Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, mix 1/2 cup flour, salt and pepper. Add chicken, 1 piece at a time, and toss to coat; shake off excess. In a 6-qt. stockpot, heat oil over medium-high heat.

Stir in 1/4 cup flour until blended. Gradually add stock, stirring constantly. Stir in wine, sugar, bay leaves and peppercorns. Return chicken to pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 20-25 minutes or until chicken juices run clear., For dumplings, in a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, whisk milk and melted butter until blended. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened (do not overmix). Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet; set aside., Remove chicken from stockpot; cool slightly. Discard bay leaves and skim fat from soup. Remove skin and bones from chicken and discard. Using 2 forks, coarsely shred meat into 1- to 1-1/2-in. pieces; return to soup. Cook, covered, on high until mixture reaches a simmer., Drop dumplings on top of simmering soup, a few at a time. Reduce heat to low; cook, covered, 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center of dumplings comes out clean (do not lift cover while simmering). Gently stir in cream, parsley and thyme. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• 1. Place first four ingredients in food processor and process until fine. Drizzle in the olive oil.
• 2. Mix the ground chicken with the mushroom mixture and add soy sauce and sugar.
• 3. Put some water in a small bowl. Lay our dumpling wrappers and wet the edges. Place a small amount of chicken mixture in center fold in half and pinch to close. Repeat until all dumpling wrappers are used.
• 4. Boil a large pan of water. Carefully drop the dumplings in the water. When they float to the top carefully remove with slotted spoon.
• 5. Place canola oil in large skillet. Brown each dumpling in oil and remove to a serving plate.
• 6. For the sauce mix all ingredients together. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve with dumplings .
• 7. Tip. I couldn't find round dumpling wrappers so I used egg roll wrappers and cut out circles with cookie cutter.

Steps:

• For the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, stir together the ponzu, hot sauce and stir-fry seasoning.
• For the wontons: In a bowl, add the chicken, scallions and stir-fry seasoning. Mix with a spoon until well combined.
• Put a wonton wrapper onto your work surface. (Keep the wonton wrappers covered with a damp towel so they don't dry out.) Place 1 heaping teaspoon chicken mixture in the center of the wrapper. Coat the edges of the wrapper with a little water using your finger or a brush. Fold the circle to form a half moon, pressing out any air bubbles Set aside, covered with a damp towel, while you make the rest.
• When you are ready to cook, place a large, nonstick skillet fitted with a lid over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. When the oil is hot, place the wontons in a single layer in the pan; they should be close together but not touching. Depending on the size of the skillet, you may need to cook the dumplings off in 2 or 3 batches. Cook, uncovered, until the bottoms are browned, about 4 minutes. Lower the heat to medium-low, carefully pour in 2 tablespoons water and immediately cover the pan with a lid. Cook until the wontons are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and serve hot with the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Cut the chicken breast into small pieces and stir fry in 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Let cool until warm.
• In a bowl, combine chicken with remainder of soy sauce, sesame oil, green onion, oyster sauce and sesame seeds.
• Put a small amount of the mixture into each wonton wrapper and fold diagonally. Putting a little bit of water on the edges helps seal them, but it often takes a bit of pressing. Make sure they are sealed so that the sauce doesn't leak out.
• Put the chicken broth and water into a saucepan and bring to a boil.
• Drop the wonton parcels into the saucepan and boil for 3-5 mins (they will look like cooked noodles when they are done). Only put a few in at a time so they are not touching as they tend to stick together.
• Remove with a slotted spoon and serve warm with soy sauce to dip.

Steps:

• Mix ingredients for dipping sauce and set aside.
• Lightly oil a large bowl.
• Put the flour and salt in another large bowl, piled up.
• Make a dent in the top of the pile, and crack the egg into it.
• Mix the egg into the flour.
• Add enough water to the mixture to make a thick dough.
• The consistency should be like bread dough.
• In any case, don't add too much water--it shouldn't be like batter at all!
• Turn the dough out onto the flour-dusted counter, and form into a ball.
• (It helps to flour your hands first).
• Place the dough into the oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap (cellofane).
• Let stand 1 hour.
• Meanwhile mix all ingredients for filling and place in the fridge.
• Next, remove dough and place on flour-dusted counter (or work surface).
• Knead a bit and flatten until very thin (but not see-through or falling apart).
• Using a large, round cookie-cutter (or bottom of coffee can or top of glass) cut three-inch rounds.
• Don't place them on top of each other, as they could stick together!
• Knead the leftover pieces together again and cut more rounds until there's no dough left.
• Spoon a bit of the filling into the center of each round and fold in half (to make a semi-circle shape).
• Seal edges with a bit of water, and use tongs of a fork to decorate the edge.
• To prepare, either steam the dumplings (if you have a steamer) for 15 mins, or boil for 10 mins.
• If you boil, add some oil to the water and don't overcrowd the pan--make them in batches.
• If you like, you can fry the dumplings in a skillet or wok to brown them before serving.
• Handle gently!

Steps:

• DOUGH: Mix flour salt and boiling water with a wooden spoon.
• Add cold water and knead on a floured board, adding flour until a soft dough forms.
• Allow dough to rest 20 minutes, covered with a towel, while preparing filling.
• FILLING: Add all ingredients to food processor and chop fine.
• Roll dough very thinly and cut into 3 inch circles.
• If using wonton wrappers, you can cut into 3 inch circles or make triangles.
• Place 1/2 tsp of filling in center of dough.
• Wet edges and fold over pressing tightly, pushing all air out.
• Place dumplings on waxed paper, and cover with a towel, until ready to cook.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in frying pan.
• Cook dumplings in batches of 8-10. Brown in oil.
• Add 1/2 cup water CAREFULLY to pan and cover.
• Cook 10 minutes, uncover and cook another 3 minutes until water is gone.
• Remove from pan and keep warm in oven while cooking second batch, adding another 1/2 cup water to pan.
• DIPPING SAUCE: Mix all ingredients together and enjoy!

Steps:

• To make the dumplings:
• In a large bowl, mix together the chicken, cabbage, ginger, and scallions until the mixture resembles a fine paste. Add the salt, sugar, chicken powder, white pepper, cornstarch, and toasted sesame oil and continue to stir for 3 to 5 minutes, until well incorporated.
• Dampen a towel under which to keep the rest of the dumpling wrappers while you work.
• Prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet on which to store the already prepared dumplings.
• Place 1½ teaspoons of filling in the center of each dumpling wrapper. Fold the dumpling into a half-moon shape. Hold the dumpling, seam-side up, between your thumb and index finger. Use the index finger and thumb of your other hand to pinch a section of the dumpling edge and pull it toward the web of the holding hand to make a small pleat. Repeat around the edge of the dumpling until you have between 6 and 8 pleats.
• DO AHEAD: After shaping, dumplings can be kept in the refrigerator for up to four days or frozen for up to three months.
• Set up a steamer: Fill a wok with enough water to come up to the lower rim of a steamer but not so much the waterline is above the food bed. (If you do want to DIY it, just use a plate in a pot. Fill a pot with ½ an inch of water. Then make a sort of tripod out of tinfoil by forming three golf ball- sized balls and placing them in the bottom of the pot, making sure their tops rest above the water- line. Rest the plate on the tinfoil, cover, and steam.) Bring water to a boil. Working in batches, add the dumplings, making sure to leave 1½ inches of space between each (they expand as they cook), and steam for 12 to 13 minutes. Let rest for a minute or so to tighten slightly. If you need more water- water tends to evaporate-add boiling, not cold, water so as not to stop the steaming.
• Heat the neutral oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the dumplings, pleat to the side, and pan-fry until golden brown, approximately 1 minute per side.
• To make the dipping sauce:
• Place all ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk together until well mixed and the sugar dissolved.
• DO AHEAD: Dumpling Dipping Sauce can be kept covered in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Steps:

• Whisk together the soy sauce, vinegar, honey, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, sesame oil in a bowl.
