Steps:
- Lightly beat the egg white in a large bowl. Add the shrimp, jicama, scallions, cornstarch, rice wine, sesame oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt, the sugar and pepper. Stir well until the mixture starts to thicken, about 1 minute; cover and refrigerate until very cold, about 1 hour.
- Set 1 dumpling wrapper on a clean surface (keep the rest covered with a damp paper towel so they don't dry out). Stir the shrimp mixture, then scoop 1 heaping teaspoonful onto the center of the wrapper. Dab a finger in a cup of cold water and moisten the edges of the wrapper. Fold in half and press the edges together to seal; transfer to a baking sheet. Cover with a damp paper towel while you form the remaining dumplings.
- Fill a large nonstick skillet with 1/4 inch of water and bring to a boil. Working in batches, add the dumplings and arrange in a single layer, cover and let steam until cooked through, about 5 minutes. (If the water evaporates before the dumplings are fully cooked, add 2 more tablespoons to the skillet.) Carefully transfer the dumplings to a serving plate.
- Ponzu Dipping Sauce
- Combine 3 tablespoons ponzu sauce, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil and 1 chopped scallion in a small bowl.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a medium-sized bowl, place the shrimp, bamboo shoots, green onions, rice wine, sesame oil, salt, pepper, egg white, and cornstarch. Mix well.
- Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour to give the flavors a chance to meld.
- In a medium bowl, combine the wheat starch, tapioca starch, and the salt.
- Slowly stir in 1/2 cup of the boiling water. Add the oil and carefully use your hands to shape into a dough.
- Add the remaining boiling water if the dough is too dry. Don't overwork the dough, but continue shaping it for about 2 minutes, until it is smooth and shiny.
- Cover and let rest for 20 minutes.
- Coat a paper towel with vegetable oil and use it to oil your cutting board or work surface and the broad side of a cutting knife or cleaver . Keep the dough covered to prevent it from drying out while preparing the dumplings.
- Break off 1 teaspoon of the dough and roll into a ball. Flatten the ball of dough by pressing it in the palm of your hand.
- Lay the dough on the oiled work surface and press down on it with the oiled side of the knife or cleaver to form a circle that is 2 1/2 to 3 inches wide.
- Place a heaping teaspoon of filling in the middle of the wrapper, spreading it out evenly, without it touching the edges.
- Carefully lift the top edge of the wrapper and fold it over the filling toward you to obtain a half-circle shape. Use your thumb and forefinger to form pleats in the dough, and pinch the edges closed.
- Repeat the process until you have used all of the dough and filling, always greasing the work surface with vegetable oil when needed. Place the completed dumplings on a plate and cover with a damp cloth to keep them from drying out while preparing the remainder of the dumplings.
- Add 2 inches of water to a wok that is at least 2 inches wider than the bottom of your steamer; bring to a boil.
- Arrange an oiled plate inside the steamer. Place a few har gow on the oiled plate, cover, and place the bamboo steamer on top of the boiling water in the prepared pan. Steam the dumplings in batches, until the wrapper is translucent and the shrimp appear slightly orange, around 13 to 15 minutes per batch.
- Serve the har gow with chili oil and soy sauce for dipping. Enjoy!

EASY STEAMED SHRIMP DUMPLINGS
This is an easier albeit much less sophisticated adaptation of Hey Jude's Har Gow recipe (#109191). I wanted something I could make up in the kitchen in our apartment in town, which is tiny and not well equipped. For steaming, I used a rice cooker with a steamer basket.

STEAMED SHRIMP AND VEGETABLE DUMPLINGS
this was me trying to deconstruct the steamed dumplings I get at chinese restaurants, plus adding shrimp. I think it turned out pretty well.

Steps:
- In a large bowl mix together all the minced vegetables. It is important that the vegetables are a very small dice because they are filling the small wontons.
- In a skillet, saute the shrimp in the oil until just about pink. I did not fully cook the shrimp because I feel that the steamer does the rest for me. But if you feel differently, by all means go ahead and cook the shrimp fully. The shrimp should also be chopped small, I like chopping them after they cook, it seems easier.
- Once the shrimp has cooled, add it to the minced vegetables and add the salt to season.
- Take each wonton square and add a small amount of filling to the center. take your index finger, wet it and trace it around the edge of each wonton (to create a seal for the wontons once they are pressed together.).
- Pinch each edge of the wontons so to make a triangle, then bring each of the three tips up together to create a bundle.
- Repeat steps four and five until you use up all the filling.
- Prepare your steamer with the water, heat it for a minute or so, and then lay the lettuce leaves on the bottom to prevent the dumplings from sticking.
- Steam the dumplings in batches for about 2-3 minutes, or until the wontons become translucent.
- Enjoy! They go well with soy sauce, however, I prefer the sweeter type sauce I get with the chinese take-out, so if you can find something like that to serve the dumplings with, I would suggest it.
