551-Style Delicious Juicy Shumai

Featured in 210 discussions! The secret to its deliciousness is the sweetness of plenty of onions. It's tasty on its own and easy to make in a frying pan. Recreate the long-time favorite from Osaka!
The origin of this recipe: A juicy and flavorful filling for pork buns and shumai, developed through trial and error. It's seasoned well on its own, but you can enjoy it with mustard or ponzu if you like. A family favorite! Even when shared, my parents said, 'I didn't know shumai could be this delicious!' Great for freezing and packing in lunch boxes.

For wrapping reference: Make an 'OK' shape with your thumb and index finger, place the wrapper on top.

For steaming in a frying pan: Place a wide plate in the pan, add water below the height of the plate, and bring to a boil. Arrange the shumai on the plate, cover, and steam over medium heat.

A free-size steamer is convenient! Although not shown in the photo, placing parchment paper on the steamer prevents sticking, so give it a try!

Easy and Authentic Shumai Easy and Authentic 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 cookpad.japan -
Sublime Homemade Shumai Dumplings Sublime Homemade Shumai Dumplings
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 cookpad.japan -
