Handmade Potstickers

Cookpad Online Cooking Class, Session 3 - Practical 02
Although I spent quite a bit of time rolling out the dough, the potsticker wrappers turned out wonderfully chewy and delicious—definitely worth the effort to make them by hand! When served, the crispy, lacy bottoms and juicy, flavorful filling were a big hit with my family!

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Mix the all-purpose flour and salt together. Pour in the hot water and stir clockwise with a spoon or chopsticks. Once the hot water is absorbed, add the cold water and continue stirring clockwise until the dough looks like coarse crumbs. Knead the dough by hand until it comes together. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for about 15–25 minutes. (If the dough feels too dry while kneading, add a little more cold water to adjust the texture.)
- 2
While the dough rests, combine all the filling ingredients in a bowl. Mix well until sticky, then refrigerate until ready to use.
- 3
Divide the rested dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope and cut into small pieces (I cut each rope into 10 pieces). Place the dough pieces in a bag with some flour, shake to coat evenly, and leave them in the bag until ready to use.
- 4
With the cut side facing up, press each dough piece into a round with your palm. Use a rolling pin to roll each into a thin circle. Repeat for all pieces, placing the finished wrappers on a floured plate to prevent sticking. (Cover unused wrappers with plastic wrap to keep them from drying out.)
- 5
If needed, moisten the edge of a wrapper with water. Place a spoonful of filling in the center, fold the wrapper in half, and pinch the center to seal. Place on a plate or work surface.
- 6
Using your index and middle fingers, gently pull and press the edges outward and downward to seal the filling inside. (Your fingers will be standing on either side of the potsticker as you do this.)
- 7
Repeat steps 5–6 until all potstickers are assembled.
- 8
Mix the flour and water for the slurry. Heat a skillet and add a little vegetable oil. Arrange the potstickers in the pan, fitting as many as will fit comfortably.
- 9
When you hear sizzling, spoon the flour-water slurry over the potstickers (enough to cover about half their height). When the slurry starts to bubble vigorously, cover the pan and reduce to medium-low heat.
- 10
Cook until the slurry has evaporated and the bottoms are golden and crisp. Remove from the pan and serve.

Revolutionary! Amazing Chinese Cabbage-Based Gyoza Pot Stickers Revolutionary! Amazing Chinese Cabbage-Based Gyoza Pot Stickers
We had a dim sum party the other day and I made my cabbage-based gyoza pot stickers that we make once a week as a detoxifying dish.The pot stickers came out crispy with a glutenous filling, and the Chinese cabbage gave it a delicious glistening and sweet punch.A while back, when Chen Kenmin ("father of Chinese Sichuan cooking" in Japan) made dim sum on his show, he explained that it was important to give the filling a glutenous texture when mixing the minced meat with seasoning. He also said that using Chinese cabbage as a flavoring ingredient will help the filling blend well and bring out the flavors. The gyoza pot stickers will turn out crispy if you add water when you start frying. For 3 packs worth gyoza pot sticker wrappers: 4 servings. Recipe by Okaraseijin cookpad.japan -
Crisp! Light! Juicy! Supreme Gyoza Pot Stickers Crisp! Light! Juicy! Supreme Gyoza Pot Stickers
Since Chinese cabbage tends make the stickers too moist, I used regular cabbage and onion instead.Precooking the onions brings out the sweetness and puts it on par with Chinese cabbage.A scant amount of meat helps keep the insides from shrinking.Slicing the cabbage and onions as thinly as possible gives it a nice light texture.Do not squeeze the moisture out from the vegetables.It's tastier when seasoned well with black pepper. For about 50. Recipe by Cherry shokudou cookpad.japan -
Handmade Soba Noodles Handmade Soba Noodles
The first time you make soba, it's easiest to use a 7:3 ratio of buckwheat (soba) flour and bread flour.Apparently, it's hard to make soba noodles using supermarket buckwheat flour because it's too dry. Ask your favorite soba restaurant to sell you some flour. (This includes the flour for dusting.) Recipe by kie cookpad.japan -
Handmade Spring Roll Wrappers and Gyoza Skins Handmade Spring Roll Wrappers and Gyoza Skins
I think this homemade skin/wrapper is more bouncy and chewy than storebought. It's fun to make with the kids, you can make memories as well as delicious things together. If it's difficult or just a bother to roll the the gyoza skins out so they're round, you can roll out the dough in a large piece and cut it out with a cookie cutter or something similar (like the lid of a container). I've never done it that way myself, but I've seen it done on TV in that fashion.The key is to keep rolling out the dough until you think you can't possibly roll it thinner.

Easy Handmade Gyoza and Wonton Skins Easy Handmade Gyoza and Wonton Skins
I learned how to make gyoza dumpling by dividing them into small portions and rolling each one out into a circle, but it's a lot of work so I created this simpler method. I think this is perfect for beginners. Handmade skins are chewy and delicious.I use 50g each of bread and cake flours, but you can just use one or the other. Make sure to dust the skins with lots of flour if you stck them. If you freeze the skins without flouring them they tend to stick together easily. If you fill the skins to form the dumplings, and line them up on plastic wrap without touching each other they will freeze nicely. Once the dumplings are frozen, you can pack them in a plastic bag.

Handmade Gyoza Skins Handmade Gyoza Skins
I didn't have any gyoza skins on hand, but I wanted to make"Deep Fried Gyoza Dumplings", so I made them myself!I didn't have much time, so I didn't rest the dough.Adjust the amount of hot water slightly.It's important to make the dough rather soft in order to skip the resting time!Cover the dough while it's waiting with a wrung-out moistened cloth to prevent it from drying out.The skins don't stick together, so I don't think you need any flour for dusting. For 7 skins. Recipe by kurausu cookpad.japan -
Handmade Udon Noodles Handmade Udon Noodles
There are many different ingredient ratios for making udon noodles. I tried several versions, and of them all I thought this one is the best, so I decided to upload it.You don't have to buy medium-strength or all-purpose flour just to make udon noodles. (Translator's note: all-purpose flour is not usually stocked in Japanese home kitchens, but bread and cake flour often are.)It's often written that you need to adjust the amount of water used from 40 to 45% depending on the season, but I find that dough with just 40% water is too stiff and hard to knead! Dough made with 45% water is still very delicious.In the wintertime, try to rest the dough in as warm a place as possible. Recipe by ondine cookpad.japan -
Homemade Wonton Wrappers Homemade Wonton Wrappers
Crispy and thin wrappers. This recipe is perfect for fried or boiled wonton and shumai (chinese dumpling). Wheat starch (it is NOT the same as wheat flour) here will give the wrapper some translucence/transparent look and also produce a very white wrapper. You will find it at an Asian grocery. You can subtitute all purpose flour for wheat starch. Of course the result will be different. Pawon Indo Bule
