2:10 - Yeah that's the tricky part. As you said, the dough is super easy to make as it's just flour and water. However rolling out the pancakes? My wife is able to crank them out quickly, but even amongst her Chinese friends she's one of the few who make her own vs. buying them pre-made like you do. You make the stuffing like she does in the sense that there are no exact measurements really needed, it's all instinct/experience. I've stuffed hundreds of these things but your pinch/push advice...wish I had you as a teacher vs. just "do what I do". :) You do a great job of going slowly so it's easier to follow along from several angles. You only made about 30 in your batch, but honestly it's more efficient to make a 100 (or even 200) at a time as a family and then freeze the uncooked ones for later. One other thing you could have mentioned is that traditionally jaozi are boiled, and if for some crazy reason you make more than you can eat, simply refrigerate them and make pot stickers out of them the next day, cooking them in the pan as you demonstrated. This is probably the best and easiest to follow "how to" video for making pot stickers I've seen, especially for first time people. Thank you!

Gyoza wrappers are not easily available where I live, but I found a workaround. I make the hot water dough, and roll it out with a Pasta machine, then I use a cookie cutter to get my sheets... The cut away dough is recycled through the machine a few times until smooth again and cut again... Until no dough is left... 1h or less work for something like 200 wrappers. If you dust them with starch, you can even stack and freeze them

I pored the flour mixture into the dipping sauce and used it. The taste wasn't that bad, it just took forever to cooked down which in return slightly over cooked my dumplings. I will say this was the first time I ever made my own dumplings. I will be doing it again and again. It took me a few before I got the technique, I am already a pro. Thanks mate. Enjoy your videos keep them coming.
