Notice the look of concentration.

Snacking on the uncooked dumpling skins is not recommended.

Step one: Carefully wet the rim (no snickering, please).

Step two: Gently stuff your dumpling (I heard that!).

Step three: Fold over, just so.

Step four: Giver 'er a little pinch for good measure.

Step five: Optional pletes make you look like you know what's what (for a foreigner)...and, huzzah! Dumpling Ho!
