Let's Prepare

  • 680 g All-Purpose Eggless Dough
  • 591 ml agar-agar broth
  • dried whole-cap medium shiitake (black) mushrooms
  • 29.6 ml peanut oil
  • 44.4 ml soy sauce
  • 29.6 ml Shaoxing wine, sake, or dry sherry
  • sugar
  • kosher salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 22.2 ml toasted sesame oil

Prepare

  • 454 g fresh cremini or button mushrooms, finely diced
  • scallions (both white and green parts), thinly sliced
  • 14.8 ml fresh ginger, minced or finely grated

Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    Prepare the All-Purpose Eggless Dough according to the instructions on the referenced page. Do not use store-bought dumpling skins.

  2. Step 2.

    Prepare the agar-agar broth according to the instructions on the referenced page.

  3. Step 3.

    Reconstitute the dried shiitake mushrooms according to the instructions on the referenced page (steps 2–3). Reserve the soaking water.

  4. Step 4.

    While the mushrooms reconstitute, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, preheat 2 tablespoons peanut oil for 1 to 2 minutes until hot. Add both the reconstituted shiitake mushrooms (finely diced) and 1 pound finely diced fresh cremini or button mushrooms. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

  5. Step 5.

    Add 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine (or sake/dry sherry), and ½ cup of the reserved mushroom water. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pan is fairly dry and the mushrooms are well seasoned.

  6. Step 6.

    Add 2 to 3 teaspoons sugar, 1 to 3 teaspoons kosher salt, ½ to 1 teaspoon black pepper (to taste), 1½ tablespoons toasted sesame oil, 4 to 5 thinly sliced scallions, and 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring, until incorporated. Remove from heat and let cool until no longer steaming, stirring occasionally to speed cooling. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  7. Step 7.

    If any liquid has sweated out from the chilled mushroom mixture, transfer the agar-agar broth cubes to a fine-mesh sieve and drain for 30 seconds. Add the drained cubes to the chilled mushroom mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until evenly distributed.

  8. Step 8.

    Form the dumplings according to the instructions on the referenced page, using the prepared dough and filling.

  9. Step 9.

    Steam the dumplings according to the instructions on the referenced page.
