Don't be intimidated by making soup dumplings at home. This recipe gives you a step-by-step guide on how to do it.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 c. chicken bone broth
  • 2 tbsp. Chinese light soy sauce 
  • 1 (2") piece ginger, sliced 
  • 5 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 1 (1/4-oz.) package gelatin 
  • 4 c. (480 g.) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1 1/4 c. hot water
  • 1 lb. ground pork 
  • 3 scallions, sliced 
  • 2 tbsp. Chinese light soy sauce 
  • 2 tbsp. Shaoxing rice wine  
  • 2 tsp. grated garlic
  • 1 tsp. finely grated peeled ginger 
  • 1/4 tsp. ground white pepper 
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt (optional)
  • 1 head of Napa cabbage
  • Chinese black vinegar and chili oil, for dipping 

Directions

  1. 1

    In a medium pot over medium-high heat, bring broth, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced to about 1 cup, about 10 minutes. Discard ginger and garlic. Add gelatin and whisk to incorporate.

  2. 2

    In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, beat flour and water on medium speed until dough is soft and smooth in texture, 5 to 10 minutes (you can also do this by hand). Wrap dough with a thin damp cloth or plastic wrap and let rest at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour at room temperature.

  3. 3

    In a food processor, pulse pork, scallions, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, ginger, pepper, and salt, if using, until mostly smooth.
