Recipe: Pot Sticker Dumplings and Soy Vinegar Sauce https://dinnertrade.com/2011/04/01/recipe-pot-sticker-dumplings-and-soy-vinegar-sauce/ https://dinnertrade.com/2011/04/01/recipe-pot-sticker-dumplings-and-soy-vinegar-sauce/#respond Fri, 01 Apr 2011 18:22:47 +0000 http://dinnertrade.com/?p=696 From Martha Stewart’s Website

pot sticker dumplingsIngredients

Soy-Vinegar Dipping Sauce

  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 whole scallion, trimmed and sliced
  • 1 hot green chili, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons water

Dumplings

  • 1/2 pound ground turkey, chicken, or pork (if using poultry, add 1 teaspoon peanut oil to the mixture)
  • 1 cup finely chopped bok choy
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1 large egg white
  • 36 dumpling wrappers
  • Peanut oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the dipping sauce. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the turkey, bok choy, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt. Stir in the egg white.
  3. Working with 6 at a time, lay down the dumpling wrappers on a work surface. Spoon 1 teaspoon of filling onto each one. Lightly wet the edge of each wrapper with water. Fold the dough over and pinch around the edges. This is easiest done by picking up each dumpling and pinching around the edges with thumb and forefinger. Place on a baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap to keep the dumplings from drying out. Repeat until all filling is used. (Freeze any dumplings that will not be cooked immediately. After they are frozen, transfer them to a resealable plastic bag or wrap in plastic.)
  4. To cook the dumplings, heat a large skillet and swirl some oil around to coat the pan. Add a single layer of pot stickers. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes (2 minutes longer if frozen), until they begin to turn golden on the underside. Don’t move them. Add 1/4 cup of water to the pan and cover immediately. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and the dumplings release from the pan. Serve immediately with the dipping sauce.

sausage bread stuffingIngredients

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound sweet Italian sausage, casing removed
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 celery stalks, sliced on the bias
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 heaping tablespoon minced fresh sage leaves, or 1 teaspoon crumbled dried sage
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 whole loaf bread, crusts removed, cubed (5 to 6 cups)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon coarse salt (depends on saltiness of sausage)

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet, add the olive oil, and cook the sausage, stirring and breaking it up until browned, about 8 minutes. Remove to a plate.
  2. Add the butter to the skillet and when it melts, add the onion and celery. Saute until the onion is translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and sage and cook for 1 minute. Pour in the wine and deglaze the pan, stirring up any browned bits with a wooden spoon.
  3. Add the cubed bread to the mixture and toast and turn a bit. Stir in the cooked sausage, the chicken broth, and salt to taste and cook for 1 minute. Cool the mixture. (This can be done quickly by spreading the mixture on a rimmed cookie sheet and chilling it in the refrigerator.)
  4. Stuff the mixture into the cavity and neck of a cooked turkey, or place it in a large buttered baking dish and bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes, or until browned on top and heated through.

turkey brineIngredients

Brining Liquid

  • 2 quarts water (at the very least)
  • 1 1/2 cups coarse salt
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 large red onion, sliced
  • 1 head of garlic, smashed (8 to 10 cloves)
  • 2 bottles white wine

Brine Add-Ins (Optional)

  • 2 tablespoons crushed black peppercorns
  • 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 teaspoons dried coriander
  • 1 tablespoon dried fennel
  • 1 tablespoon dried cumin
  • 1 whole cinnamon stick
  • 5 whole cloves
  • 4 bay leaves
  • 4 large sprigs of fresh sage

Turkey

  • 1 16-pound turkey (approximate)
  • 1 Sausage Bread Stuffing
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a 2-quart pot, bring 2 quart of water to a boil with the salt and sugar, stirring occasionally until the salt and sugar have dissolved. Cool completely and place in a clean 5-gallon bucket with the onion, garlic, wine, and any of the optional spices or herbs. Stir in the remaining water completely to combine. Add the turkey. Cover and store in a cold place for at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours. Turn bird occasionally.
  2. Drain the turkey, pat dry, and bring to room temperature an hour before cooking. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  3. Stuff the cavity and neck of the bird with the stuffing. Truss or tie the cavity closed. Tuck the wings under the breast and place in the roasting pan. Rub the bird all over with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast the bird for 2 to 3 hours, or until an instant-read thermometer in the thickest part of a leg reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit. After 1 hour, baste every 30 minutes with pan juices. After 2 hours, lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Let the turkey rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.
Cook’s Note
Special equipment: 5-gallon bucket (for brining), trussing supplies or needle and string, roasting pan. Note: Trussing a turkey closes the cavity by either sewing the skin over the stuffing or sealing it altogether with skewers.

Recipe: Swedish Meatballs https://dinnertrade.com/2010/03/30/recipe-swedish-meatballs/ https://dinnertrade.com/2010/03/30/recipe-swedish-meatballs/#respond Wed, 31 Mar 2010 02:38:53 +0000 http://dinnertrade.com/?p=604

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef chuck
  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 3 cups panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups canned reduced-sodium beef broth
  • grape or current jelly, cooked egg noodles, chopped parsley, for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 475 degrees. In a large bowl, combine beef, pork, panko, 1/2 cup milk, eggs, garlic, 1 tablespoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and allspice. Mix just until combined.
  2. Using a rounded 1-tablespoon measure for each, form mixture into meatballs (you should have about 48). Place meatballs onto two rimmed baking sheets; bake until golden brown and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through.
  3. Meanwhile, make sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium-high. Add flour; cook, whisking, 1 minute (do not let darken). Gradually whisk in remaining cup milk and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer until sauce has slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
  4. Using a slotted spoon, add meatballs to bowl with sauce; gently toss to combine. Serve as an appetizer, on toothpicks, with jelly on the side; or as a main, over noodles, garnished with parsley, with jelly on the side.

Quick Notes

Helpful Hint To Freeze: Divide meatballs and sauce among airtight containers; freeze up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in refrigerator (or place containers under cold running water to release frozen blocks). Reheat, thinning sauce with water if necessary.

Cooking time (duration): 40
