Shi Jiau-dz
Boiled Dumplings

Ingredients Filling:

1 pound ground pork

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup water

2 pounds tzukini

1/2 cup chopped green onions

1/4 cup chopped ginger

Skin:

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup cold water

1/2 cup flour (to prevent sticking during kneading).

Tools:

1 bowl for mixing the filling

1 bowl for mixing the skin

1 big board for kneading the skin

1 rolling pin to make the skin

1 big pot to boil the dumplings

1 colander

1 skimming spoon

Filling: Chop the tzukini, add 1 teaspoon salt and let sit for 1 minute; squeeze out the excess water. Mix the squeezed tzukini and pork and the rest of the materials well in a bowl.

Skin: In a bowl, add flour and water and knead into a smooth dough. Let it stand for 10 minutes. Roll the dough into a long baton-like roll and cut it into small pieces. Use a rolling pin to roll each piece to a thin circle. Place filling in each flattened piece of dough. Fold dough over stuffing and crimp edges closed.

Boil: Boil 10 cups water and add dumplings; stir to prevent dumplings from sticking together. Bring up to a boil, add 1/2 cup cold water, and bring up to boil again (three times). Use big skimming spoon to scoop up the dumplings into the colander; drain the water out.

Serving: Use soy sauce, vinegar, sesame seed oil, and a lot of garlic.

Note: If using ready-made skins, seal the edges of the skins with water.
