Har Gow, Dim Sum Shrimp Dumplings (虾饺)
Har Gow! Probably one of the most popular Dim Sum dishes in the world, this shrimp dumpling uses wheat starch in order to have a chewy, translucent wrapper.
While making Dim Sum at home is almost universally an intense process, this dish undeniably takes some skill. Making the wrapper's tough, so unless you're a professional pastry chef don't feel discouraged if you can't quite get the Har Gow on your first try!

**INGREDIENTS FOR THE SKIN (enough to make 30 shrimp dumplings)**
- 6 ounces (174 grams) of wheat starch (澄粉) [Amazon Link:
- 1.5 ounce (43 grams) of cornstarch
- 1/4 tsp of salt
- 1 tsp of vegetable oil
- 6.5 ounces (184 grams) of hot water
**INGREDIENTS FOR THE FILLING**
- 10 ounces (283 grams) of peeled shrimp
- 8 ounces (226 grams) of ground pork
- 1/2 cup of minced baby bamboo shoot (笋丁) [Native Forest Bamboo Shoots:
- 1/2 cup of minced carrot
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp of grated ginger
- 1 tsp of grated garlic
- 1/2 tsp of salt
- 2 tsp of sesame oil
- 1 tsp of sugar
- 1 tbsp of soy sauce
- 1/4 cup of water
**STEP BY STEP**
- First, let’s make the filling. 10 ounces of peeled shrimp - use half of it first. Press it down to make it into sort of paste. Then roughly mince it. You can use a food processor to grind it. But in this way, the texture of the filling will come out better.
- Put the shrimp paste in a mixing bowl. Add 8 ounce of ground pork. Crack in 1 egg. The egg will help to keep the filling moist. Next is the seasoning - 1 tsp of grated ginger, 1 tsp of grated garlic, 2 tsp of sesame oil, 1 tsp of sugar, 1 tbsp of soy sauce, 1/4 cup of water, 1/2 tsp of salt.
- I am using a stander mixer to help me mix the filling. Let it run for about 5 minutes at medium-high speed. This is very helpful. As the machine spins, the meat starts pulling away from the side of the bowl. That means the protein in the meat are being developed which will make your filling turn out with a better texture. Personally, I think this is an important step to create a juicy filling. If you don’t have a stander mixer, you can also do this by your hand. You just mix your filling within 1 direction for 8-10 minutes until you get a sticky gooey consistency.
- Continue adding the rest of the ingredients - 1/2 cup of minced baby bamboo shoot, 1/2 cup of minced carrot, and the other half of the shrimp. Mix everything until well combined. Set it in the fridge.
- Make the wrapper. You need 6 ounces of wheat starch, not wheat flour. They have a totally different texture. Wheat starch is the key to make the beautiful transparent wrapper. Continue adding 1.5 ounces of cornstarch and 1/4 tsp of salt.
- Give that a mix then slowly add in 6.5 ounces of hot water in batches; as hot as possible. At the same time, use chopsticks to stir it. Try to mix it evenly. Then cover it with a plastic film immediately. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
- 5 minutes later, you can start kneading it. It will take about few minutes to make it into a smooth dough. Add 1 tsp of vegetable oil and keep kneading it until the oil is evenly mixed.
- Cut it into 4 pieces; cover the rest with plastic film while you are work 1 piece of dough first.
- Shape one piece into a long even strip. Divide it into small doughs. Make it into a ball shape and flatten it. Roll it into a thin wrapper. The size is about 6 cm across.
- By the way, it is a lot of work to make these transparent dumpling skins. It is totally ok to use regular dumpling skin. But it will look different and taste little different. Just be aware of that
- Put in about 1 tbsp of filling; make sure there is at least 1 pieces of shrimp in it. Fold the wrapper in half. Pinch the middle to stick together. Start from 1 side to make pleats. Then do the other side. It is pretty easy. Once you are done, put it on top of a piece of carrot to prevent sticky.
- Now that the dumplings are freshly made, put the steamer above boiling water. Steam it on high heat for 5 minutes. And you are done.
Dim Sum Prawn and Chives Vegetable Crystal Dumpling | 韭菜粿的做法

As the name suggest, the texture of the dumpling skin is translucent, tender and slightly chewy. The only difference is the filling. Har Gow's filling is mainly with prawns.

This is a special dim sum dumpling because the wrapper is made with taro. After deep frying, the outside will puff up into a beautiful delicate crust, while the middle layer maintains the soft and creamy texture. It is like a crispy, flaky mashed potato stuffed with a savory filling - very interesting. Although this dumpling is mind-blowing, the recipe is complicated and challenging.
