Let's Make Dumplings! includes dumpling history and lore; a master folding guide that familiarizes readers with popular styles like the pleated crescent of a potsticker or the four-pointed star of a crab rangoon; and a series of cooking directions to choose from, such as steaming or pan-frying. The recipes range from savory (Beef and Kimchi Mandu) to sweet (Custard-filled Baozi), classics (Pork and Cabbage Potstickers) to riffs (Maple, Bacon, and Egg Dumplings).

Whether it is the family-style eating experience-stacked plates and steamer baskets filled with succulent shumai and plump xiaolongbao-or the interactive process of working together to fold hundreds of gyoza for a celebration, Let's Make Dumplings! captures the deep level of connection that dumplings bring to any gathering and shows you how to recreate it in your own home.
