Today I am one of my all-time favorite dumpling recipes. Soup dumplings are meat and soup-filled dumplings that hit all the right notes. This is another comfort food recipe that takes time, but it so worth it!

8 oz (227 g) uncooked pork skin

weighed measurements for the dough will be more accurate

MaZEEZaM: Really nice recipe, I m not sure if you have access to them as I do but as an option to the whole chicken and pork skin for the broth, we, in Australia can readily buy in our supermarkets, chicken wings and necks which are super cheap and most importantly, packed full of the gelatine which btw is super healthy for everyone. I prefer using these rather than a whole chicken as in order to get a really tasty stock, you need to simmer the chicken quite a long time and the flavour is absorbed into the stock liquid but for exactly this reason, I really don t like the now often tasteless chicken meat. Obviously whole chickens are very expensive and not eating the meat would be very wasteful so instead of whole chicken, I prefer the necks and wings. Date: 2021-06-02
