Jiaozi (Chinese Dumplings)

Our latest food experiment has been to try these fun little things. We used the recipe from the World Wide Gourmet. There were options for making the dough or buying it. We bought it, then discovered that we had the wrong stuff so we ended up making it any way. The stuff we bought were these huge (~2 ft diameter), round, paper-thin, tofu wrappers. What we wanted were 4 inch round wrappers. So now we are snacking on the tofu ones. They taste pretty good in their own right.

We need to add a caveat. The picture of the Jiaozi shown above was from the web site where we picked the recipe and is not an accurate representation of the products of our kitchen.
Our apologies if you were mislead.

I was about to say - you both have mad powers of culinary symetry. I'm going to post postcards on my blog as soon as i make it behave.
