Dumplings are a must-have for families. When you make them yourself, you can add any fillings you like. Make a big batch at once and freeze them for later—it's budget-friendly and delicious. (Home-style dish)

Steps

30 minutes

1

Finely chop the cabbage. Add 3 tablespoons salt, mix well, and let sit for 15 minutes. Do not rinse; squeeze out excess water. This step keeps the vegetables crisp after freezing and cooking. If you plan to cook the dumplings right away, you can skip this step.
2

Soak the dried shiitake mushrooms in water, then chop them into corn kernel-sized pieces for a chewy texture. Finely chop the cilantro. Be sure to squeeze out any excess water from all ingredients before mixing with the ground pork.
3

Mix all the ingredients together with the seasonings. Cover a large plate with plastic wrap and sprinkle with some flour—now you're ready to wrap the dumplings.
4

If you don't plan to eat all the dumplings right away, place the plate directly in the freezer. Once the dumplings are frozen, transfer them to a zip-top bag to prevent the wrappers from cracking.
5

You can boil or steam the dumplings—both ways are delicious.
6

Highly recommend using imported sesame salad dressing as a dipping sauce for these dumplings. The flavor is amazing.
