Shrimp dim sum dupling recipe


Shrimp Dumpling Filling
1 tsp powdered chicken stock
¼ tsp sugar
¼ tsp sesame oil
6 ounces finely minced shrimp
½ cup finely chopped bamboo shoots
¼ tsp salt
Mix ingredients and chill for four hours.
Dim Sum Wrappers
2 cups wheat flour
3 tbsp cornstarch
1¾ cups boiling water
Mix flour, cornstarch and water, adjusting amounts (if necessary) to form a dough that feels similar to pizza dough. Divide the dough into about 12 small balls and roll each out into a thin, three-inch circle. Place a tablespoon of the filling in the center of each dough round and bring up the edges in the center to make a purse shape, pinching it closed. (If using premade wrappers, first moisten the edges with water to keep the dumpling sealed.) Place the dumplings in bamboo containers, about four per  container, and steam for four minutes, It will take practice to make it nice but even ugly as _______? it will be good to eat .
