Pot Stickers

Store cooked pot stickers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. For longer storage, freeze uncooked or cooked pot stickers in a single layer on a baking sheet until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag. Reheat from frozen.

For extra crispy bottoms, use a well-seasoned non-stick pan and don't overcrowd it.

After pan-frying, add just enough water to cover the bottom of the pan and immediately cover with a lid to steam the dumplings.

Serve with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
