NOTES

I have a variable temperature kettle that I use to heat the water to the right temperature. You can mix cold water with boiling hot water to get the same results. Note that you'll likely need more cold water than boiling hot water. You can also run your tap at the hottest setting and use that hot water.

In the video, I mention that the dough pieces should be between 12 to 14g for medium-sized dumplings and 14g to 16g for larger dumplings. Those are measurements that I like when I'm using the dough to make potstickers. I want the wrappers to be slightly thicker so that they can withstand the heat during the pan-frying process. It's a matter of personal preference, really. If you are making steamed or boiled dumplings, you'll probably want the dumplings skins to be thinner. For example, with xiaolongbao (小籠包/soup dumplings), I've seen many recipes recommend the wrappers to be about 9 to 10 grams each because you want the dumpling skins to be very thin.

Also, I'm rolling out the wrappers until they're about 3.5 to 3.75 inches in diameter.

If you don't have rolling pins at all, you can use a jar to roll out the wrappers. You can also roll out sheets with a pasta machine and use a cookie cutter to cut out the shapes. The cookie cutter should be at least 3.5 inches in diameter
