WANT MOUTHWATERING, WELL READ BELOW…
The dumpling filling has all the classic components of a cheeseburger: beef, american cheese, onion, and seasonings create a sturdy foundation, while a mixture of ketchup, mayo, and yellow mustard gives it that iconic “special” taste.
When the dumplings are steamed, the cheese melts inside to create an oozy pool of sauce. But we prefer them pan-seared, which leaves each bottom crisp with lacy edges and gives a taste reminiscent of smashed burgers. Cooked this way, the cheese adds a richness to the filling and tastes like the best versions of your childhood cheeseburgers.
Sesame seeds are sprinkled on at the end and cling to the tender dumpling wrappers, resembling a studded sesame bun.
