Mise en Place 🔪
Directions
Prep 🥒
Fill the large pot halfway with water and place on the stove on low heat.
Place ½ lb ground pork into the other mixing bowl.
Very slowly add the ½ cup chicken broth and mix into the pork.
Slowly add the seasoning mix and add into the pork mixture. Place the bowl into the fridge.
Finely mince the ginger, slice the scallions and chop the cabbage. Lightly season the cabbage with salt and mix to incorporate.
Knead the dough for 2-3 minutes or until smooth.
Squeeze the cabbage with a kitchen towel to remove all excess water. Add the squeezed cabbage, scallion, and ginger to the pork mixture. This is the dumpling mix.
Follow along as we form the dumplings. Transfer them onto the sheet tray lined with aluminum foil and sprinkled with flour.
How to Cook 🍳
Bring the large pot of water to a boil. Fill up a mixing bowl with cold water.
Add the dumplings to the boiling water and allow the water to come back to a boil. Once boiling, add a small amount of cold water. Bring back to the boil and repeat 2 more times. This is a great technique to cook the dumplings quickly, but not allow them to swell up with air!!
Remove the dumplings from the boiling water and plate them up. Dig into those delicious dumplings with some dipping sauce and enjoy!!
