Hot Water Dough For Homemade Dumpling Wrappers Recipes

Steps:

• Place the flour in a large bowl and set the bowl on a damp kitchen towel so it won't slip. Add the hot water in a steady stream while stirring with chopsticks or a fork. Stir until all the flour is hydrated and the mixture becomes shaggy. Let stand until cool enough to handle, 2 to 5 minutes.
• Use your hands to gather and knead the shaggy mass into a ball in the bowl. Turn out onto a work surface and knead until slightly elastic, 5 to 10 minutes. The dough should be tacky but not sticky, and it won't look completely smooth. If it sticks to the surface, flour the work surface lightly and continue kneading. Knead into a ball and cover loosely with a clean damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Let stand for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour.
• Divide the dough in half. Roll one piece to a 1/16-inch thickness. You shouldn't need to flour the surface while rolling, but do so if the dough is sticking. Once the dough is thin enough, lift it off the surface, flour the surface lightly, and place the dough back down. Cut out 3 1/2-inch rounds as close together as possible, then gather the scraps and cover the rounds with the damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Repeat with the remaining dough and knead those scraps with the first batch of scraps, then let rest for 5 minutes before rerolling and cutting. (See Note for a more traditional way to roll the wrappers.) Use the wrappers immediately for dumplings, such as chile crisp dumplings.

Steps:

• In a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment, combine the flour, salt and two-thirds of the boiling water. Mix on medium speed while slowly adding the remaining water until well mixed and a ball is formed and the dough is not too hot to handle, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with a little flour if it gets too wet.
• On a floured surface, knead the dough until it becomes a smooth, elastic ball. Place back in the bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rest for at least 1 hour.
• Working on a floured surface with floured hands, roll out the dough to form a long 'noodle', 1-inch in diameter. Cut 1/2-inch pieces and turn them over so the cut sides are facing up. Flatten with your palm and roll out thin using a rolling pin. The dumpling wrapper should end up about 3 inches in diameter.
• To make the dumplings: Place a small mound of your choice of filling in the middle of the wrapper. (Be very careful not to touch the edges with the filling as this will impede proper sealing of the dumplings. Nothing is worse than dumplings breaking during cooking.) Lightly brush the top half edge with water and fold the wrapper in half to form a half moon shape. Starting on one end fold/pinch the wrapper tightly together. Proceed with this fold/pinch method until the dumpling is completely sealed. There will be approximately 7 to 10 folds per dumpling. Rest the dumplings with the folded edges straight up, then cook as desired.

Steps:

• stir the salt in to the flour, then slowly add the cold water until a smooth ball is formed. Don't add more water than is necessary so you might not need to use it all. knead the dough until smooth then cover and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.
• While the dough was resting, mix together the ground meat, soy sauce, salt, dry sherry and white pepper. Then add the remaining ingredients to the meat, mix well and set aside.
• When the dough is ready, I knead it until formed into a smooth ball and divided in to 40 pieces. flatten each piece into a circle about 4-5 inches in diameter. They don't have to be perfect! If your dough is sticky, just dip your fingers in a cup of water to make handling the dough a bit easier. place a heaping teaspoon of the filling in the middle of each wrapper, wet the edges of the dumpling dough, fold over the edges and pinched to seal.
• To cook the dumplings, bring a large pot of water to a boil, add half of the dumplings and give them a gentle stir so they wont stick together. When the water returns to a boil, add 1/2 cup of cold water and cover the pot. When the water returned to a boil again, follow the same process one more time and then the dumplings are ready. drain and removed them from the hot water and follow the same process with the remaining dumplings.
• At this point, you can eat the dumplings plain, dip them in your favorite sauce, pan-fry, or place in a soup (recipe link attached). http://www.food.com/recipe/delicious-chinese-dumpling-soup-470838.

Steps:

• Place flour in a large bowl, and make a well in the center. Add water to well, and mix together flour and water with your hands using a circular motion. Once dough comes together and is ragged, transfer to a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and pliable, 1 to 2 minutes. Cover with a damp dish towel, and let rest 30 minutes or refrigerate up to 8 hours. (Dough can be frozen up to 1 month; thaw at room temperature before using.)
• Cut dough into 8 pieces, and roll each into a log 1 inch thick and 10 inches long. Cut each log into 10 pieces. Keeping remainder covered with a damp cloth, roll out each piece into a 3-inch round on a lightly floured surface.

Steps:

• To make the dough in an electric mixer, place the flour in the work bowl of the mixer and slowly mix in the boiling water with a dough hook and then add the cold water to form a dough. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead for an additional 5 minutes by hand, or until it is soft and smooth. Divide the dough in half and then roll into 2 cylinders (about 1 inch in diameter). Cover the cylinders with plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes. Alternatively, to make the dough by hand, place the flour in a large bowl and slowly stir in the boiling water. Then add the cold water and mix until well combined. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for 10 minutes, or until the dough is soft and smooth. Divide the dough in half and then roll into 2 cylinders (about 1 inch in diameter). Cover the cylinders with plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes.
• Use a sharp knife to cut each of the cylinders into 26 rounds, and cover the rounds with plastic wrap when not working with them so that they don't dry out. Roll each round into a ball. Then on a lightly floured work surface, flatten each ball into a 3-inch-wide disk, first with the palm of your hand and then using a mini rolling pin and working in a circular motion. The wrappers will keep in the refrigerator wrapped in plastic wrap for up to 2 days.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and the warm water and mix until well-combined.
• Roll out dough on a floured surface and knead until smooth.
• Divide the dough into 4 equal parts.
• Roll out 1 piece of dough into a thin log and divide into 6 or 8 pieces, depending on the size of dumplings you want. Repeat with the remaining dough portions.
• Lightly flour the dough pieces and roll out 1 piece into a thin circle roughly 4-inches (10 cm) in diameter.
• Keep the dumpling wrappers separated with a small piece of parchment paper and repeat with the remaining dough.
• Combine the cabbage, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a medium bowl and mix until well-incorporated.
• For the pork filling, combine the ground pork with the remaining teaspoon of salt, the pepper and 1 cup (125g) of the cabbage mixture and stir until well-incorporated.
• For the veggie filling, combine the mushrooms and carrot and microwave for 3 minutes, until soft. Add 1 cup (125g) of the cabbage mixture and stir until well-incorporated.
• For the shrimp filling, combine the shrimp with 1 cup (125g) of the cabbage mixture and stir until well-incorporated.
• To assemble the dumplings, add roughly 1 heaping tablespoon of filling to the center of a dumpling wrapper. With your finger, lightly coat half of the outside of the wrapper with water. Fold the moistened half of the wrapper over the filling and, using your fingers, pleat the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining fillings and wrappers.
• Heat the oil over medium high in a large skillet and add a few dumplings, cooking them in batches. Once the bottoms of the dumplings start to brown, add a splash of water and cover with a lid. Steam for about 5 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked and the water has evaporated. Transfer the cooked dumplings to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess moisture or grease.
• In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and pepper flakes and stir to combine. Serve the dumplings immediately with the dipping sauce.
• Enjoy!
