Some time ago, I was so busy taking care of my children, plus I had to cook for my large family. I was trying to make as many shumai dumplings as possible as fast and easily as possible, and tried making these quickly in just 15 minutes, using ingredients I had on hand. They looked luxurious, and the taste exceed my expectations and got rave reviews. Since we can all enjoy them together, they've become a family favorite.If you're using ground pork, I think it's a good idea to use a generous amount of oyster sauce.When cooking the shumai, if any of the kitchen parchment paper is sticking out from under the lid it may catch fire, so watch out for that.I recommend serving this to many guests or at parties too. For 4 to 8 servings - 2-3 batches using a 28 cm [11.0 in] diameter frying pan. Recipe by Karenmamacchi

Delicious traditional simple recipe..

It was too much trouble wrapping them, so I came up with a twist.It's better to spread parchment paper on the bottom of your steamer.Place your steamer on top of water that's already boiling.Cook it constantly on high heat. For approx. 12 to 15 dumplings. Recipe by Cosy19

Shumai are what is called, Steamed Chinese Dumplings. In Japan, we make by using ground pork, chopped onion and when eating, we dip it into soy sauce, vinegar, karashi (Japanese mustard). Green peas are bright green, so they are used to lend color to shumai.

It's my vaunted shumai that's been passed on from my mother. It's so authentic that some people even ask me if I bought it in Chinatown, but it's actually easy to make.The key is to make the onions feel flaky with corn starch. This will help make your shumai moist. Use a steamer if possible. If you're microwaving, spread Chinese cabbage leaves underneath to prevent the skins from drying up. It's well-flavored and shouldn't need soy sauce. For 40 shumai. Recipe by Celery salt

Thank you for taking a look at my recipe.I love juicy pork shumai dumplings as well as sweet shrimp shumai dumplings, but in the pursuit of making something that was as healthy as possible, I wanted to make tofu shumai dumplings too.These are low in calories, have no added oil and are good for you.It's important to drain the tofu well to start.I made them bigger than the usual shumai dumplings.I used wonton wrappers this time, but if you use shumai wrappers instead, you will need to 25 to 30.These are "hana-shumai" (flower shaped shumai - the shredded wrappers look like petals) so they're easy to form.

I can't remember when I started making this. Everyone in my family says these are yummy.The secret behind the softness of these shumai is to add water and the leftover juice from the canned scallops.When you're wrapping it, place it on a flat surface and squeeze the sides firmly. This will give them nice finish. For 30 shumai dumplings. Recipe by Mangetsu152000

I have made these shumai for my family for the past 20+ years.You don't need to place the shrimp on the top for decoration.Step 2 If you don't have a steaming basket, place on cabbage leaves or parchment paper. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

Always love dim sum..and shumai is one of my fav food. Simple recipe yet so delicious.

My mother has been making these shumai for a long time.When filling the dumplings, I use two disposable chopsticks to neaten up the shape. Even if the dumplings are a bit misshapen, after they are steamed you won't notice it much. If you are steaming them in a microwave, the cooking time varies depending on how many you're cooking. I think it's about 4 to 5 minutes per 10 shumai, covered with plastic wrap. Recipe by *tsumuji mama *

Because we don't have a steamer!You could use chopped cabbage or Chinese cabbage instead of bean sprouts.If there's not enough moisture from the bean sprouts, please add a little water.The vegetables underneath soak juice from the shumai, and it's delicious! For 4 servings. Recipe by Unagiinu

I made this because I had imitation crab and shumai wrappers.Knead the mixture well.These shumai are soft and moist.When forming the shumai, pressing down on the top with the middle finger of your right hand while turning it with your left hand will give the shumai a clean, cylindrical shape. For 4 servings. Recipe by RION4026
