Boiled Garlic Chive Dumplings In Cold Water Dough Recipe
- 2 bn garlic chives finely minced (regular chives can be substituted) 2 pkgs. mung bean noodles - 1 1/3 ounce ea) soaked soft, and cut into 1/2" strands
- 1 c. re-hydrated black mushrooms stemmed, and finely diced
- 2 Tbsp. chopped ginger
- 1 1/2 Tbsp. chopped garlic
- 2 Tbsp. thin soy sauce
- 3 Tbsp. sesame oil
- 1/2 Tbsp. salt
- 1 x egg
- 4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 c. cool water
- 1/3 c. thin soy sauce
- 1/3 c. rice wine vinegar
- 1/3 c. sliced scallions
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 Tbsp. sambal
- In a large bowl thoroughly mix all filling ingredients together by hand.
- Cook a tester to check for seasoning.
- For the Cool Water Dough: In a stainless steel bowl, mix flour and salt.
- Slowly add in cool water to flour in 1/4-c. increments.
- Mix with chopsticks till a ball is formed.
- On a floured surface, knead dough till it becomes a smooth, elastic ball.
- Place back in bowl and cover with a damp cloth.
- Allow dough to rest for at least 1 hour.
- Working on a floured surface with floured hands, roll out dough to create a long 'noodle', 1-inch in diameter.
- Cut 1/2-inch pcs and turn them over so cut sides are facing up.
- Flatten with your palm and roll out thin using a rolling pin.
- The dumpling wrapper should end up about 3 inches in diameter.
- Making The Dumplings: Place a small mound of filling in the middle of the wrapper.
- (Be very careful not to touch the edges with the filling, as this will impede proper sealing of the dumplings.
- Nothing is worse than dumplings breaking during cooking.)
- Fold the wrapper in half to create a half moon shape.
- Starting on one end fold/healthy pinch the wrapper tightly together.
- Proceed with this fold/healthy pinch method till the dumpling is completely sealed.
- There will be approximately 10 to 14 folds per dumpling.
- Rest the dumplings with the folded edges straight up.
- Cooking The Dumplings: Use a large stock pot with plenty of water.
- Add in a small handful of salt, as if you were cooking pasta.
- Make sure the water is at a rolling boil before adding dumplings.
- Once the dumplings are dropped, gently stir so which they don't stick together or possibly stick to the bottom.
- Don't try to boil too many at a time, as it will take too long to cook resulting in soggy dumplings.
- Overcooking also causes the dumplings to break apart.
- For the Spicy Soy Dipping Sauce: Combine all and serve in a small bowl.
- For Plating: Serve dumplings on a large platter lined with lettuce with a bowl of dipping sauce on the side.
- One family tradition is the serving of the dumpling 'broth' at the end of the meal since inevitably some of the dumplings do break and flavor the water.
- Waste not, want not.
