This undone dumpling soup meets you where you are.
, her monthly column, she’s sharing whoa-worthy dinners you can get on the table like *snaps fingers* that.
I love a repetitive, detail-oriented culinary task: projects that are not so much cooking as edible arts and crafts. Dumpling making, in particular, marries my affinity for bite-size things with a meticulous but meditative process—one that requires most of my attention and dexterity. Watching a sheet pan fill up with row after row of stuffed, crimped babies fills me with utter calm, a type-A pride-slash-comfort.
But not every day can be a dumpling-making day. Some days my focus is elsewhere, and hard as I try, I can’t get my hands into the rhythm of folding, pinching, and sealing. My stomach starts to growl, and the prospect of dedicating any more time than is absolutely necessary to dinner is out of the question. I want ameal, not something that requires an energy level I cannot muster. And, because I do think it’s possible to have it all, I still would somehow like that dinner to be dumplings.
