🥟Jiaozi Dumpling Dough
These are Northern Chinese style dumplings. In this recipe, we use hot water, which helps give the dumplings a more creamy and sturdy texture.
Serves: makes 16-18 dumplings
Preparation time: 1 hour
Execution time: 15 minutes
INGREDIENTS
- 180g plain flour (or substitute Tipo 00 flour)
- 95ml boiling water
METHOD
- Using a chopstick, mix the flour and hot water in a mixing bowl until the dough starts to come together.
- Turn the dough out onto a work surface and knead it for 5-8 minutes or until the dough becomes smooth and lighter in colour.
- Rest the dough for 30 minutes or overnight.
- Divide the dough into 24 pieces.
- Dusting the surface of the table with a little flour, use a rolling pin, pushing forward only to roll the dumpling dough out. After every push with the rolling pin, rotate the dough 45 degrees and continue until the dumpling dough is thinner than 1mm.
To cook steam the dumplings:
- Prepare a steamer, and heat the water until it is at a steady simmer. Steam the dumplings for 8-10 minutes.
To pan-fry the dumplings:
- Heat a heavy–bottom skillet over medium-low heat. Add in 2 tsp of vegetable oil. Add in the dumplings and fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Add in 50ml of water to the pan and place a lid on it. Reduce the heat to low. Cook the dumplings, covered, for 7-8 minutes. Remove the lid. Continue cooking the dumplings for another 1-2 minutes or until all of the remaining liquid has evaporated, and the dumplings are crispy.

🥣 Miso Shiru- Miso Soup
Miso soup is a fundamental aspect of Japanese cuisine. It’s traditionally eaten as an accompaniment with any meal of the day. This particular version has deep earthy notes from a blend of dried and fresh mushrooms. Miso paste, a fermentation of soybeans, wheat and rice, has a high concentration of various B vitamins, E vitamins, as well as both pro and pre-biotics.
Serves 2
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Execution Time: 30 minutes
INGREDIENTS
- 350ml dashi stock
- 1 spring onion, sliced thinly
- 20g tofu, chopped into 1x1cm cubes
- 1 tbsp aka or genmai miso
METHOD
- Place the cut tofu and spring onion into miso soup bowls.
- Place the dashi stock into a small saucepan gently heat the stock over medium-low heat until it reaches a simmer. Place the sliced mushrooms in the broth and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.
- Place the miso in a mesh strainer and suspend the base of the strainer in the top of the shiitake/kombu stock and mix the miso with chopsticks until it dissolves into the broth. Either discard or dump the remaining bits of soybean from the miso into the soup, depending on whether you prefer a completely smooth or hearty texture. Ladle the soup gently into the soup bowls and serve immediately.
🍄 Shojin Dashi- Kombu and Shiitake Mushroom Stock
This stock is a foundational element of Japanese Buddhist cuisine. This is the most simple version of the stock, but it sometimes also contains other ingredients like dried or fresh daikon radish, or dried eggplant. Compounds contained within shiitake mushrooms are known to boost immunity, fight cancer and improve heart help. Kombu Kelp is a nutrient dense food which contains lots of magnesium and numerous anti-oxidants.
Active time: 5 minutes
Total time:1 hour
Serves: makes scant 1L
INGREDIENTS
- 1L cold water
- 6g dried shiitake mushrooms
- 2g kombu
METHOD
Either: place all of the ingredients in a container and refrigerate overnight. The next day, discard the kombu, and squeeze out the mushrooms to yield as much stock as possible. The mushrooms can be reserved for another use.
OR: Place all of the ingredients in a sauce pan and bring the water to around 70C. Simmer the ingredients at around 70C for 1 hour. Discard the kombu, and squeeze out the mushrooms to yield as much stock as possible. The mushrooms can be reserved for another use.
