Light, pliable homemade dumpling dough made from scratch — the foundation for potstickers, gyoza, wontons, and pierogies. Simple to make, endlessly versatile.
In a mixing bowl, add flour and salt, mix well then make a hole in center of flour.
Add water in center of flour and begin to mix with rubber spatula.
The dough will come together. Continue to work dough until is does not stick to the sides of the bowl.
Once you get a tacky but non stick texture to your spatula, remove and place on a lightly floured board.
Begin to knead the dough for about two minutes creating a ball as smooth as you can knead it.
Set aside with a damp towel for 20 minutes or more before using.
When ready to use, cut the dough in half.
Roll into two strips about 14- 16 inches long and about ½ thickness.
Then cut dough strips about ½-¾ nuggets.
Roll each piece in your palm, place on a floured counter and poke a hole in center.
Begin to roll each dough round with a rolling pin turned and flouring dough if needed. You need to keep turning dough 90 degrees on both sides. Until you reach about a 3 inch diameter. Feel free to fill it with choice of filling.
This is a simple dough recipe which you can create a various amounts of fillings to insert into the dumpling dough. Feel free to message me with any questions of needs for your personal needs.
