Chinese Soupy Dumpling

This weekend we made soupy dumplings, a favorite that can be eaten for any meal of the day. A shrimp, pork, and gingery mixture gets mixed with a flavorful aspic in a Chinese dumpling wrapper before getting steamed. Watch below to see details on how they’re made.

Incidentally, the place I first had these treats was at Joe’s Shanghai restaurant in NYC Chinatown. Folks there told us Joe’s surpassed what they normally got in San Francisco (I’ve tried them on both coasts, and Joe’s is still my favorite). See what Joe’s Shanghai has to say about this soupy dumpling:
