Preparation time: 40 mins
Cooking time: 10 mins
Serving: 64
Ingredients:
For the Dough
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
- ¾ cup warm water
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
For the Filling
- 2 pounds of ground pork
- 8 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
- ⅔ cup thinly sliced green onions
- ½ cup thinly sliced chives
- 4 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes) (Optional)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce (Optional)
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
For the Broth (1 cup per serving)
- ⅓ cup seasoned rice vinegar (Optional)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce, or to taste (Optional)
- 1 teaspoon gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes) (Optional)
- 4 cups chicken broth (Optional)
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
Instructions:
- Combine flour, salt, and water in a bowl. Mix with a wooden spoon until dough comes together in a sticky ball. Sprinkle in more flour and knead by hand, adding more flour as needed, until soft and supple. Wrap in plastic and let rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
- Combine ground pork, garlic, ginger, green onions, and chives in a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, gochugaru, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix together using two forks just until combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Mix vinegar, soy sauce, and gochugaru into the chicken broth and set aside.
- Divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll one piece into a rope about the thickness of your thumb. Using a rolling pin, flatten into a long, thin band about 3 inches wide, flouring only as needed. Dust the top with flour and flip over. Dip your fingers in some water and lightly brush the surface until slightly sticky.
- Use moistened fingers to line about 1/4 of the pork filling across the dough. Fold the dough over the whole length, pressing it down over the meat. Trim off excess dough if desired. Dust a little more flour on top and roll over so the seam side is on the bottom. Divide into 16 pieces using the edge of your hand, then a bench scraper to cut. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Heat oil in a pan over high heat. Cook dumplings in batches, seam-side up, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Pour in a portion of the broth and bring to a boil. Cover and continue to boil until pork is no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Pour dumplings with broth into serving bowls.
