Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 3/4 cups Boiling water
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
  • 1 cup Napa cabbage, finely diced
  • 2 scallions Green onions, minced
  • 1 cup Shrimp, peeled and chopped (or substitute with crab or more vegetables)
  • 1/2 pound Ground pork
  • 2 tablespoons Tapioca starch (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons Water (optional if using tapioca starch)
  • 1 tablespoon Light soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon White pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Chinkiang vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
  • 1 clove Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar
  • 1 scallion Green onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup Water
  • 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting)
  • 1 pinch Salt (for cooking water)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: In a bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt together. Gradually pour in the boiling water while mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough until smooth, then cover and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Make the Filling: In a separate bowl, combine minced garlic, ginger, napa cabbage, green onions, shrimp, ground pork, tapioca starch (if using), water (if using tapioca starch), light soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, sea salt, and white pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
  3. Roll Out the Wrappers: On a floured surface, divide the rested dough into smaller portions. Roll each portion into thin circles, about 3-4 inches in diameter, to create the dumpling wrappers.
  4. Assemble the Dumplings: Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each wrapper. Gently fold the wrapper over the filling and pinch the edges together to seal, ensuring no filling escapes.
  5. Cook the Dumplings: In a large pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Arrange the dumplings in the pan in a single layer. Add water to the pan and cover, allowing them to steam until the water evaporates and the bottoms are crispy, about 8-10 minutes.
  6. Make the Dipping Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Chinkiang vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, ginger, and sugar until smooth. Garnish with thinly sliced green onions for an added burst of flavor.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the crispy skirt dumplings hot, paired with the zesty dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.
