Directions
Har Gow (Shrimp Dumplings), Although these are some work, you’ll be very proud of the results These are those lovely, translucent dumplings you get at dim sum places The tapioca flour and wheat starch can usually be found at good oriental food stores These are best made in a bamboo steamer I’ve included a recipe for a dip but you can use your own favorite dumpling sauce if you wish This is a Madame S T Ting Wong recipe Prep time includes fridge time for the shrimp mixture , The dough turned out really well, I would recommend doubling the dough as I had alot more mixture than dough next time I will also leave out the water chestnuts due to personal taste All in all I was glad I had a chance to make it Thank you Hey Jude :), Thank you so much for this recipe I have wanted to make these for years but have always found something else that needed doing, like rearranging all the canned goods in alphabetical order, or This recipe works! I did flatten the dough lumps with my Chinese cleaver, and, if I can do it, probably anybody can This does take practice, and I’m sure I’ll be much better at it next time, but it is totally worth doing BTW, I did seem to have rather more filling than wrappers This could be from lack of practice, too Anyway, thank you again for posting this
