Make Way for Dumplings

In this playful cookbook, Margaret and Irene Li welcome home cooks into their wide world of dumplings. With encouraging step-by-step instructions, supported by videos linked to QR codes, they teach home cooks how to make dough from scratch (and in fun colors), prepare fillings, and master different folds. They include recipes for beloved classics and imaginative incarnations alike, complete with dipping-sauce pairings-then offer up ways of including dumplings in salads, soups, curries, and so much more. Toss deep-fried ginger chicken dumplings into a mango avocado salad, add chili wontons to a flexible hot-and-sour soup, or nestle spiced chickpea potato dumplings into a butter paneer sauce. With vibrant photography and smart strategies, Make Way for Dumplings will empower cooks of all levels to start a dumpling stash, whether homemade or from the grocery store, ready to whip up into a meal at any time of day.
