Method

  1. 1 Knead the flour with water, let it rest for 40 minutes, and then roll it into a thin, round pastry.
  2. 2 Mix the minced pork with ginger water until the filling is pliable and absorbs the juices.
  3. 3 Wrap the filling into a package with one side folded, then squeeze the edges to seal.
  4. 4 Boil the dumplings in gently simmering water, adding cold water twice to make the wrappers firm.
  5. 5 Cook soy sauce with rock sugar and cinnamon to make sweet soy sauce.
  6. 6 This version has no broth, just a drizzle of sweet soy sauce with chili oil, garlic, and sesame sauce.
