[wjmortician]

You might want to get out of the habit of referring to the food items as "these guys".

[cheftomm]

You are sooo awesome! I am a sixteen year old and i want to go to a culinary school. you are so helpful and make things easier to understand. you're my hero

[misslucylulu1]

Thanks chef Tomm, that was awesome. I'm making these on the weekend and have been searching for a good demonstration on how to fold them. So glad I found your video. Very clear and well filmed, I'm now quietly confident that my potstickers are going to rock! :)

[cheftomm]

I'm glad to hear the videos helped you. There are more shows and recipes on my website. If you get a chance maybe you can take some pics of you and the potstickers and upload them to my blog.

I was always taught to use a cast iron skillet instead of stainless steel and use vegatable oil.

For those interested, I have found Yank Sing to have a very good chili oil that can be found in grocery stores to be very flavorful.

[cheftomm]

Thanks for writing. I have never heard of a cast iron pot being used for this. The chili oil looks interesting. I will try to find it out here.

[Oneness100]

Yes, there is a Dim Sum house that makes great homemade Potstickers that I used to go to and they always used cast iron skillets. They would simply put some vegatable oil to coat the bottom of the skillet and then add water after the initial browning. They would add a little oil after the water disappaited and then brown the bottoms a second time. It's kind of an art in terms of timing, but they come out perfect when one has the timing perfected.

[cheftomm]

That's pretty cool. Thanks for sharing!

[ChefThia]

Thank you for making it so easy! I will be trying yours as my first and last attempt was a disaster - yes i was making them at home.

[cheftomm]

Let me know how it turns out. I hope you have great success. I may take a few times to get the hang of it but you will get there.

[Iracel03]

umm this would hav been perfect if u actually gave the Quantities of Ingredients :[

[arthurandroid]

The recipes (and quantities) are at the website, as mentioned in the video.

[cheftomm]

I use canola or any neutral flavor oil,  sorry it took so long to get back to you.

[getmorefragz]

Great tutorial. Good show Chef Tomm.

[cheftomm]

Hello Karen, Thanks for watching the show. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I have alot of shows on here and am adding more all the time. Thanks again for watching, please pass it on toyour friends.

[karenmdc]

wow chef tomm you really did a great job. it seemed easy for you but it was so hard for me. i was the one who made this in class today and i made the dough from scratch i didn't have any idea on how it's supposed to be like thank God it turned out well. i could have watched your video before doing it so that it would be easier but i just found this today :(

thanks chef tomm!

[cheftomm]

Hello, Thanks for watching my show. Either way is fine. I normally make alot and cook some and freeze the rest. The faster you freeze them the better. Thanks again fir wathing.

[AJM0381]

Can you freeze these after making them, or do they need to be made right away?

[cheftomm]

You will love making these. It is pretty quick and easy. Please pass my site onto your friends.  Thanks for watching.

Tomm

[Naid785]

[superturtle101]

[cheftomm]

I love pot stickers too. Did you like the show?

Please pass it on. Thanks..

Tomm

[superturtle101]

[Jfiore10]

Fine Job Chef Tomm!

[cheftomm]

Thank you! Please tell your friends and family about my site.

[brenthoser99]

like Pierogi one could throw them back into oil once they are steamed to crisp the outside. Ya know its sad that Asian restaurant now a days buy there food from warehouse manufacturers. all th ey do is buy a bag and re-heat them. I would like to go to a restaurant and actually have hand made dumplings/pot stickers and pay an extra couple dollars. Very nice video, thanks for the tips.

[cheftomm]

I agree 100% that is a big part of why I am putting these shows up. Most people think these items are so difficult to make but with a little practice you can master them all. Thanks for watching my show!

[lizardman458]

are they crunchy?

[cheftomm]

No, they aren't crunchy. Do you like them that way?

[MikeofWyoming]

The wrappers! I want to know how to make WRAPPERS!! Buying anything at a small town gocery store in Wyoming is spartan at best.

[konagal]

YUMMY !

Dude, NIIICE!
