Time 3h10m

Number Of Ingredients 19

2.5 to 3 lbs (1.2 kg) chicken backs and necks
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 " (2.5 cm) ginger (, sliced)
4 green onions (, chopped into 3" (8 cm) pieces)
120 g all purpose flour ((2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons))
Pinch of salt
35 g hot water ((2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon))
25 to 30 g cold water ((about 2 tablespoons))
1 tablespoon grated ginger
8 oz (220 g) fatty ground pork ((*Footnote 1))
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
4 teaspoons Shaoxing wine ((or dry sherry))
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
4 green onions (, finely minced)
Chinkiang vinegar
ginger (, very thinly sliced)
small Chinese rolling pin ((*Footnote 2))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Prepare a medium-sized (about 4 qt) dutch oven with a lid or a roasting pan that can be securely sealed with a lid or foil. Add the oil to the pan and place it in the oven to heat up, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Once heated, carefully transfer the pan onto a trivet. Place the chicken back in the pan and spread the ginger and green onions on top of it. Add 1/4 cup water. Cover with the lid and return to the oven. Roast until you've collected a good amount of chicken broth in the bottom of the pot, 50 minutes or so.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Use a pair of tongs to remove and discard the chicken backs.
  • Lay a mesh strainer over a heat-proof bowl. Strain the chicken broth. Once cooled completely, transfer the chicken broth into a sealed container and refrigerate overnight.
  • Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. Slowly drizzle the hot water over the flour while stirring with a pair of chopsticks (or a fork). Mix until the hot water is fully absorbed.
  • Then slowly drizzle 25 g of cold water over the dry flour while mixing. Once the water is fully absorbed and the flour turns into dough flakes, start pressing with your hand to gather the dough together while mixing in as much dry flour as you can. If the dough is almost formed but there's still dry flour left in the bowl, add the remaining 5 g water and keep kneading. Once done, it should form a semi-soft dough and no flour is left in the bowl.
  • Transfer the dough onto a clean working surface and knead for 15 to 20 minutes, until the surface is smooth and the texture elastic. The dough should feel soft to the touch and not stick to your hands.
  • Wrap the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for 45 minutes.
  • Storage: You can store the dough at this point if you decide to assemble the dumpling later. The dough can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge overnight.
  • Add the grated ginger into a small bowl and pour in 1/4 cup hot water. Let sit while preparing other ingredients.
  • The chicken broth you made the day before should have become congealed with a layer of fat on top. Scrape off the fat and reserve it in a small bowl.
  • Slice the chicken gelatin into thin strips, then further into small cubes. Coarsely mince it into bits.
  • Measure the chopped gelatin. If it's less than 4.4 oz (120 g), add a few spoonfuls of the chicken fat until it reaches 4.4 oz (120 g). You can discard or reserve the remaining chicken fat for future use. Store the gelatin in the fridge while not using.
  • Add the ground pork into a medium-sized bowl. Add the ginger water, light soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, salt, sugar and white pepper. Beat with a spatula until the liquid is fully absorbed and the filling becomes sticky and bouncy, 5 minutes or so.
  • Add the chopped chicken jelly and green onions. Mix until incorporated.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and store in the fridge until ready to use. The filling can be stored in the fridge for a couple of hours, but I do not recommend storing it for too much longer, because the liquid will start to seep out.
  • Line a steamer rack with napa cabbage leaves or prepare some square parchment paper for steaming the dumplings.
  • Place the rested dough onto a clean working surface. Roll it into a long log, about 1" (2.5 cm) in diameter. Cut the log in half, wrap one half with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge while working on the other half.
  • Roll out the log a bit more. Divide it into two equal pieces, then further cut them into 10 pieces in total. Cover them with a few layers of wet paper towels to prevent drying out.
  • Work on the buns one at a time. Shape one piece of dough with your fingers so it is a round piece, then flatten it with your palm. Use a small rolling pin to roll out the wrapper, spinning the dough after rolling a few times. Roll until the wrapper is very thin, about 4 1/2" (11 cm) in diameter. (*Footnote 3)
  • Place 22 g (about 1 tablespoon) of the filling onto the center of the wrapper. Fold and pinch the edges of the wrapper to create pleats (see the wrapping process in action in my cooking video). When you are about to seal the pleats, leave a small opening on the top of the dumplings (very important - *Footnote 4).
  • Place the wrapped dumplings onto the napa cabbage or parchment paper. Cover loosely with a few layers of wet paper towels to prevent drying out. Work on the rest of the dumplings until you can fill the steamer rack - you should leave at least 2" (5 cm) between the dumplings.
  • Prepare the dipping sauce by adding 1 tablespoon of Chinese vinegar and a few strips of ginger to each small sauce plate.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover the steamer rack with a lid and place it over the boiling water. Steam over medium-high heat for 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the number of dumplings you cook at a time.
  • Once done cooking, serve immediately with the dipping sauce.
  • To eat the soup dumplings, hold a pair of chopsticks in one hand and a big spoon in the other. Carefully use the chopsticks to pick up the soup dumpling and place it into the spoon. If you're skillful with chopsticks, you can also dip the dumpling into the dipping sauce. Otherwise, drizzle a tiny amount of sauce over the dumpling. Have a small bite of the dumplings to let the steam out and allow the soup to pool in the spoon. If you don't mind hot food (it's very hot!), you can also let the soup stay in the dumpling and eat it all in one bite (I do not recommend this method if you're not familiar with soup dumplings).

CRAB "SOUP DUMPLINGS" (DIM SUM)



Crab

Not soup with dumplings in it, but dumplings with soup in them. This is a famous kind of steamed dumpling for dim sum. You bite a little hole in the dumpling, then carefully sip the scalding hot broth out of it, then dip the rest of the dumpling in a dip and eat. It's amazing how they get it inside-out like that. I have just learned, from a cookbook called "Dim Sum and Other Chinese Street Food" by Mai Leung, that the secret is to gel some broth with agar-agar and seal the solid broth inside the dumplings. When the dumplings are heated, the broth liquifies again, so you get dumplings full of soup. I haven't tried this recipe yet, but I don't usually make my own dim sum, so I thought I'd go ahead and post it for those who do. She says you can only make these a few hours in advance, and if you do, you should refrigerate them before steaming.

Time P1DT2h50m

Yield 24 dumplings

Number Of Ingredients 33

1 lb pork necks
½ lb pork skin, or hocks
4 cups water, plus more as needed
4 slices fresh ginger
2 scallions
1 tablespoon rice wine
3 black peppercorns
½ teaspoon kosher salt
3 whole star anises
1 small cinnamon stick
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon sichuan peppercorns
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 ½ cups canola oil
¾ cup Sichuan red chile flakes
2 teaspoons kosher salt
½ lb ground pork
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
1 scallion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon rice wine
½ teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons water, plus more as needed
¼ cup crab paste, or surimi
napa cabbage, for steaming
kosher salt, to taste
freshly ground white pepper, to taste
1 cup all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
½ teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons warm water
black vinegar
fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Make the pork broth: Add the pork necks and skin to a large pot. Cover with water by 2 inches and bring to a boil over high heat. Drain and rinse the necks and skin under cold water, then return to the pot.
  • Add 4 cups of water, the ginger, scallions, rice wine, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 hours, skimming the surface occasionally.
  • Strain the broth through a fine-mesh strainer into a shallow baking dish and stir in the salt. Let cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator overnight, until set.
  • Make the chile oil: In a small pot, combine the star anise, cinnamon stick, bay leaves, Sichuan peppercorns, garlic, and canola oil. Cook over low heat until small bubbles appear around the garlic cloves, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the Sichuan red chile flakes and salt to a heat-proof jar. Strain the oil into the jar and stir to combine. Let cool, then cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Make the filling: Add the ground pork, ginger, scallions, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine, sugar, and water to a medium bowl and mix until evenly combined. If the filling feels too thick, add another tablespoon of water and stir until light and airy. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Make the dough: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt, and warm water. Stir to combine, then turn out onto a floured surface. Knead for about 20 minutes, dusting with more flour as needed, until very soft and smooth. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Divide the dough in half and cover one portion with a damp towel. Roll the remaining portion into a 1-inch wide log, then cut into 12 pieces, rotating the log as you cut. Cover 11 pieces with the damp towel. Roll the remaining piece into a ball, then flatten with your palm. Dust with flour as needed to prevent sticking. Use a small rolling pin to roll the dough into a 3-inch round, then use the rolling pin to roll the edges thinner than the center, until the diameter of the wrapper is 3½-4 inches. Cover with the towel and repeat with the remaining dough.
  • Fill the dumplings: Remove the chilled pork broth from the refrigerator and cut into ½-inch cubes.
  • Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the filling on the center of a dumpling wrapper. Add about ½ teaspoon crab paste and 1 pork broth cube. Hold the dumpling in the palm of one hand and use the other to pleat the edges of the wrapper around the filling, pinching and twisting at the top to seal. Set on a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.
  • Fill a large pot ⅓ of the way with water to a boil over high heat. Place a bamboo steamer basket on top and line with Napa cabbage leaves. Place the dumplings on top of the cabbage, leaving space for them to expand. Stack a second steamer basket on top and repeat to add more dumplings. Cover and steam for about 8 minutes, until the wrappers are slightly translucent and the filling is cooked through.
  • Serve the dumplings with the chile oil, black vinegar, and ginger.
  • Enjoy!
