I know we had fish tacos yesterday, but our official new year's celebration happened on Sunday, making and cooking dumplings.
Our dumpling filling consisted of ground pork, onions, and chives. We actually had to look in three different grocery stores just to find ground pork. Giant Eagle only had a pound left and Whole Foods sells pork for $5.99/lb! It's a good thing I have a lot of grocery store options.
My friend also made a filling with ground turkey and carrot. It kind of reminded me of shumai.
We pan fried the pork dumplings and boiled the turkey dumplings. Everything was delicious. Next time I think I'll up the ratio of chive to pork. I love chives.
All in all, it was a successful dumpling party. I definitely want to have more of these in the future.
