• rice vinegar
• black pepper
• sesame oil
• gochugaru
• soy sauce
• ginger
• garlic
• chive
• green onion
• ground pork
• water
• all-purpose flour

Instructions

1. 1 Combine flour, water, and ½ teaspoon salt in a bowl; mix with a wooden spoon until dough comes together in a sticky ball. Sprinkle in more flour as needed and knead by hand until soft and supple. Wrap in plastic wrap; rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
2. 2 Combine ground pork, green onions, chives, garlic, and ginger in a bowl. Season with 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 4 teaspoons salt, 2 teaspoons gochugaru, sesame oil, and black pepper; mix using two forks until just combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap; refrigerate until ready to use.
3. 3 Whisk vinegar, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon gochugaru into chicken broth in a bowl; set aside.
4. 4 Divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll 1 piece into a rope about the thickness of your thumb; flatten into a long, thin band about 3 inches wide using a rolling pin, flouring only as needed. Dust top with flour; flip over. Dip your fingers in some water and lightly brush the surface until slightly sticky.
5. 5 Arrange about ¼ pork filling down middle of dough about the thickness of your thumb using moistened fingers. Fold entire length of dough over pork filling, pressing down to seal dough. Trim excess dough if desired. Dust a little more flour on top; flip over so seam side is on the bottom. Divide into 16 pieces using the edge of your hand; cut with a bench scraper. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
6. 6 Heat oil in a pan over high heat. Cook dumplings, in batches, seam-sides up, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Add a portion of broth; bring to a boil. Cover and continue to boil until pork is no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Serve dumplings in broth in bowls.

Ingredients

• ✓ kosher salt
• ground pork
• garlic
• green onion
• ginger
• soy sauce
• soy sauce
• sesame oil
• cayenne pepper
• green cabbage
• all-purpose flour
• water
• rice vinegar
• soy sauce
• vegetable oil
• water

Instructions

1. 1 To make the filling: Place ground pork, green onions, garlic, ginger, 2 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon soy sauce, sesame oil, and cayenne in a mixing bowl. Top with chopped green cabbage. Mix with fork until thoroughly combined. Tamp down lightly; cover with plastic. Refrigerate until chilled, about an hour.
2. 2 To make the dough: Place 2 ½ cups of flour and kosher salt in a mixing bowl. Slowly pour in hot water. Stir with a wooden spoon until mixture forms a shaggy dough. Flour your hands and transfer dough to a work surface. Knead dough until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 3 to 5 minutes. If dough seems too sticky, sprinkle with a bit more flour, up to an additional 1/2 cup, and continue to knead. Wrap dough ball in plastic, and let it rest about 30 minutes.
3. 3 When dough has rested, divide into 4 equal pieces. Cover 3 pieces with a dish cloth while you work the first piece. Roll into a small log about the thickness of a thumb, about 3/4 inch. Divide each log into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin 3 ½-inch circle on a lightly floured surface to form the pot sticker wrappers. Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.
4. 4 Lightly moisten the edges of a wrapper with your wet finger. Place a small scoop of the ground pork mixture onto the center of a wrapper. Fold up the 2 sides and pinch together in the center. Pinch together the remaining edges, forming "pleats" along one side. Tap the pot sticker on the work surface to slightly flatten the bottom; form a slight curve in it so it stands upright in the pan. Transfer to a well-floured plate. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
5. 5 To make the dipping sauce: Mix seasoned rice vinegar and soy sauce together in a small mixing bowl. Set aside.
6. 6 Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Place about 6 or 7 pot stickers in the hot oil, flat-side down. Cook until bottoms are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Drizzle in water and quickly cover the pan; steam for 3 minutes. Uncover; reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking until water evaporates and bottoms are browned and crunchy, 1 or 2 minutes. Transfer to a warm serving dish. Repeat with remaining pot stickers.
7. 7 Serve dumplings with dipping sauce.
