Cooking Instructions
- 1
Peel and devein the shrimp, rub 1 teaspoon of salt (not included in the ingredients list) into the shrimp, rinse, and drain in a sieve to remove any excess moisture.

Cut the shrimp from Step 1 into dices smaller than 1 cm, mince the pork fat, and roughly chop the bamboo shoot.

Put all the ingredients from Step 2 and the seasonings into a bowl, and mix with chopsticks, stirring in one direction until it becomes sticky.

Once the dough comes together, transfer to a working surface, knead while adding vegetable oil until it becomes sticky, similar to the consistency of mochi.

Shrimp and Pork Filled Chinese Chive Dumplings Shrimp and Pork Filled Chinese Chive Dumplings
I was inspired by the Chinese chive buns that I had at a restaurant. I sort of made it up, and the results were delicious. See"Ultra-easy Gyoza Dumpling Skins" for instructions on making the skins.These dumplings are packed with filling. The skins will stretch a lot and you'll wonder "what if it won't hold the filling?" but they will. The dumplings will puff up when they are steam-fried so leave some space in between them. Finally, be very careful not to poke a hole in the dumplings when you turn them over (or the juice will escape!) Recipe by Setsubunhijiki -
Easy Steamed Shrimp and Edamame Gyoza Dumplings Easy Steamed Shrimp and Edamame Gyoza Dumplings
I created this recipe because shrimp was on sale.When you leave the dumplings on a plate for a long time, the liquid comes out. The dumpling skins will stick to the plate, and they might break, so please steam them shortly after wrapping. If you make the dumpling skins from scratch, dumplings will become more chewy and plump.

Plump and Juicy! Shrimp Wonton Dumplings Plump and Juicy! Shrimp Wonton Dumplings
I love shrimp. More than the wrappers and more than the meat, I wanted to emphasize the shrimp! So I used very thin wrappers and filled them with lots of shrimp.The keys to plump and juicy shrimp is to prepare the shrimp properly, and to not cut the shrimp with a knife.Once you boil the wonton they'll look OK, so you can be a bit sloppy when you make the dumplings.You can freeze the formed dumplings.

Jumbo Sized Shumai (Siu Mai) Dumplings with Shrimp Jumbo Sized Shumai (Siu Mai) Dumplings with Shrimp
I wanted to make a large dish for sharing. When I made thes for the first time, I used too many ingredients and they didn't taste so great... but after several trials I settled on this simple recipe.■You can use scallops or squid instead of shrimp too. Use any seafood you like. ■They don't have to be jumbo sized either♪ ■Don't steam them too long ,otherwise you will make the dumplings hard. ■At Step 3 coat the filling with shumai skin cut into strips and press firmly. I think the amount of shumai skin is just right. Recipe by Jirojiro
