the time to make them. Yours look fantastic! Bonus point for Kendrick's reaction to the crispiness. xD

Absolutely, without a doubt the best dumpies I have ever consumed!! The time it took to hand roll made the process a very fun and exciting time, I only rolled out 11 wrappers and had 11 dumpies, I have many leftovers so I will be excited for the next couple of days. Thank you for the fun and easy to follow video.

[@Veltree]

I’ve made my own wrappers a couple times, it’s just too much work for the reward imo. Much better off just going to the Asian food store and grabbing pre made ones in the refrigerated section (they’re usually better anyway 🤣) and since the fillings, cooking and sauce are so easy, homemade dumplings are that much more easily accessible.

[@diannt9583]

Agreed!

[@prettyadorkableash5152]

I also buy my wrappers. I usually buy a bunch of they are on sale 1.50$ sometimes since they freeze well.

[@RaffyAloFukit]

I bought your cookbook! You are constantly changing the game in accessible recipes and cooking, especially through the lens of Economic Empowerment. Thanks!!!

[@robertshannon4547]

Really inspiring and thank you Joshua

[@madmansprinkles]

My girlfriend taught me how to make pan fried dumplings and it's my favorite thing that I've learned to make, doesn't take long and you can fold them in any way you can think of that would look cool. Hand rolling them into circles takes longer, but it's all we can do, she is also a master at pleating those things, I like to fold them in the round way like dumplings. 8/8 ez and fun to make.

Ok so on a totally unrelated note- binge watching ur videos made me realize how much I rlly rlly love them like the way u present yourself end the way u present ur food and stuff.. just wanted to say that :D

[@christinaify]

Fun thing about the homemade dough is you can experiment with different shapes. The classic soup dumpling shape requires the middle of the circle to be a bit thicker than the sides so the bottom of your dumpling has the ba-donk to handle all that soup.

Nice. They sure look tasty! The dough recipe I use is from Andrea Nguyen's book and it's just flour in a food processor that you add 95° water to. Simplest dough I ever made and it works every time.

Please make pork hash dumplings! They are so delicious and the place I always got mine from when I lived in Hawaii served them with a sauce that was made of dry Chinese mustard powder, Aloha Shoyu, and a little bit of water. We would eat those and manapua (pizza, hotdog, roasted pork, egg and cheese, etc) for breakfast and lunch twice a month at least. Dumplings are so delicious and I love that so many places around the world have their own dumplings because little pockets of filled dough is always a good choice in my experience..

[@giannasky1609]

I just made these today and spent $13 on everything I needed AND I have enough ingredients to make another 2 batches (46 more dumplings) (except for the pork. I would have to get more). everyone loved them and thought they were delicious. I am perfectly okay with spending less then $20 on about 70 dumplings. great job josh. ignore all the people that give you crap for pricing out everything the way you do. those are clearly the people who don’t cook on a regular basis.

[@jorgemanjarrez6429]

Right? Like is he supposed to put the price on a whole bottle of salt every episode ? Or other simple seasonings that you’ll be able to use with other ingredients in the future. I think the people that say this are people that expect to go to the grocery store, but all the ingredients, and then use all of them. Even a simple ham and cheese sandwich would be like 15 bucks if you bought all those things at once and then people would say “oh josh that’s not cheaper.”
