Cooking tips

  • Using chicken stock enhances the umami flavor that penetrates both the dumpling skin and filling, greatly improving taste.
  • Adding sesame oil before microwaving helps prevent the dumpling surface from drying out and adds a rich, nutty aroma.
  • The seasoning sauce should not be used as a dip—instead, generously drizzle it over the dumplings to keep them moist and flavorful.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy high-quality dumplings quickly without using a stove.
  • Those looking to add a unique, spicy Chinese twist to regular water dumplings.
