Frozen shuijiao (water boiled dumpling) and XLB roundup (SFBA)

Thanks! It’s great to hear that Dumpling City sells fresh ones, not just frozen.

I’ve been pleased with a variation on that multiple boil technique (see discussion on another thread).

The following has worked well with dumplings from Pan Kee and Yummy Dumpling:

  • bring 4 quarts of water to a boil
  • add dumplings, stir occasionally as you return to a low boil (a rolling boil would destroy dumplings)
  • add 2 cups of cold water when a low boil has been reached
  • bring back to low boil, stir occasionally as you return to a low boil
  • drain
