  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 2 hrs
  • Yield: 250 ml / 1 cup 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • blender
  • medium-sized saucepan
  • whisk
  • a bowl which the medium saucepan fits into
  • 2 medium-sized bowls
  • 2 fine sieves
  • sealable container (oil bottle)
  • ice cubes
  • coffee filter

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 garlic bulbs
  • 250 milliliters extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

  1. Peel all garlic cloves and put them into the blender. Pour in the oil. Blend on the highest setting until there are only tiny pieces of the garlic left.
  2. Pour the mixture from the blender into a medium-sized pot and heat it over medium heat to a temperature of about 108°-110°C (226°-230°F), and maintain this temperature for the next 15 minutes. Stir occasionally, making sure the temperature remains steady and nothing gets burned.
  3. Prepare a bowl large enough to fit a medium-sized pot, and fill it with cold water and a handful of ice cubes. Also, hang a fine sieve strainer over one medium-sized bowl and another fine sieve strainer, with a coffee filter inside it, over another medium-sized bowl.
  4. Now, place the pot in the ice water and stir to cool the oil quickly. Once the oil is almost cold, remove the pot from the water and let it sit for about 20 minutes so that the oil gets more infused.
  5. After the 20 minutes, pour the oil into the prepared fine sieve to catch the coarse particles.
  6. Then, pour the oil into the second sieve, which is equipped with a coffee filter, to catch the remaining finer particles.
  7. Allow the oil to drip through for about 1 hour or maybe more depending on how many remaining particles are in the coffee filter. Once all the oil has passed through the coffee filter, transfer the collected amount of oil into a sealable container or directly into an oil bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to a few days.

PASSIVE: 20 min

COOKING

1. Heat a large pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoons of clarified butter. Start by sautéing the white parts of the green onions, ginger, and garlic for a few minutes. Next, add the carrot pieces and sauté for a few more minutes. Then, add the mushroom pieces, mix well, and finally add the napa cabbage. Let the napa cabbage cook until soft, then stir everything together. Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool.

2. Once the mixture has cooled down, add 2 tablespoons of chopped cilantro, the green parts of the green onions, 1/4 teaspoon of ground white pepper, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil. Mix everything well.

3. Set up your vegetable filling, the dumpling wrappers, and a small bowl of cold water. Also, prepare a large plate dusted with a little flour where you can place your finished dumplings. Now, put on your favorite series or podcast and start filling your dumplings 🙂

4. Take a wrapper and place about 1-1.5 teaspoons of the vegetable mixture in the center. Dip a finger in the water and moisten the edge of the upper half of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper like a taco shell upwards and press the left tip of the wrapper with your left hand. Now, with the right hand’s index finger and thumb, hold the closed tip with your left thumb, place a small fold at the top edge against the backside of the wrapper and press it firmly. Continue this until the wrapper is completely closed and you have a finished dumpling in your hand. Place the finished dumpling on the floured plate. This folding technique might take a little practice. For a visual demonstration, just scroll down to my video at the end of the recipe 🙂 Continue this process until all the dumpling wrappers and filling are used up.

5. Fill a medium-sized pot with enough water to fill just over half the pot. Bring the water to a boil.

6. Meanwhile, you can prepare the Sesame Miso Soup in the other pot. Add the following ingredients to the pot: tahini, white miso paste, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, crispy chili oil, water, and grated garlic and ginger. Bring everything to a simmer over medium heat. Keep the soup on a low flame on the stove.

7. Once the water in the other pot is boiling, turn it down slightly and add 6-8 dumplings depending on the size of your pot and let them cook for about 8 minutes. Since dumplings expand while cooking, do not overcrowd your pot. Once the dumplings become translucent and the filling is clearly visible, they are done. Place the dumplings in the bowls in which you want to serve them. Continue this for all dumplings until all are cooked.

8. Once all dumplings are ready, evenly distribute the soup from the other pot over the dumplings. Top each bowl with some cilantro, Crispy Chili Oil, and toasted sesame seeds.
