So First, Were Gonna Start on the Stock So It Can Simmer Away While We Make the Dumplings. Take 1 1/2 Carrots (saving 1/2 a Carrot For Later) and Cut Into Big Chunks and Throw in a Medium Pot. Now Add in 1/2 of a Cabbage, Roughly Cut in Half. Cut an Onion Into Sections and Throw That in as Well. Now Chop Off the Stems from Your Shiitake Mushrooms and Add the Stems Only to the Pot. Fill the Pot With Water to the Top Leaving About 1 Inch on the Tip, Add a Pinch of Salt and Bring to a Simmer on Medium Heat. Let That Simmer For About 25 Minutes and Then Add in the Stalks from 2 Bunches of Cilantro. Keep the Leaves For Later. Let That Simmer For Another 20 Minutes on Low Heat. Add More Salt to Taste! |
