STEAMED DUMPLINGS WITH GINGER HOISIN SAUCE
What could be better than steamed dumplings? The sauce is a product of trial and error. My old boss made the best dipping sauce for dumplings, and he told me the ingredients, but not the quantities (hehe). This is pretty close. I am often lazy and buy frozen dumplings and then just make the accompanying sauce.

Steps:
- In a small bowl combine pork, onions, garlic, sesame oil, salt and pepper.
- Fill each wrap with a small spoonful of the pork mixture and seal with water, pressing edges and folding a bit to "ruffle" them.
- Heat water to boiling, and place bamboo steamer (or sieve) lined with a large cabbage or lettuce leaf (to prevent sticking) over the pot.
- Reduce heat to medium.
- Place dumplings in a single layer (not touching each other) on leaf, cover and steam for 20 minutes or so--until cooked through.
- Meanwhile, make sauce.
- In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, vinegar, hoisin, sesame oil and sugar; set aside.
- In a small sauce pan, heat oil, and sauté garlic and ginger until barely golden.
- Add soy mixture and heat through.
- If desired, whisk cornstarch and water to make a slurry and use this to thicken the sauce.
- Thickening the sauce allows for better coating of the dumplings while dipping, but is not necessary.
- Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
- Serve hot dumplings with sauce.
