Expert Tips

  • tip 1

    Measure out the ingredients for your dumplings by spooning dry ingredients into a standard measuring cup, then leveling the top with a straight-edge metal spatula or knife. Don’t scoop or pack the ingredients down.
  • tip 2

    Be sure the broth is bubbling before dropping in the dumplings so the bottoms cook well at the start. Lower the heat to finish slowly cooking the dumplings completely, so they aren't soggy and doughy in the centers.
  • tip 3

    Stir in a teaspoon of your favorite dried herb into the dry mixture before adding the oil and water, or sprinkle the dumplings with some grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
  • tip 4

    Drop your dumplings by spoonfuls into boiling broth making sure they are consistent in size to ensure even cooking. Oversized dumplings tend not to hold their shape and fall apart while cooking.
  • tip 5

    You can easily make a creamier broth by adding a little cream or milk to your broth.

Easy Homemade Dumplings (2024)

FAQs

What are the 3 main ways to cook dumplings? ›

Dumplings can be steamed (zhēngjiǎo, 蒸饺), pan-fried (jiānjiǎo, 煎饺), or boiled (shuǐjiǎo, 水饺, literal translation: water dumpling). They are then served with a dipping sauce, like Chinese black vinegar or our favorite dumpling sauce recipe. They can also be eaten with hot pot meals or served in soup!

How to make dumplings taste better? ›

A pinch of salt seasons the dumplings and enhances the flavors of the other ingredients. Cold butter or margarine is cut into the flour mixture to bind the dry ingredients together. It also keeps the dumplings light and tender. Whole milk helps create a smooth, moist dough.

Why are my dumplings hard and not fluffy? ›

Don't Overwork the Dumpling Dough

Stir everything together until the wet and dry ingredients are combined and you don't see any more dry flour. The dough might look a little lumpy, but that's okay! Overworking the dough is one of the easiest ways to end up with tough dumplings.

How long do dumplings take to boil? ›

Carefully place the dumplings into the boiling water and boil for 20-25 minutes until they start to float. (You can boil in two batches depending on the size of your pan.) Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the water and place them on a plate. Serve hot with your preferred stew or veggies.

How to cook dumplings in a pan? ›

In a large, non-stick pan, heat 1-2 tbsp. of oil over medium heat. Place the dumplings in the pan and fry on both sides until golden brown (you will need to do this in batches). Once golden brown, add a few tablespoons of water and cover with a lid to steam for about 3-5 minutes until the pork is cooked through.

Do you cook dumplings with the lid on or off? ›

If you keep the lid on, the dumplings will end up entirely steamed, so they'll be softer and slightly wetter. If you leave the lid off, they'll crisp up more on top, and be slightly drier. I like to do a bit of both, so I'll usually leave the lid on for the first 10 minutes or so, then take it off for another 10.

Why do my dumplings fall apart when I cook them? ›

Often they burst during cooking because they have too much filling for the amount of dough. Some doughs are too dry, so the dumplings won't stay sealed. Others can be too wet and sticky and end up tearing. If the filling isn't cohesive enough, it will tumble out when you bite into it.

Should dumplings float or sink? ›

The dumplings will be completely cooked and ready when they float on the surface of the boiling water.

How do you know when homemade dumplings are done? ›

Steamed dumplings require a test so simple that the only tool you need is a toothpick! Pierce the dumpling with a toothpick and if it comes out clean, you're good to go.

Do you cook dumplings covered or uncovered first? ›

It's best to have your lid ready: Immediately add about 3 tablespoons of water to the pan, just enough to cover the base of the dumplings, then cover and cook for 3–4 minutes, or until the water has evaporated. Lift the lid and allow the dumpling to cook for another 30 seconds, to allow the bottoms to get extra crispy.

How are dumplings traditionally made? ›

Traditionally dumplings are made from twice the weight of self-raising flour to tallow, bound together by cold water to form a dough and seasoned with salt and pepper but can also be made using self-raising flour and butter. Balls of this dough are dropped into a bubbling pot of stew or soup, or into a casserole.

Can you overcook dumplings? ›

Yes, dumplings that are overcooked will begin to fall apart and disintegrate into the soup, so try to stick to the cooking time. I always use a timer.

How to make dumplings more juicy? ›

Hand-mincing meat and adding more pork belly results in the juiciest dumplings. Traditionally, some Chinese cuisine uses hand minced meat for their dishes. For example, lots of dim sum items like siu mai, pork buns, beef meatball, and more use hand minced meat to control the texture and fat content of the dish!

Why do my dumplings come out dry? ›

Cover up. As you fold your dumplings, keep them covered with a slightly damp kitchen towel. This prevents the dumplings from drying out (dry skins can split when cooked). Making fresh dumpling wrappers isn't hard when you have Hetty McKinnon to guide you.
