Chinese hack: add in a Tbsp or two of corn starch to your filling. It gives a smoother consistency for the liquid in the filling once it’s cooked 👌🏻 Nice recipe Joshua!
The cornstarch thing was something I learned from a bengali girl back in college. It's a game changer. But I actually substitute about 1/4 of the flour for corn starch. And I divide the water into 2/3 hot water, mix that to combine, then the other third I do at room temperature.
accually thats true.. I have the best home made filling and wrappers and yah.. They rock.. Josh has it down.. I don't ad any veg.. I do it my way!! do not buy wrappers from the store. They suck. Thanks Josh love the 3:34 yep I have a roller and make your pasta PEOPLE! Making pasta at home for years and never buy that store bought CRAP, Garbage.
The only way to receive true happiness is to be born again. Jesus loves you and is coming back to earth soon. This year is giving signs of end times. You need to repent. Please believe and spread the word to your friends, family etc so they can be saved. I'm doing this because I care about where you're gonna end up on judgement day Jesus loves you.
The first video of his I watched was the tonkotsu ramen one, and I knew immediately that this channel was going to get huge. Great production value, delicious looking food, funny and informative commentary. This guy's got it all.
Highly recommend adding an egg, oyster sauce and a bit of salt is it’s lacking in flavour to your filling. Also for better results you can cut your dough into little pieces, use your palm to slightly round it out and flatten it. Then grabbing the side of the circle, with a rolling pin, start flattening the dough into a circle whilst spinning the dough round? Not sure how to describe it but roll it so that the outside of the circle is thinner than the inside. This way your dumpling is less likely to break etc. Still has to be quite thin but this is how my family have always done it and it might help.
He did say to add salt to the filling, in addition to salting the cabbage. And I think the thicker middle is more important for soup dumplings than normal dumplings.

@@purebliss2669 No thank you. Whether or not jesus and god are real is unknown but I’ve read the bible and decided that path just isn’t for me. I won’t stop you from your religious beliefs but it’s just not for me. Have a good day.
As a Chinese, have to say, rolling out with rolling pin is the right way, and, very important, don't cut the sheet, just roll it into round shape, that's how we do it. Shaping skill got way better than last time!!! Keep up the good work, love watching your vids!!!
@@dhg5766 Well I lived in 南京 which is the South Eastern part of China and my grandparents make their dumpling with rolling pins. And you can really taste the difference between a homemade, rolled out dumpling, and a commercially made, cut out dumpling. The rolled out skin tastes much more tender and chewy. I'm just saying this so that if anyone is really interested in making authentic Chinese dumplings, they can try the rolling pin method.
I'm Polish! So my family has been making home made dumplings for generations for special occasions such as Christmas! It has become one of my favorite foods because I dont have it that often. I love this video so much because it brings back so many memories of making dumplings with my mom and grandmother!
I still want to see you do a collab with Bon Appetit or Binging with Babish! **this comment was made over a year ago. It is well known that since this comment was made they have done a collab.**
thank you so much for giving the measurements in grams whenever it makes sense!!! it makes my life much easier. I *love* making dumplings & dumpling wrappers. if my freezer was less full, I'd make some now. instead, I'm saving this for when I have some dumpling space (which won't take too long). one small suggestion (really, a tiny one): have you tried adding a leeeetle bit of water to the dumpling filling, as well as mixing it in one direction to align the proteins and make it into a paste? I highly recommend watching Adam Liaw's dumpling school series, but especially the video for jiaozi dumplings, for an explanation of why those things are almost always done when making dumplings. okay!!! that said, these look gorgeous and you're an amazing cook. I've been reading your blog posts since you were 17 and doing the paleo thing, and of course this youtube channel since you you announced it. I'm *thrilled* to see it getting bigger! you are a great chef, my fellow Austinite. I'll definitely be trying this recipe, especially the recommendation to use my pasta roller. happy dumplings!
Even though it’s not traditional, I love the pasta roller and cookie cutter hack. It’s already a time consuming meal, this speeds it up a bit! Also this is such a great social cooking experience. My husband and I made dumplings once for our wedding anniversary. Super fun.
Adore your videos! It proves there is NO age that stops one from learning. I am a 50 something closer to 60 and constantly learn something. Only over the last few years have I enjoyed the kitchen. Even though I have had a traumatic knee injury that’s prevented me from really being able to stand up for periods of time I am still in the game and these videos keep me in the kitchen working at it THANK YOU for accidentally helping me and giving me the inspiration. warmest wishes and good karma sent your way from me TracyAnn to you and yours
@@JoshuaWeissman Yo, I bet that door got WRECKED just from bumping into your glasses. But you're such a nice guy, you acted like the door got the best of you. Handled like a true hero.
DooooooooD! I just made this recipe, while incorporating some techniques from my Chinese mother in law, and my husband who grew up eating these dumplings his entire life APPROVES! He said they were delicious! Thank you for helping me flex and impress my Chinese husband and relatives 💪😎👍 Oh...and after doing this recipe twice, I have found that one cup of boiling water for the dough works better than 3/4 cup.
Usually dumplings are made in mass quantities. Making 5 dumplings takes about the same amount of time as 100, since the biggest time cost is making the dough and filling. There are several ways to handle this, you can make a bunch of dumplings ahead of time, say for the week, and simply steam them when you'd like them. You can also freeze homemade dumplings and reheat them by steaming without even defrosting.
Reminds me of this my meme my chef posted where the front of house team is a group of handsome/beautiful people in formal wear, while the BOH is a horde of pirates. Seriously, we yell, swear, and physically fight like pirates during service.
Josh, thank you so much. I made your recipe moreless and it came out amazing. Luckily I do have that italian roller and it works perfect. The dough is tear-free and makes a lot of dumpling. I only used garlic, an onion, 50g of pork and mostly was cabbage. I seasoned it with lemon, ready pork seasoning and salt. I didn't fold the way it's supposed to be folded because it didn't come out right the first time and I simply gave up. I do not have a bamboo steamer instead I poared water in 1/4 of a small pan and put a spaghetti runner on top and placed the dumpling on it left it covered with a pan lid for 10mins. The results were amazing. Thanks
This is the best looking dumpling made by non Chinese chef I have ever seen. Even most of Chinese people can not make this pretty. Judging by your Chinese cooking, I have confidence in all of your recipes. One of the best cooking channel.
I just made these! I've done dumblings once before and then i used store-bought wrappers, and honestly, making your own dough is easier and MUCH easier to fold! It took me like 2,5 hours, since i was doing these on my own. I had some leftover filling since i dont own pastaroller, and i didn't get the dough to be as thin with rolling pin. Totally worth it, they we're delicious
Really loving the channel! I think a lot of people would love seeing some quick weekday meals (maybe a weekly video idea?) that you like to make if you do that sort of thing. Thanks!
As a Chinese I'm very impressed, especially how you manage get the dumpling skin from pasta machine, hot water for making the dough is also very important for steaming dumplings. Very well done!
Nice video! Tips to get a juicier filling: Before adding anything salty, add a neutral oil to the filling enough to cover all the cabbage, but not so much that it's dripping. For the amount you had, maybe 1/2 dl would be enough. Mix the filling, and then add the salt and soy sauce, and then mix just enough that the salt is distributed. This way, you don't need to discard all the cabbage liquid (which is full of flavor) as it won't get drawn out as much from the salt. Every now and then, you would need to stir the filling again to incorporate the little liquid that gets drawn out, but this will be juicier than any dumpling you've had before. Protip from my mom ;)
A tip for the dumpling wrappers; I would hand roll them out (not into a sheet, but I do acknowledge the ease of that method) individually, and leave the center of the wrapper a little thicker than the edges. That way, when you finish pleating the dumplings it'll have a similar thickness and be less prone to burst from the bottom (although this mainly in reference to boiling the dumplings instead of steaming). Otherwise, great video!
I've made dumplings a handful of times and every time I make them I swear I'll never make them again because I always fuck up the rolling of the wrappers and/or they stick together before I finish them and I could never make them look pretty with the folding but after watching this I decided to give it another go and I didn't hate it! Dumplings turned out great and the process wasn't tedious like I usually find it. Cookie cutter technique is a good one and your showing of the folding technique helped a ton. Never been able to get them to look pretty like you see experienced cooks do but I did this time!
Glad to see the wrapper made from scratch so well. I live in the eastern part of India where dumplings are a very common street food (referred to as momos). I usually do the shaping without any special equipment. I make a ring out of the whole dough and cut out approx 9 gms of dough balls and then roll them out. This surely saves time.
To make it easier, instead of flour scalding (adding boiling water to flour and mixing), you can use water roux (boil flour separately, and add it to the rest of the flour, subtracting the water and flour used to make it), or a hybrid (add the flour to boiling water and mixing with some tool, like a fork, then, after the mixture became warm to the touch but not hot, add it to the rest of the flour and water). This way, you can better control the hydration rate of the dough, by having more or less water roux (tangzhong) in the mixture, instead of changing only the temperature and amount of hot water used to make scalded flour (yudane). *Note:* Flour scalding originates from europe, from where it made it to Japan, where it took the name yudane, then it evolved/changed in Japan into tangzhong, where it evolved in parallel to the european water roux, but both tangzhong and yudane becoming a lot more popular in Eastern Asia than flour scalding and water roux became in Europe. Also, you can use rice flour, or mashed boiled rice (once you take into account the water absorbed by the rice), to make the dough even less sticky, or to allow higher hydration rates for the dough, than without it replacing some of the wheat flour (and water, if you used boiled rice).
Just made these yesterday along with the dipping sauce and chili oil from another video. Life changing is correct. DELICIOUS and worth the effort. Will be doing again.
Half of the time I'm not even watching your vids for your recipes....but your sweet camera tricks, witty humour, rad music sense, b rolls and overall production style..no wonder the views on UA-cam goin bananas!!
I think my boyfriend and I talk about you and your videos like everyday because we love them so much. How on earth do you have time to produce so much content while ALSO being a restaurant professional?!
Very well said Joshua! There’s nothing better in the world thank sitting down to enjoy a bowl of steaming hot dumplings. You’re awesome for sharing foods from different cultures. Bravo!!
Woke up to find a notification about this dumpling from scratch now I'm up to my elbows in dough! Nothing beats good inspiration (and perspiration) to start your day! Stay awesome! Tip: if kneading rock-hard dough isn't providing enough workout, you may find it a bit more rewarding to mince your pork instead of passing it through the grinder. The difference is astronomical!
You must freeze them if you aren't eating them same day. If you bust your ass and bang out 2 or 3 dozen, all will be lost the longer they sit in the fridge. The dough and the filling start working on each other and the dough gets too wet and sticky to handle and is difficult to maintain its shape and texture......it will become a sloppy wet noodle over a gritty coarse filling. Just Freeze them if you're not going to consume them. Park them individually on a plastic covered tray and cover with 2 layers of plastic ( I usually just upcycle my grocery bags and stuff my tray into 2 of those) then freeze. They won't stick together,and you can toss them in a Ziploc, and have as many as you want,When you want. Shelf life 3-6 months, but mine never last long.....eaten up Every Time!
It's really cool to watch these older videos after the newer ones, and seeing how much your production skills have grown and how much more comfortable on camera you are lol. Oh yeah! I ordered your book last week 😂
@@berfin5865 lol nope I'm a grown up man. ANd I've seen too many of Joshua's videos too know he's clumsy sometimes, so it was just a matter of time before it happened ^^
I have eaten a lot of both steamed and fried dumplings here in the states and in Korea, and I cook fried dumplings freqently. I bought a steamer basket with my latest Wok in order to get free shipping, so searched around for steamed dumpling recipes and picked this one, mainly because I trust Joshua's recipes and techniques. I was sure that there was no way these could be better than fried dumplings. Boy was I wrong! Definitely a dumpling "moment"! I did not care for the dipping sauce, but then I was eating mine with Joshua's chili oil recipe that I made last week and that was so much better. Only thing I did differently was to use the Kitchen Aid to knead the dough. Just an outstanding recipe! Highly recommended!
made these today, took way more water than the recipe said. Ended up requiring almost a cup and a half, not sure what happened. The dough got smooth after that and the dumplings came out great! thanks for the recipe!
I did one filling at a time, and watching this video has shown me I can add all the filling at once. Why didn’t I think of that!? Thank you, you’ve make me so much faster at making dumplings
hey joshua, do you have a vegetable version of this? A lot of people in my family are vegetarian or peskaterian edit: thanks for the fillings, they are really good
We have this version in China that’s super popular. Use Chinese chives, boiled glass noodle and scrambled eggs as your filling. It’s better than meat fillings!
hey joshua, love your vids! a little tip for next time - when you're making the wrappers, it's still best to do them by hand with a tapered rolling pin, so that the outside is thinner than the inside of the circle so that the top isn't twice the thickness of the rest of the dumpling when you pleat it over. Keep up the good work.
Thank's for this. With this guide I've successfully made my own Chinese dumplings. And I recommend to put in the diping sauce half of chilli pepper 👍 it is great with that
@@JohnDoe-xo2yf :))) people have this right to think this way about Iranian. Cuase in both our culture and language its ok to say for example i luv you bro, if you have a close male friend it doesnt matter if you kiss him, hug him, or give him compliment about the way they dress up, perfume they use or haircut. In general in Iran we dont consider people to be gay, unless they claim that. we act the same way in our friendship between women and men. the only border line is, french kiss and sex ;)
I just made this for my family (used beef instead or pork cause that’s all we had) and BRUUUHHH it was goooooood!! Thanks for the recipe, I’m gonna be doing this often for sure
I literally just ate a bunch of dumplings at a restaurant the other day and was thinking I wanted to learn how to make them. Perfect timing I'm definitely going to try these and amazing video as always!
I made these tonight and they were exceptional. The only things I changed were using store bought wrappers because I’m lazy, and using beef instead of pork. I used a 27% fat beef and they were delicious!
I’m so happy to see that you’re still posting!!! Omg!!!! Joshua I love your videos, I’m a cook myself and I fucking love everything you do and post here!!! Thank you so much for all you do :)
You are the one we all need, but don't know yet. You will be very successful. Thank you so much for your videos. Aesthetically pleasing, humerus, nice voice and most importantly of all those precise and perfect cooking skills and knowledge. Love it. Keep it up.
Chinese hack: add in a Tbsp or two of corn starch to your filling. It gives a smoother consistency for the liquid in the filling once it’s cooked 👌🏻
Nice recipe Joshua!
can the dough be made with room temperature water?
@@manuela. it's better to use warm or slightly hot water, that way the dough is way easier to knead
The cornstarch thing was something I learned from a bengali girl back in college. It's a game changer. But I actually substitute about 1/4 of the flour for corn starch.
And I divide the water into 2/3 hot water, mix that to combine, then the other third I do at room temperature.
I also recommend using Chinese shepherd's purse instead of napa, but Napa is still good

Michelle Bowen it’s more just general advice from things I’ve picked up over the years so take it how you will.
That’s how my family makes dumplings too. Dumplings comes out fat and round. My task was to flatten out the dough pieces for my mom to roll.

To make it easier, instead of flour scalding (adding boiling water to flour and mixing), you can use water roux (boil flour separately, and add it to the rest of the flour, subtracting the water and flour used to make it), or a hybrid (add the flour to boiling water and mixing with some tool, like a fork, then, after the mixture became warm to the touch but not hot, add it to the rest of the flour and water). This way, you can better control the hydration rate of the dough, by having more or less water roux (tangzhong) in the mixture, instead of changing only the temperature and amount of hot water used to make scalded flour (yudane). *Note:* Flour scalding originates from europe, from where it made it to Japan, where it took the name yudane, then it evolved/changed in Japan into tangzhong, where it evolved in parallel to the european water roux, but both tangzhong and yudane becoming a lot more popular in Eastern Asia than flour scalding and water roux became in Europe.
Also, you can use rice flour, or mashed boiled rice (once you take into account the water absorbed by the rice), to make the dough even less sticky, or to allow higher hydration rates for the dough, than without it replacing some of the wheat flour (and water, if you used boiled rice).
Just made these yesterday along with the dipping sauce and chili oil from another video. Life changing is correct. DELICIOUS and worth the effort. Will be doing again.
Freaking love your Chanel , awsome stuff ,clear ,concise and recepi ni gramms . Cheers from France
Half of the time I'm not even watching your vids for your recipes....but your sweet camera tricks, witty humour, rad music sense, b rolls and overall production style..no wonder the views on UA-cam goin bananas!!
quality content as usual, now my dumplings can survive with this technique
I tried making them, took me around 4 hours, but it was fun and they tasted so goooood🥰the dough ball was too cute, I couldn’t stop playing with it
I love those lofi hip hop beats on the b roll
I think my boyfriend and I talk about you and your videos like everyday because we love them so much. How on earth do you have time to produce so much content while ALSO being a restaurant professional?!
With all of that dough, how many dumplings did you do?? I loved your video, thank you!!!
This dude seemed to come out of nowhere and now I watch at least 1 video a day. U r my spirit animal
Very well said Joshua! There’s nothing better in the world thank sitting down to enjoy a bowl of steaming hot dumplings. You’re awesome for sharing foods from different cultures. Bravo!!
Joshua: The combination of totally different cultures... A pasta sheeter
Me with my tortilla press: 😐😆
Woke up to find a notification about this dumpling from scratch now I'm up to my elbows in dough! Nothing beats good inspiration (and perspiration) to start your day! Stay awesome!
Tip: if kneading rock-hard dough isn't providing enough workout, you may find it a bit more rewarding to mince your pork instead of passing it through the grinder. The difference is astronomical!
This is awesome, you make a lot of seemingly complicated recipes super accessible!
Question: Can you freeze the dumplings for another time later?
You must freeze them if you aren't eating them same day. If you bust your ass and bang out 2 or 3 dozen, all will be lost the longer they sit in the fridge. The dough and the filling start working on each other and the dough gets too wet and sticky to handle and is difficult to maintain its shape and texture......it will become a sloppy wet noodle over a gritty coarse filling.
Just Freeze them if you're not going to consume them. Park them individually on a plastic covered tray and cover with 2 layers of plastic ( I usually just upcycle my grocery bags and stuff my tray into 2 of those) then freeze.
They won't stick together,and you can toss them in a Ziploc, and have as many as you want,When you want. Shelf life 3-6 months, but mine never last long.....eaten up Every Time!
It's really cool to watch these older videos after the newer ones, and seeing how much your production skills have grown and how much more comfortable on camera you are lol. Oh yeah! I ordered your book last week 😂
I agree. Though I like this more humble vibe he has in these old videos more. Nowadays hes a tad braggy and very meme-y.
"You want to hear something sad?"
Me: No. **Exit video**
Ugh, I just love your channel. Could binge watch it for dayssss.
Loved the video, what about Xiaolongbao soup dumplings next!? 😋
my teacher brought these with the chili oil to a class party in my high school Mandarin class, so amazing.
Yes yes yes now I want to make steamed gyōza again!
THIS PERSON IS A LEGEND for saying the amounts in metric system.
I give you a like for that smile on dough. It made me smile ;)
Followed this recipe exactly and now it's my girlfriends favorite treat. Even made my own dough and wrappers great first try. Love it.
I love your humor!
2:07 "Let it rest"
**Puts a towel over the dough like a blanket**
I had a eureka moment several years ago about using my pasta maker to roll out my dough for dumplings, and it works beautifully.
At 7:40 I was thinking "One day he will smack his nose with that door".
Then 8:53 happened :)
Wow you must be a mom
@@berfin5865 lol nope I'm a grown up man. ANd I've seen too many of Joshua's videos too know he's clumsy sometimes, so it was just a matter of time before it happened ^^
I love the pasta sheet maker trick
Yes, I think I’ve fallen in love with you 😂
I have eaten a lot of both steamed and fried dumplings here in the states and in Korea, and I cook fried dumplings freqently. I bought a steamer basket with my latest Wok in order to get free shipping, so searched around for steamed dumpling recipes and picked this one, mainly because I trust Joshua's recipes and techniques. I was sure that there was no way these could be better than fried dumplings. Boy was I wrong! Definitely a dumpling "moment"! I did not care for the dipping sauce, but then I was eating mine with Joshua's chili oil recipe that I made last week and that was so much better. Only thing I did differently was to use the Kitchen Aid to knead the dough. Just an outstanding recipe! Highly recommended!
"I'm not talking about the take out gyoza with the dipping sauce"
Proceeds to make gyoza with a dipping sauce. 🤔😂
made these today, took way more water than the recipe said. Ended up requiring almost a cup and a half, not sure what happened. The dough got smooth after that and the dumplings came out great! thanks for the recipe!
I think xiao long bao are more life changing :D
Thank you for slowing down the demo on pleading the dumpling. I needed that!
You should make sourdough bread next
Devin Peterson 🤔🤔🥖🥖🥖
I love the fact that he gives the grams💜 That said, I really like his personality & style of video, easy to follow along!
I just realized we were inside the cupboard all this time 0:00
Took me a while, too
I did one filling at a time, and watching this video has shown me I can add all the filling at once. Why didn’t I think of that!? Thank you, you’ve make me so much faster at making dumplings
hey joshua, do you have a vegetable version of this? A lot of people in my family are vegetarian or peskaterian edit: thanks for the fillings, they are really good
Try this video. ua-cam.com/video/4u7bBMSIhQ0/v-deo.html
I think chopped up mushrooms would be good!!
@@mynameisfriday118 thanks dude
@@ginacovarrubias8027 thanks for the suggestion
We have this version in China that’s super popular. Use Chinese chives, boiled glass noodle and scrambled eggs as your filling. It’s better than meat fillings!
LITERALLY been watching for 72 hrs.......I will never get enough Papa
The only thing I'm questioning is: WhEre dO YOu GeT THiS ePic mUsiC FrOM?

hey joshua, love your vids! a little tip for next time - when you're making the wrappers, it's still best to do them by hand with a tapered rolling pin, so that the outside is thinner than the inside of the circle so that the top isn't twice the thickness of the rest of the dumpling when you pleat it over. Keep up the good work.
Joshua : u can make a 400 layer pastry trust me it's easy
ME : BEST BELIEVE I CAN
Not
Thank's for this. With this guide I've successfully made my own Chinese dumplings. And I recommend to put in the diping sauce half of chilli pepper 👍 it is great with that
dude do not change your hairstyle and beard, right now u r perfect. p.s: I'm not gay ;)
Why are u gay?
@@JohnDoe-xo2yf :))) people have this right to think this way about Iranian. Cuase in both our culture and language its ok to say for example i luv you bro, if you have a close male friend it doesnt matter if you kiss him, hug him, or give him compliment about the way they dress up, perfume they use or haircut. In general in Iran we dont consider people to be gay, unless they claim that. we act the same way in our friendship between women and men. the only border line is, french kiss and sex ;)
@@MrKhoshkhial that was a reference to a meme, an innocent joke, buddy ua-cam.com/video/G2W41pvvZs0/v-deo.html

“You wont get it perfect the first time.”

I added some five spice and cinnamon to the filling and it tasted great too. Thanks for the recipe

Maria Demoya Ok , creepy but ok.

@@willgraves5848 what the fuck are you ok ?
I just made this for my family (used beef instead or pork cause that’s all we had) and BRUUUHHH it was goooooood!! Thanks for the recipe, I’m gonna be doing this often for sure
I literally just ate a bunch of dumplings at a restaurant the other day and was thinking I wanted to learn how to make them. Perfect timing I'm definitely going to try these and amazing video as always!
I made these tonight and they were exceptional. The only things I changed were using store bought wrappers because I’m lazy, and using beef instead of pork. I used a 27% fat beef and they were delicious!
I have been searching recipes all week. It’s like you read my mind! Definitely trying this.
I’m so happy to see that you’re still posting!!! Omg!!!! Joshua I love your videos, I’m a cook myself and I fucking love everything you do and post here!!! Thank you so much for all you do :)
