Let's Cook

Step 1.
Make the Dumpling Dough according to the recipe. While the dough is resting, prepare the Balsamic-Soy Dipping Sauce: in a small bowl, combine ⅓ cup soy sauce and ¼ cup everyday balsamic vinegar, stirring until well mixed. Set the sauce aside.

Step 2.
To make the filling, place 1 pound ground pork, ¼ pound peeled and deveined gulf shrimp (roughly diced), ½ cup chopped Chinese chives or leeks, 2 teaspoons minced garlic, 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine or dry Marsala wine in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse for 5 seconds at a time until the filling is well combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. The ingredients should still be discernible and not pasty. Set the filling aside.

Step 3.
Fill the dumpling wrappers with the prepared filling, following the instructions in 'Making Dumplings'.
