Description
Ghoulishly cute, and totally tender and delicious! These ghost-shaped steamed dumplings are wrapped with an easy hot water dough that's commonly used for the popular Chinese dim sum dish called har gow. Traditionally these kinds of dumplings feature a shrimp filling, but here we use ground chicken to keep them as close to ghostly white as possible. When shopping, look for ground chicken with a high percentage of dark meat to ensure the filling stays juicy and moist. Although the dough is a bit fragile to work with, you can use a thin scrap of excess dough to patch any holes as you work; once steamed, any patching will mostly disappear and the ghostly treats will be no less delicious. While the dumplings can certainly be enjoyed on their own, soy sauce and a touch of chili crisp makes for a particularly tasty dip.
