From the Test Kitchen

These delectable dumplings are packed full of delicious umami flavor. We’re making our filling with shrimp, shiitake mushrooms, Chinese black bean sauce (made from fermented black soybeans) and traditional aromatics. (After rehydrating the dried mushrooms for the filling, we’re using a bit of the infused water to finish cooking our dumplings.) A fragrant dipping sauce balances these savory flavors with the sweet, citrusy combination of soy glaze and Meyer lemon—famed for its mellow acidity and fruity aroma.
