Cooking StepsHow to cook Pork and Celery Dumplings step by step
-
Step 1Wash the celery and Napa cabbage, then drain thoroughly.
-
Step 2Mince the vegetables, add salt, and squeeze out excess moisture — but not too dry, or you’ll lose that fresh vegetable aroma.
-
Step 3Add oyster sauce, light soy sauce, ginger powder, and minced scallions to the ground pork. Mix in the minced celery and cabbage, add sesame oil, and stir well. Season with five-spice powder, salt, and cooking oil, then stir to combine evenly.
-
Step 4Make the dumpling wrappers using high-gluten flour for the best texture. Roll out the wrappers and fill them.
-
Step 5Shape the dumplings and line them up on a floured surface.
-
Step 6Bring a pot of water to a boil, drop in the dumplings. When the water returns to a boil, start timing — 3 minutes is the perfect doneness for my taste.
-
Step 7Serve with vinegar for dipping — and don’t forget the garlic!
