I think that "Strictly Dumplings" is light years ahead of the Travel Channel and Food Networks current offerings. The content of critiques, demonstrations and virtual tours are top quality. I have thoroughly enjoyed every one of their videos. Big things are ahead for "Strictly Dumplings"!

[@badhair6384]

10-15 min for Yeast Activation, about 1.5 hours for dough to rise, let dumplings sit for 20-30 min before steaming, steam for 20 min, and let dumplings sit for 5 min after steaming (do not remove steamer lid). It will take you about 3 hours in total to make

Those aren't baozi, then. They are long bao, and if soup-jelly is added, they are xiang long bao, also called soup dumplings. Technically, all baozi are dumplings, but not all dumplings are baozi. 😁

I followed your recipe and they were amazing!!! I did use all purpose flour from a western market and they were kind of yellow but still good! I became addicted to these when a friend of mine, originally from China, would make these and she was such a sweet heart because she would always make about 2 dozen for me to take home. Sometimes they had pork filling but she also did vegetarian and bean fillings. I love your video because it teaches you from start to finish. I still need to practice pinching so mine were not as pretty but still tasted awesome! Thank you.
