Steps:

• In a medium bowl, add the ground pork, green onions, garlic, BBQ sauce, BBQ seasoning, mustard, Worcestershire, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Mix together with a wooden spoon until incorporated
• Lay 3 wonton wrappers at a time out on your work surface. Cover the others with a damp paper towel to keep them from drying out. Dip your finger in a small ramekin of water and brush the edges of the wrapper lightly with water. Drop a teaspoon of the filling into the center of the wonton, add a drop of BBQ sauce, approximately a teaspoon, on top of the filling. Bring 2 opposite points together and seal, then bring the next 2 points together and pleat the top, making a little purse. As you go, set the filled dumplings on a sheet tray and cover with another damp paper towel. Repeat until all the filling is used.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add just enough canola oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Once hot, add the dumplings to the pan. Make sure they are not touching or crowded together. Let the dumplings cook, for 2 minutes. Add 1/3 cup of the chicken stock and cover. Reduce the heat to low, and allow the dumplings to finish cooking by steaming, another 2 to 3 minutes. Once done, gently remove the dumplings from the pan.
• Repeat with the remaining dumplings. Transfer to a serving platter and serve.
• Mix all the ingredients together and store in an airtight container.

SHRIMP SHUMAI AND PORK POT STICKERS WITH DIPPING SAUCE

• For the shrimp shumai filling: Whisk to combine the egg whites and cornstarch in a medium bowl and set aside.
• Add the shrimp to a food processor and pulse into a chunky paste. Transfer the shrimp to a medium bowl and stir in the cornstarch and egg white mixture.
• Stir in the garlic, scallions, lemon zest, lemon juice, ginger, soy sauce and toasted sesame oil.
• To determine if the filling is seasoned well, make a small patty, about 2 tablespoons. Place a small saute pan over medium-high heat and add the canola oil. Once heated, add the tester patty and cook on both sides until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the pan and place on a paper-towel-lined plate, then taste. Adjust the seasoning of the remaining filling with soy sauce if needed.
• For the pork pot sticker filling: Mix to combine the pork, soy sauce, ginger, sambal, garlic, scallions, egg whites, water chestnuts, bell pepper and cilantro in a large bowl.

Adjust the seasoning of the remaining filling with soy sauce if needed.
• To make the dipping sauce: Combine the rice wine vinegar, fish sauce, sugar and sambal in a container, then cover and shake to combine. Set the dipping sauce aside while you assemble the dumplings.
• To cook: Place half of the wonton wrappers on a clean surface and add about 2 teaspoons of the shrimp filling to the center of each wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold and pleat as you gather the wrapping around the filling, leaving the top of the filling uncovered. Gently tap the shumai on your work surface, flattening the bottom and allowing it to stand upright, and form into a basket shape.
• Place the remaining half of the wonton wrappers on a clean work surface and add about 2 teaspoons of the pork filling to the center of each wrapper. Working one at a time, brush the edges of the wrapper with water and fold over to make a half-moon. Pinch the edges to pleat and close the filling into the center.
• Line each tray of a bamboo steamer with a round of perforated steamer parchment paper or the cabbage leaves, if using, and cover with the lid. Bring 1 to 2 inches of water to a boil in a large, wide pan. Set the bamboo steamer over the pot. Continue to add water as needed.
• Working in batches, place the shrimp shumai in the steamer and cover with the lid. Steam the shumai until cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Heat the canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the pork pot stickers and pour in 1/4 cup water. Cover the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, then remove the cover and cook until the remaining water has evaporated and the bottom of the pot stickers are golden and crisp.
• Serve the shrimp shumai and the pork pot stickers with the dipping sauce.

POT STICKERS

Steps:

• In a blender, combine garlic and ginger. Turn on machine and slowly pour the peanut oil and process to a puree. Transfer to a bowl and add the remaining ingredients. Stir together and marinate for 1 hour. Pass mixture through medium dye in the meat grinder. Transfer to an electric standing mixer and using the paddle, on slow speed, mix until emulsified.
• Make the pot stickers. Separate the wonton wrappers and brush edges with eggwash. Place a generous spoonful of the filling and seal the edges, making small folds in the rounded side, starting from the center, and folding down to each end to create a half moon shape. Continue until you have used up the filling. Refrigerate until ready to cook.
• Cook pot stickers in small batches in boiling, salted water. Drain. Heat a non-stick saute pan with peanut oil and sear until golden on the bottom. Remove and serve with dipping sauce.
