Ingredients
- 1 quart chicken stock
- 1 onion, optional
- 3-4 cloves garlic, smashed, optional
- 3-4 scallions, sliced and divided
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- Bowery Mustard Frills, 1.5 oz
- 1 lb. ground pork
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha or hot sauce
- Few cracks of white pepper
- 1 package circle dumpling wrappers
Preparation
- Add chicken stock to a saucepan (using more water if needed to fill and boil dumplings) and bring to a simmer. If you want to add more depth to your stock, halve onion keeping the skin on and add along with smashed garlic cloves and ½ of the scallions. Allow the stock to simmer while you prepare the dumplings.
- Heat olive oil over medium heat in a small skillet and add about ¾ of the Mustard Frills and sauté until wilted down. Season with a pinch of salt and remove from heat, cooling slightly before finely chopping.
- In a medium bowl combine sautéed and chopped Mustard Frills, remaining scallions, ground pork, salt, soy sauce, sesame oil, hot sauce and white pepper. Combine well and set aside.
- Fill a small bowl with cold water. Take one dumpling wrapper and place in the palm of your hand. Using a small spoon, take about 1 tablespoon of the pork and Mustard Frills mixture and add to the center of the dumpling wrapper. Using your finger wet the circumference of the circle with water. Seal into a half moon and then crinkle 4 to 5 times to create traditional dumpling texture. If this seems too complex, a simple half moon will be sufficient in keeping filling in while cooking.
- Fill desired amount of dumplings. Dumplings can be made and frozen or each element frozen individually if only making for a smaller crowd. Bring stock to a boil and add dumpling, cooking for 4-5 minutes until they float to the top and the filling is firm and cooked through.
- Plate as a soup or individual bites and top with remaining Mustard Frills.
