10:43 The way he uses a frying spoon to cook Dan Jiao is the exact same way as my grandpa did when he had strength. The difference being my grandpa would use lard instead of neutral oil. Ah, good old childhood memories……
@aguy1981 The "dragging it out" is likely a part of his dialect. It's the same language, but depending on where you are, the pronunciation differs. I'm from the southern U.S. The typical pronunciations here would sound odd to people from, say, New England, but it's normal for me.
Love you’re a doctor & a chef. So tired of chefs (or restaurant workers) tell us how to make Chinese food. Cuz Chinese food is people (home/town/family) food. It’s like a chef teaching us how to prepare cereal or making peanut butter jelly or a ham & cheese sandwich. Thank you, Epicurious.
I agree, it's not just Chinese food but almost all asian foods. Every family or region or ethics have different version of a certain food and some chef think "we have the best recipe" or "this is the standard way but fancy"
You can tell dumplings are good because it's so much effort for what is a pretty small food, and yet all around the world people are like "yeah let's make them"
The process and effort is part of the goodness too! I have great childhood memories of making dumplings as a family, with all three generations together and everyone in charge of one step of the process 😊
The procedure of making dumplings are perfect. However personally I make the sauce a little different. We use pre-made chilli oil (made with chilli powder, flake, tsaoko, star anise , cinnamon and many other spices), coriander, finely crushed garlic, spring onion, black vinegar, soy sauce, a teaspoon of sugar and a hint of Sichuan Peppercorn oil. Every household has its own secret dumpling dip. (when we can't be bothered we just pour some soy sauce and vinegar lol)
I’m American, so I’m certain it isn’t traditional, but I always like to make mine with soy sauce, rice vinegar, star anise, cinnamon, garlic, diced Thai chilis from my garden, sesame oil, and a little double black soy sauce.
Soy sauce and vinegar are the two foundational ingredients for a dumpling sauce. Every other ingredient comes afterwards. I typically love acid, so the balance is tilted towards vinegar. Minced garlic, minced shallots, thinly sliced scallions, freshly minced chili (or chili oil), and sesame oil are also ingredients I use if I’m not lazy, but it varies from person to person in a house.
@Epicurious please more method mastery y'all have me checking the playlists everyday for new videos. Tis is by far the best series I have seen on this channel and I can't wait for more.
I love these series, they’re very engaging and useful! Fun to watch especially at 2am on a work day haha. Also, got a video Idea: “How to make every pizza” or “how to shape every pizza base, or crust” you know. Deep dish, thin crust, cheese crust…
What a wholesome guy! His joy is contagious ^_^ And I'm so intrigued by the famous dumplings, I managed to somehow never try them (the options are limited where I live...)
I love how the chef just love the food he is making, even though he had those a thousands times but it's like he still love them like if he just discovered them. I'm definitely going to practice Chef, I swear. Promise!
guotie(锅贴) in chinese literally means "sticking to the pan", so you don't need that much oil since the dumplings sticking to the pan is part of the goal. Also, you only fry the bottom, for longer, instead of frying multiple sides, so you get more contrasting textures, and its best to make guotie using leftover dumplings, similart to making fried rice, because the leftover dumplings are slightly harder and dryer.
I have always toyed with this idea of getting a phd in engineering but works as something completely different. Its been on my mind since my undergrad, but now that i am working, i think i like the idea even more.
My wife uses our Joyoung noodle maker to make the jiaozi wrappers. It comes with a template that makes a VERY wide noodle and a die to cut out circular pieces. The scraps can be thrown into the hopper and run through again.
I...actually don't think I've encountered and eaten many dumplings in my life. The two I'm most familiar with are those flour and water drop dumplings one would cook in a stew. The other being the Polish pierogi, which I am absolutely in love with. I kinda want to learn how to fold dumplings now, especially since my fine motor skills are poor. They do get cramped easily, though, so I can probably only make 2 or 3 before calling it quits.
I make dumplings at home and freeze them. During the winter, whenever I want something warm and cozy, I just take out a handfull/serving. Sear them on a pan with some oil and then add some stock and other flavors to about half the height of the dumplings. Cover and let cook for about 5-6 minutes. Soup with dumplings, piping hot, ready in 10 minutes or so.
@@andycalimara The guy who made it did a horrible job, though it was left alone until a reaction video of it was made pointing out just how terrible it was. The "chef" could not pronounce the name of the dumplings nor could he fold them to save his life. In fact, the only proof the video existed other than our memories is someone making a reaction of the first reaction vid.
The Hawaiian? chef instructor guy? yeah , seems that fella was thrown in front of the camera with an unfamiliar task of making dumplings. Very much of a train wreck video. I have snips of it while discussing said video on discord
When the video was starting, I questioned whether the chef would be authentic or Chinese. Then I saw that the chef was also a doctor and knew he was 200% Chinese. This man had to carry his AND his parents dreams on the same shoulders.
I must be missing somethin…where can I find the recipes to follow along and make the dumplings? Thank You Chef Dr. Tom Lo…watching this was a healing for the heart with passion for food but it left me hungry in a good way, wanting to make some too! 😊

Here is what I found online, hope this helps. 【dumpling skin】 Ingredients: 500g of all-purpose flour, 1 egg, a little salt, and an appropriate amount of warm water. Method: The first step, first put the flour in a basin, break in an egg, stir and melt in warm water with an appropriate amount of salt, and then slowly pour it into the flour. In the second step, the water should be poured and stirred until it becomes flocculent. When there is no dry powder, knead it into a smooth dough, then cover it with plastic wrap and let it wake up for 10 minutes. The third step is to mix the dumpling filling when the dough is waking up. After the dumpling filling is mixed, take out the dough, sprinkle some dry flour on the chopping board, knead the dough into long strips, divide it into small doses, and roll it into dumpling skins.
Or if you don't want to spend all day making dumplings and you can have gluten, Xiao Chi Jie has some AMAZING dumplings. My freezer is too cold for them, which makes them all stick together in a giant rock-hard uber-dumpling, but they're so delicious and very economical.
Hey Dr Chef ;-) Love your video! My favorite way of cooking dumplings is steamed in the pan but with a slurry, instead of water, than I remove the lid for the skirt to crisp up. Dou you have any advice on freezing dumplings? Mine always crack open (they dont open by the seam, the dought breaks appart while in the freezer) I tried making the dough from scratch and with storebough wrappers...same tragedy every time. I'm vegetarian and mostly making tofu-shitake filling, maybe its the water content of my filling? I lost the joy of making my own because I cant freeze them for later. Thanks for the inspiration!
Everybody who loves dumplings should come by Austria sometimes. If you count every filling and dogh, there are easily 50+ kinds of dumplings over here. Plus dishes that deal with leftovers...
Your expectation was correct, he is not a surgeon but an anesthesiologist. The guy who does the sleepy bye bye medication and prevents the patient from dying.

Chinese medical doctor Zhang Zhong Jing invented dumplings, during the Han Dynasty, the first golden age of Chinese history. Hanfu (Han Chinese dynastic costumes), Hanzi (Han Chinese characters), and Han Chinese (largest ethnic group in the world), all got their names from the Han Dynasty, the contemporary of Roman Empire. Han Dynasty also saw the opening of the Silk Road to trade with the Romans on the other end.
You can get little vegetable pastries in supermarkets where I live that are the same shape as 'mouse' dumplings, and I always think they look like tiny stegosauruses.
My favorite was probably something that would get me thrown out of any true dumpling place. It was like jalapeno popper dumplings. The jalapenos were stuffed with a traditional filling, pork or, I think the other one was chicken, and then they were wrapped in dumpling wrappers and steamed or fried, depending on the order. They were really delicious.
My opinion on this stuff is use what you have and what you like. Some people always hate on others and say, “This isn’t real (insert cuisine) food, because you’re using the wrong ingredients and cookware!” If you can’t find the traditional ingredients or cookware where you live, alter it to what you can use. Every classic recipe was first created by someone who tried something new. If it tastes good, who cares?
@@D71219ONEeah! Like, the whole 'this isn't real [cuisine]' presupposes anyway that everyone's goal is gonna be authenticity. Someone trying to pass off a reinvented recipe as authentic does suck, if they're not part of that culture - but not everyone's trying to do that. Lots of people are just trying to enjoy food that works well with their personal sensory preferences.
If you want a great video on how to actually Fold dumplings in different ways, Souped Up Recipes here on RUclips has one called ‘24 Ways to Wrap Dumplings’ in a much slower, step-by-step tutorial. But this video was really interesting too!
you can't use the same filling for all the dumplings. Guotie(锅贴 ), for example, is exclusively meat, shuijiao(水饺) aka jiaozi(饺子) is usully a combination of meat and vegetables, and wontons are almost always exclusively vegetables, unless you are making tiny wontons, which are only meat. Also, when you wrap the shui jiao in a different way, you can't keep calling it a shui jiao, you need to change the filling and call it a wonton. With dan jiao(蛋饺), you absolutely can't use any filling, it is pretty much only meat. xia jiao(虾饺) cannot be wrapped like that, it is traditionally wrapped simply like a ball with the excess dough stuck to one side. When eating xiao long bao, Shanghainese people usually dunk the entire dumpling into the shallow dish of black vinegar to cool it down(the vinegar flavor will not be too strong), and then bit a hole and just eat the entire thing in one bite, since the soup should have cooled down by then
Am wondering what type of wheat/flour was used for traditional dumplings, like when they were first created? Before the introduction of selective breeding and modern wheat.
