Thank you all who participated this time.

Traditional Chinese Shandong dumplings

Ingredients

Minced Pork: 1b

Minced Shrimp: 1.5b

Chinese Leek: a bunch (shred)

Eggs: 2 or 3

Dumpling skins


Spices


Salt: 5-8 g

Sugar: 3g

Chicken power: 1g

Ginger: a small piece, shred

Green onion: 1-2 stalks

Sesame oil: 3g

Cooking wine: 8g

Method


1.Stir raw eggs with all ingredients and all spices until well mixed. Make sure that you have a moist dumpling stuffing.

2.Place 1 teaspoon of stuffing into each dumpling skin. Moisten edges with water and fold edges over to form a triangle shape. There's no need to worry about shaping perfect dumplings because they will puff up as they cook.

3.Drop the each dumpling into a pot of boiling water and cook for about 15-20 minutes.

And we are done!


This is the dumpling skin that we used this time.
You can get them at Safeway.
