Ingredients
  

Dumpling Dough
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup hot water just off the boil
  • 1/2 tsp salt optional

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Rolling Pin
  • Kitchen Towel

Method
 

  1. Combine the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Slowly pour in the hot water while stirring with chopsticks or a spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Cover the dough and let it rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
  5. Divide the dough into logs, cut into equal pieces, and roll each into a thin round wrapper.

Notes

Keep unused dough covered at all times to prevent drying. Lightly dust wrappers with flour before stacking.
