[@nasirahmed7199]

It would have been nice to have the recipe of the dumpling filling???

[@ericroman]

+Nasir Ahmed A secret (I used to live in China for 5 years). There is no secret. Only, whatever you decide, use soy sauce and chopped garlic/chives/scallions as a seasoning and sesame oil as a flavor/lubricant. You can experiment by adding fish sauce from Thailand or Vietnam, crushed spicy red peppers for a kick... but those two basic ingredients will give you that "authentic Asian" flavor.

[@MrCougar214]

I like adding chopped cabbage for that crunch.

[@sockowe1209]

I made it to the filling stage, then my fat fingers couldn't make the pleats. Screwed up on like 6....then I made the dough too thin. Ugh. Finally gave up and put it all in the fridge. Pulled it all out tonight and just made pouches ( pouch method is soooo much easier) which worked out fine. Laid them out on a lightly greased baking sheet, covered them with plastic wrap, and froze them...only made 25....but they were bigger and I had half the filling left, so I froze that as well. This really is a project, you know. But practice makes perfect, and I love dumplings, so. Next month....if my ra doesn't flare up. GOOD LUCK FOLKS!

In fact, most people in China make dumplings by using the part between the thumb and index to seal the dumplings. This can greatly improve the rate of making dumplings, but it takes practice.

[@juliosantos9289]

I hear you Jasmine. Recipes like this and eggrolls take ALOT of time. These are recipes when you have the day to yourself and you can take your time. I make a fast lo mein dish before doing this and eat that while I make a big batch of dumplings or eggrolls. That way your satisfied and can eat the dumplings for dinner.😊

[@zp944]

Another thing you can do with the dough, instead of kneading for ten minutes, knead it for 2-3, let it rest for 5-8, then knead it again for 2-3 minutes. I find it becomes smooth that way with less work

[@user-go1zn3wd4m]

Do supermarkets in your area sell frozen dumplings? In the town where I live, you can buy a bag of dumplings for just five yuan (about $0.8), enough to feed yourself. Bring some water to the boil, then pour the dumplings in. When it comes to the boil again, add a little cold water. Boil again, add more. When you add enough three times, the dumplings are already cooked. Just fish them out and eat them. The whole process takes less than 30 minutes, simple and cheap. I recommend the pork dumplings with light soy sauce, they are very delicious. Vegetarians can try cabbage dumplings.

Use wonton wrappers square or round... N fillings can be frozen for later if you made a big batch.

And soysauce ( tamari) . kecap manis from my homecountry indonesia or low sodium soysauce and crushed fresh ginger( adding a little bite to it) . happy cooking. For lumpias or eggrolls add nutmeg( pala) little sprinkle of sugar... No need to write down recipes. Use your tastebuds. Lidah or tongue lol.

What Chinese put in. I am Chinese. 1. Raw pork and Chinese cabbage ,soybean sause,Salt ,mix 2. Raw pork and green union or celery , Salt, (Chinese soybean ) mix. Taste a a little for salty or not. 3. My favorite one. Cut fragrant-flowered garlic ( Chinese chives) and fried eggs, Salt, mix. Taste a little for Salt. If you dislike pork, you can use beef. Remember use pulper to deal with mixture of meet and vegetables but don't use it deal with vegetables only unless you just want to cook juice.

Can you freeze rolled out circles for future use? How long do they keep if you freeze them? Also how do you freeze them? Can you freeze filled dumplings?

Or is it just better to make them fresh everytime?

[@arnoldjay208]

Elmari Jankowitz You can't freeze roll, but you can freeze filled dumplings. You can put light flour on trays and leave dumplings on it. After dumplings get frozen, you can put them in bags or other containers, but still need put in freezer. I suggest you finish them in one month. Hope it's useful to you.
