PERFECT POT STICKERS

Steps:

• Place ground pork, green onions, garlic, ginger, 2 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon soy sauce, sesame oil, and cayenne in a mixing bowl. Top with chopped green cabbage. Mix with fork until thoroughly combined. Tamp down lightly; cover with plastic. Refrigerate until chilled, about an hour.
• Place flour and kosher salt in a mixing bowl. Slowly pour in hot water. Stir with a wooden spoon until mixture forms a shaggy dough. Flour your hands and transfer dough to a work surface. Knead dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. If dough seems too sticky, sprinkle with a bit more flour, about 3 to 5 minutes. Wrap dough ball in plastic, and let it rest about 30 minutes.
• When dough has rested, divide into 4 equal pieces. Cover 3 pieces with a dish cloth while you work the first piece. Roll into a small log about the thickness of a thumb, about 3/4 inch. Divide each log into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin 3 1/2-inch circle on a lightly floured surface to form the pot sticker wrappers. Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.
• Lightly moisten the edges of a wrapper with your wet finger. Place a small scoop of the ground pork mixture onto the center of a wrapper. Fold up the 2 sides and pinch together in the center. Pinch together the remaining edges, forming "pleats" along one side. Tap the pot sticker on the work surface to slightly flatten the bottom; form a slight curve in it so it stands upright in the pan. Transfer to a well-floured plate. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
• Mix together seasoned rice vinegar and soy sauce in a small mixing bowl for the dipping sauce.
• Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Place about 6 or 7 pot stickers in the hot oil, flat side down. Cook until bottoms are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Drizzle in water and quickly cover the pan; steam for 3 minutes. Uncover; reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking until water evaporates and bottoms are browned and crunchy, 1 or 2 minutes. Transfer to a warm serving dish. Repeat with remaining pot stickers. Serve with dipping sauce.

POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine pork, cabbage, mushrooms, garlic, green onions, hoisin, ginger, sesame oil, Sriracha and white pepper. To assemble the dumplings, place wrappers on a work surface. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the pork mixture into the center of each wrapper. Using your finger, rub the edges of the wrappers with water. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add potstickers in a single layer and cook until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side. Serve immediately with soy sauce, if desired.

POT STICKERS RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients, except wonton wrappers, water, and peanut oil, in a bowl and mix well.
• Place wonton wrapper on flat surface and put 2-3 teaspoons of filling in middle. Lightly brush edges of wrapper with water and fold over, pressing edges together until sealed completely. Set aside and finish making all pot stickers.
• Put a couple of tablespoons of peanut oil in large skillet over medium heat. When hot, place enough pot stickers in pan but make sure they aren't touching. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
• Pour 1/2 cup water in pan, cover, and steam pot stickers for another 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat to low, uncover and allow remaining water to evaporate and pot stickers to brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
• Serve immediately with dipping sauce on the side.
• Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well. Store leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator.

POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• Add cabbage to food processor and process until fine. Add diced cabbage to a fine mesh sieve and toss with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Place over a bowl and let sit for 20-30 minutes then press cabbage down with a rubber spatula quite a few times to squeeze out any excess moisture. Set aside. (You can do part of this step in advance and leave the cabbage in the sieve in the refrigerator for as long as you like.)
• Add mushrooms, green onions, ginger and garlic to food processor (you don't need to clean it out) and pulse until finely chopped. Add mixture to one side of a large bowl. To the other side of the bowl add egg yolk and whisk. Add cabbage, ground pork and all remaining filling ingredients and mix with your hands until thoroughly combined. Cover with plastic and either freeze for 15 minutes or refrigerate at least 30 minutes (or up to 24 hours) to chill mixture.
• Line a baking tray with parchment paper and prepare some damp paper towels or a damp cloth (to cover assembled pot stickers and keep them from drying out). Keep all wrappers covered in plastic wrap when you are not using them. Fill a small bowl with water.
• Working with 2-4 wrappers at a time (depending on how fast you are), add 1 tablespoon filling to the middle of each wrapper. Dip your finger in water and run it around the edge of HALF the wrapper. At this point you can either 1) Fold wrapper over in half to create a half-moon shape, pinch the edges firmly together to seal and crimp with a fork OR 2) create 4 pleats (instructions below).
• To create pleats: keep the back, moistened wrapper flat, and work with the front moistened wrapper (you are pleating just ONE side of the wrapper). Start with one side and work across to the other side. First, create one pleat with the front ummoistened wrapper by taking a small portion of dough, making a little fold and tucking it back. Firmly press completed pleat into back of wrapper to seal edges. Repeat for 4 pleats. *SEE PHOTOS IN POST*
• Place filled wrappers on prepared baking tray and cover with damp paper towels/cloth. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
• Place paper towels on a baking tray to place cooked potstickers. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large NONSTICK skillet (that has a lid) over medium high heat.
• Add about 12 dumplings to skillet flat side down, enough that will comfortably fit. Cook without touching until the underside is lightly golden, approx. 2 minutes. Watch closely so they don't burn! - check the bottom of a potsticker occasionally and adjust heat if needed.
• Turn heat to LOW. Stand back and use one hand holding the lid as a shield, as you pour 1/3 cup chicken broth around the dumplings then quickly place the lid on. You can even remove skillet from heat for 30 seconds if this will make you more comfortable against splattering.
• Cook until chicken broth has completely evaporated. Remove lid, increase heat to medium and cook 1-2 additional minutes to crisp up bottoms. Transfer potstickers to a paper towel lined baking tray. Repeat until all potstickers are cooked. Best served warm with Dipping Sauce.
• Whisk together Dipping Sauce ingredients. Add chili sauce to taste if desired.

POT STICKERS (GLUTEN-FREE)

Steps:

• Wrappers:.
• Put rice flour, salt, tapioca, corn starch, sweet rice flour, xanthan gum, and gelatin in a food processor until evenly combined.
• Whisk together egg with 1/2 cup cold water until well blended.
• Turn on food processor and slowly pour egg/water mixture into the dough.
• Open the food processor and scrap down the sides. Make sure the dough is evenly processed. At this point, check to see if the dough will easily stick together but is not sticky. If the dough does not come together to form a soft dough, turn the food processor back on and slowly drizzle water in by the tablespoon (maybe up to ¼ cup more of cold water will be needed). If the dough is too sticky, add a tablespoon of sweet rice flour at a time until the dough forms a soft dough.
• Divide the dough into 2 Tablespoon/small ice cream scoop balls. While working with one ball at a time, keep the remaining dough in a bowl under a damp (but not wet!) towel.
• Press each ball into a small disk.
• At this point, you can either use a tortilla press, a pasta roller, or some serious arm muscle and a rolling pin. Roll the disk into a super flat (think lasagna flat) round or square. (If using your pasta roller, roll to the level 3 thickness. (1 being the thickest setting on my Kitchen Aid pasta roller attachment.) Don't get the wrap too thin or it will rip when you are rolling the egg rolls together with their stuffing.
• For Filling:.
• Divide dough into 15 balls. Keep the dough you are not working with covered with a damp, but not wet, towel. See instructions at the end for rolling them out.
• Crumble pork into a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the pork, cabbage, green onion, ginger, water chestnuts, salt, sugar and sesame oil. Chill in the refrigerator 6 to 8 hours, or overnight.
• Place a tablespoon of the pork mixture into each of the wrappers. Fold the wrappers, and seal the edges with a moistened fork.
• In a large, deep skillet, heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium high heat. Place the pot stickers into the oil seam sides up. Stirring constantly, heat 30 seconds to a minute. Pour water into the skillet (Be careful when you do this because the oil can spatter). Gently boil 7 to 8 minutes, until oil and water begins to sizzle, then add remaining oil. When the bottoms begin to brown, remove pot stickers from heat.
• Serve with dipping sauce of your choice.

SHIITAKE TOFU POTSTICKER RECIPE

Steps:

• Place mushrooms in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Soak for 1 hour. Drain, and finely chop by hand, or with a food processor.
• Press the tofu: Place tofu in a dish and cover with a plate. Put something heavy on the plate and keep it for 30 minutes. Drain off the water.
• Heat 1 tablespoons of the vegetable oil, and sesame oil in a skillet on medium heat. Add minced ginger, garlic, green onions, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Sauté until the garlic starts to brown.
• Crumble the tofu with your fingers and add it into the skillet with the soy sauce and the prepared shiitake mushrooms. Continue to cook until the filling is dry and the liquid is evaporated, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool. Mix in the cilantro.
• Add the cornstarch to the water in a small bowl and mix well. This is glue to help seal the edges of the dumpling wrapper. To make a potsticker, pick up a wrapper and place it in your palm.
• Dip the finger of your other hand into the cornstarch water and wet the edges of the wrapper.
• Place a teaspoonful of filling in the center of the wrapper then fold the edges together, sealing it by squeezing. Careful not to add too much filling so that it oozes out the edges, since this will make it difficult to seal. If you like, add a few folds to the edges of the potsticker.
• Place the finished potstickers on a tray lined with parchment paper. Continue to fill the potstickers and line them up on the tray.
• Heat oil in a skillet on medium heat. Add potstickers and cook until lightly browned.
• Add a couple tablespoons of water and cover. Cook covered until the wrappers turn translucent, indicating that they are fully cooked. Turn the potstickers over and add more water if needed.
• Finish the potstickers by cooking uncovered until golden brown and crispy.
• To enjoy as an appetizer or snack, serve with dipping sauce. For a complete meal, serve with jasmine rice and cooked Asian greens, and pour dipping sauce on top.
• I recommend enjoying this potsticker recipe with my balanced soy chili dipping sauce.
• It's made with sesame oil, ginger, red chili flakes, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sugar, and cornstarch.
• For something even simpler, you can try equal parts soy sauce and rice wine vinegar. If you enjoy the heat, you can add red chili paste to it.

EASY ASIAN POTSTICKERS RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, gently combine all of the filling ingredients with a wooden spoon.
• Prepare a wrapping station by lining two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Lay as many wonton wrappers as will fit onto one baking sheet. Add a scant tablespoon of filling to the center of each wrapper.
• Fill a small bowl with water and set it next to your workstation. Dip a finger in the water and run it along the entire edge of the round wonton wrapper closest to you. Form the potsticker by bringing two sides of the wrap together to form a half moon shape. Begin by pinching the center of the potsticker and work your way from the center out to both sides, pinching to create a seal as you go. Place the completed potsticker on the second baking sheet. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers until all of the filling is used.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet with a lid over medium heat. Working in batches, add potstickers in a single layer and cover the pan. Cook for 3 minutes, then remove the cover and add 1/2 cup water. Recover the pan, turn the heat down to medium low and steam until cooked through (another 5-7 minutes or so).
• Serve with dipping sauce.
