**Dumplings: A Culinary Journey Across Cultures**

Dumplings, delectable parcels of dough filled with savory or sweet ingredients, have captivated taste buds worldwide, becoming an integral part of diverse cuisines. From the delicate Chinese dumplings to the hearty Eastern European pierogi, these culinary creations are a testament to human ingenuity and the boundless possibilities of culinary exploration. This article embarks on a culinary adventure, delving into the world of dumplings, showcasing a collection of recipes that span continents and cultures, each offering a unique and flavorful experience.

In the realm of Chinese cuisine, dumplings take center stage, with a myriad of regional variations. We'll explore the classic pork and chive dumplings, a quintessential street food delight, as well as the Shanghai-style dumplings, distinguished by their delicate wrappers and juicy filling. For those with a penchant for seafood, the prawn and chive dumplings offer a delightful burst of briny flavors, while the vegetarian dumplings cater to those seeking a meatless option.

Venturing beyond China, we'll discover the Polish pierogi, a beloved comfort food featuring a variety of fillings, including potato and cheese, sauerkraut and mushrooms, or meat and onions. From Poland, we'll journey to Italy, where ravioli, pasta pockets filled with ricotta cheese and spinach, reign supreme. These delectable dumplings are often served in a simple tomato sauce or adorned with a flavorful pesto.

As we continue our culinary expedition, we'll encounter the Turkish manti, small dumplings filled with ground beef or lamb, immersed in a rich yogurt sauce. These succulent morsels are a true testament to the harmonious blend of flavors and textures. Back in Asia, we'll explore Korean mandu, characterized by their dumpling wrappers made with wheat flour and filled with a savory mixture of pork, vegetables, and glass noodles.

Our dumpling adventure culminates in Japan, where gyoza, pan-fried dumplings filled with pork, cabbage, and ginger, are a staple dish. Savor the crispy texture of the pan-fried base paired with a flavorful dipping sauce. Throughout this culinary journey, we'll unearth the secrets behind crafting the perfect dumpling, from selecting the right ingredients to perfecting the folding technique.

Here are our top 20 tried and tested recipes!

DUMPLINGS



Dumplings image

My mother was one of the best cooks I ever knew. When she made stews we mostly found dumplings in them. We never ate things from packages or microwaves and you sure could taste what food was. That's the only way I cook today - I don't use any electronic gadgets to cook with except an electric stove.

OLD-FASHIONED APPLE DUMPLINGS



Old-Fashioned Apple Dumplings image

These are the ones my grandmother used to make: warm, flaky, apple-y sweet and drizzled with a sauce that bakes right with them. These are not difficult to make, just a little time-consuming. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.

Provided by MICKI WOOD

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Apple Dessert Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 recipe pastry for double-crust pie
6 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and cored
½ cup butter
¾ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 cups water
2 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch pan.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry into a large rectangle, about 24 by 16 inches. Cut into 6 square pieces. Place an apple on each pastry square with the cored opening facing upward. Cut butter into 8 pieces. Place 1 piece of butter in the opening of each apple; reserve remaining butter for sauce. Divide brown sugar between apples, poking some inside each cored opening and the rest around the base of each apple. Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg over the apples.
  • With slightly wet fingertips, bring one corner of pastry square up to the top of the apple, then bring the opposite corner to the top and press together. Bring up the two remaining corners, and seal. Slightly pinch the dough at the sides to completely seal in the apple. Repeat with the remaining apples. Place in prepared baking dish.
  • In a saucepan, combine water, white sugar, vanilla extract and reserved butter. Place over medium heat, and bring to a boil in a large saucepan. Boil for 5 minutes, or until sugar is dissolved. Carefully pour over dumplings.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes. Place each apple dumpling in a dessert bowl, and spoon some sauce over the top.

Provided by ambikins

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Stews     Beef

Time 3h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, coarsely chopped
2 pounds cubed beef stew meat
2 teaspoons steak seasoning (such as Montreal Steak Seasoning®), divided
2 stalks celery, each cut into 4 pieces
2 cups water, or to cover
4 (.85 ounce) packages dry brown gravy mix
4 cups water
1 small turnip, peeled and quartered
4 carrots, peeled and quartered
7 potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons shortening
¾ cup milk

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering, and place the onion and beef into the hot oil. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the steak seasoning, stir the meat and onions well, and sprinkle with 1 more teaspoon of seasoning. Add the celery, and cook and stir until the meat is browned, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour in 2 cups of water to just cover the meat, onion, and celery, bring to a boil, and stir and scrape the browned bits of flavor from the bottom of the pan. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until the beef is very tender, about 2 hours. Remove the meat and celery pieces from the pan, set the meat aside, and discard the celery.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the gravy mix with 4 cups of water. Add the mixture to the juices in the pot, bring to a boil, and stir the meat back into the gravy mixture. Stir in the turnip and carrots, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in the potatoes, cover, and simmer an additional 20 minutes.
  • To make dumplings, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Cut the shortening into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter or two knives until the mixture looks crumbly. Pour in the milk, and lightly stir the mixture just until it combines to form a dough.
  • Remove 2 cups of gravy from the pot, and reserve. Drop the dumplings by heaping tablespoon onto the meat and vegetables in the pot, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Do not peek until the time is up. Pour the reserved gravy back over the dumplings, stir lightly, and serve.

APPLE DUMPLINGS



Apple Dumplings image

You can't go wrong with a classic Betty Crocker recipe, and this one is no exception. This timeless dessert is the epitome of fall-homemade flaky pastry is wrapped around a hot and bubbly apple and a warm brown sugar glaze is poured on top for an extra sweet finish. While these dumplings are sublime on their own, we wouldn't be opposed to eating these crispy apple treats with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour or whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons cold butter or margarine
4 to 5 tablespoons cold water
6 baking apples, about 3 inches in diameter (such as Braeburn, Granny Smith or Rome)
3 tablespoons raisins
3 tablespoons chopped nuts
2 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 1/3 cups water

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Cut in the butter, using a pastry blender or fork, until particles are the size of small peas. Sprinkle with the cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing well with fork until all flour is moistened. Gather the dough together, and press it into a 6x4-inch rectangle.
  • Lightly sprinkle flour over a cutting board or countertop. Cut off 1/3 of the dough with a knife; set aside. On the floured surface, place 2/3 of the dough. Flatten dough evenly, using hands or a rolling pin, into a 14-inch square; cut into 4 squares. Flatten the remaining 1/3 of the dough into a 14x7-inch rectangle; cut into 2 squares. You will have 6 squares of dough.
  • Remove the stem end from each apple. Place the apple on a cutting board. Using a paring knife, cut around the core by pushing the knife straight down to the bottom of the apple and pull up. Move the knife and make the next cut. Repeat until you have cut around the apple core. Push the core from the apple. (Or remove the cores with an apple corer.) Peel the apples with a paring knife.
  • Place 1 apple on the center of each square of dough. In a small bowl, mix the raisins and nuts. Fill the center of each apple with raisin mixture. Moisten the corners of each square with small amount of water; bring 2 opposite corners of dough up over apple and press corners together. Fold in sides of remaining corners; bring corners up over apple and press together. Place dumplings in a 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish.
  • In a 2-quart saucepan, heat the brown sugar and 1 1/3 cups water to boiling over high heat, stirring frequently. Carefully pour the sugar syrup around the dumplings.
  • Bake about 40 minutes, spooning syrup over apples 2 or 3 times, until crust is browned and apples are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Serve warm or cooled with syrup from pan.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

100 (3.5 inch square) wonton wrappers
1 ¾ pounds ground pork
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
4 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons sesame oil
1 egg, beaten
5 cups finely shredded Chinese cabbage

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the pork, ginger, garlic, green onion, soy sauce, sesame oil, egg and cabbage. Stir until well mixed.
  • Place 1 heaping teaspoon of pork filling onto each wonton skin. Moisten edges with water and fold edges over to form a triangle shape. Roll edges slightly to seal in filling. Set dumplings aside on a lightly floured surface until ready to cook.

Tips:

  • Choose the right flour: All-purpose flour is the most common type of flour used for dumplings, but you can also use bread flour or pastry flour. Bread flour will give you a chewier dumpling, while pastry flour will give you a more tender dumpling.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make your dumplings tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then stop.
  • Let the dough rest: Letting the dough rest for at least 30 minutes will help it to develop flavor and become more pliable.
  • Use cold water: Cold water will help to keep the dough from becoming too sticky.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: When cooking dumplings, don't overcrowd the pot. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the dumplings until they are cooked through: Dumplings are cooked through when they are no longer doughy in the center. You can check this by inserting a toothpick into the center of a dumpling. If the toothpick comes out clean, the dumpling is cooked through.

Conclusion:

Dumplings are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. With a little practice, you can make perfect dumplings at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give dumplings a try!
