Alex, also known as French Guy Cooking, ( woolfel: I wouldn't feel too bad Alex. Literally it takes 1 year to get decent at making dumplings with the correct number of pleats. That's making hundreds every day. Even making gyoza takes 1 year to get the technique down. I make 500 each summer for Circus Smirkus and it always takes about 20 before my fingers remembers the motion. I make batches of 70-80 each time and freeze it.

I visited galaxy dumplings with my wife and parents-in-law in April. When Helen heard that my wife was gluten free, she came out to chat, and made gluten free soup dumplings specifically for her, as well as two complimentary gluten free dessert dumplings. They were easily the best dumplings I've ever had, and Helen really went the extra mile to make it a special meal.

For those wanting to make this. Helpful two tips that dad gave me! 1) dont take both thumbs out when folding. Always keep one of the thumbs in and then rotate using your palm and the other thumb and fore finger. 2) drop water slowly into your pork mince and mix with chopsticks to get that real dumpling texture and keep it friendly to work with

Groan! This might have been ok if you didnt employ a self imposed time limit. Really, it was crazy, with your viewers concentrating on your angst rather than the method. You might consider making these without the theatrics!

I love seeing Alex on Eater, but I feel like these shows don't do him justice. I'm used to seeing him make multiple video series to make something as perfect as he can. Not 6 hours to rush and make a dumpling

Besides matzo ball soup, is there anything better to eat for a cold than warm dumplings and broth? Chicken soup. thats so 1984. Or the previous 100 years for us Americans. Its good. But theres more out there!

You can really see the difference between eater's and alex's videos. Alex video taking is more composed. While the camera guy of eater uses too much zoom, shaky and has too much frequent transitions.

Soup Dumplings or what we call xiao Long Bao are one of the most difficult dishes to make. Most ppl struggle to even make ordinary dumplings on their first time. This guy is damn good

I appreciate Alex's earnest attempt. He's very genuine in his effort and commitment. Helen should be harsher on him, as all Asian Aunties tend to be. Tough love! :) Good job!
