Cut into about 40 segments. These will be the dumpling wrappers. Dust your workplace and the dough with more flour to prevent sticking. As you begin to roll out the wrappers, cover the dough you aren’t working with a kitchen towel. This will prevent it from drying out.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Take a rolling pin (we use one about the size of a boba straw) and roll out each piece of dough into a thin circle.

I particularly love the Northern Chinese style of doughy, plump dumplings. You can feel the handiwork in each piece, hand-rolled and adorned with perfectly imperfect dimples. At Yuanbao Jiaozi, located in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset neighborhood, it’s fun to watch the ladies in the window working steadily and skillfully to create these ingot-shaped treasures. Each dumpling is boiled to order and delivered to your table from the vat of scalding water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My mom, who grew up in Taiwan, was delighted by Yuanbao Jiaozi’s unique offering of seafood dumplings during our dinner. Standouts included sole fish and shiitake mushrooms, sole fish and green pepper, as well as the shrimp and zucchini dumplings—all filling combinations I had never come across in my food expeditions in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I can’t order dumplings without a side of noodle soup. Nothing like carb on carb! For this visit, I ordered the pickled Chinese cabbage and beef noodle soup, whose bright, acidic flavors and beefy broth complemented the dumplings’ more subtle profile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What I love about Yuanbao Jiaozi’s dumplings is that firm, doughy consistency. In Italy, this prized texture is described as “al dente.” In Taiwan, it’s referred to as “Q,”, pronounced like the letter, often used to describe the ideal \"toothiness\" of boba or stewed beef tendon. Well, Yuanbao Jiaozi’s dumplings definitely have that “Q.” Dipped in a bit of the chili oil provided in jars at each table, with a steaming side of noodle soup—that’s pure comfort to me.—\u003cem>Vic Chin, Coordinating Producer, Check, Please!

A holiday dessert tradition that spread from Italy to East Africa and South America, panettone’s tall, trapezoidal boxes hang like decorations on Christmas across many homes around the world. Lately, instead of leaving a trail of dried fruits on my plate, I opt for pandoro, a cousin to panettone that features a similarly egg-enriched, fermented dough without any interruptions from lifeless fruits. Finished off with a dusting of sugar on its distinct triangular ridges, pandoro is a sight to behold. (Some cut the bread horizontally and stack it to resemble a snowy Christmas tree.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pandoro and panettone’s appeal live in their airy, soft texture, which is achieved through the sweet bread’s patient rising period. Both breads pair well with coffee and tea, and absorb whipped mascarpone and other toppings especially well when toasted. Never a cloying dessert, pandoro is balanced in its sugar—a satisfying sweet that doesn’t leave you sluggish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>May it be through the local East African population or the region’s European inclinations, Bay Area grocery stores seem to always carry panettone and its different iterations from December into the new year. Some years back, I noticed Trader Joe’s offered a chocolate panettone. Though markedly sweeter, chocolate is much more acceptable than dried fruit in my opinion. One can also find the holiday sweet bread at various Eritrean and Ethiopian specialty food stores like Zion Market on Oakland’s Telegraph Avenue. Lucky for me, the variety means I never have to eat around raisins and candied oranges.—\u003cem>Ruth Gebreyesus, Food Reporter and Visual Arts Columnist\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.instagram.com/p/B6i09QQBxXM/\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Cha La Pov at Nyum Bai\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Since its brick-and-mortar opening in 2018, Cambodian eatery Nyum Bai has become one of the most well reviewed restaurants in the Bay Area, collecting a Bib Gourmand pick from Michelin and a semifinalist nod from the James Beard Awards along the way. Even with this fanfare, chef Nite Yun’s restaurant, tucked in a corner of the complex across from Fruitvale BART station, continues to offer affordable and delightful dishes like cha la pov, a stir fried kabocha squash dish with ground chicken and eggs, topped with chrysanthemum and scallions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Served with a bowl of rice, the plate featured a mix of ingredients that I hadn’t seen together. Yet it delivered a familiar joy—a balanced offering of starch and protein, lightly sweet but decidedly savory. I’m sometimes too lazy to cook kabocha at home because its shell can be more work than a softer squash, so I was happy to encounter the seasonally appropriate gourd at Nyum Bai. And though I can’t say I detected the chrysanthemum in the dish, the scallions provided a bright zing—both visually and in terms of taste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The part of cha la pov I’m still thinking about is the ground chicken: clumped together by the egg, it provided a really satisfying bite.

I particularly love the Northern Chinese style of doughy, plump dumplings. You can feel the handiwork in each piece, hand-rolled and adorned with perfectly imperfect dimples. At Yuanbao Jiaozi, located in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset neighborhood, it’s fun to watch the ladies in the window working steadily and skillfully to create these ingot-shaped treasures. Each dumpling is boiled to order and delivered to your table from the vat of scalding water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My mom, who grew up in Taiwan, was delighted by Yuanbao Jiaozi’s unique offering of seafood dumplings during our dinner. Standouts included sole fish and shiitake mushrooms, sole fish and green pepper, as well as the shrimp and zucchini dumplings—all filling combinations I had never come across in my food expeditions in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I can’t order dumplings without a side of noodle soup. Nothing like carb on carb! For this visit, I ordered the pickled Chinese cabbage and beef noodle soup, whose bright, acidic flavors and beefy broth complemented the dumplings’ more subtle profile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What I love about Yuanbao Jiaozi’s dumplings is that firm, doughy consistency. In Italy, this prized texture is described as “al dente.” In Taiwan, it’s referred to as “Q,”, pronounced like the letter, often used to describe the ideal \"toothiness\" of boba or stewed beef tendon. Well, Yuanbao Jiaozi’s dumplings definitely have that “Q.” Dipped in a bit of the chili oil provided in jars at each table, with a steaming side of noodle soup—that’s pure comfort to me.—\u003cem>Vic Chin, Coordinating Producer, Check, Please!

A holiday dessert tradition that spread from Italy to East Africa and South America, panettone’s tall, trapezoidal boxes hang like decorations on Christmas across many homes around the world. Lately, instead of leaving a trail of dried fruits on my plate, I opt for pandoro, a cousin to panettone that features a similarly egg-enriched, fermented dough without any interruptions from lifeless fruits. Finished off with a dusting of sugar on its distinct triangular ridges, pandoro is a sight to behold. (Some cut the bread horizontally and stack it to resemble a snowy Christmas tree.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pandoro and panettone’s appeal live in their airy, soft texture, which is achieved through the sweet bread’s patient rising period. Both breads pair well with coffee and tea, and absorb whipped mascarpone and other toppings especially well when toasted. Never a cloying dessert, pandoro is balanced in its sugar—a satisfying sweet that doesn’t leave you sluggish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>May it be through the local East African population or the region’s European inclinations, Bay Area grocery stores seem to always carry panettone and its different iterations from December into the new year. Some years back, I noticed Trader Joe’s offered a chocolate panettone. Though markedly sweeter, chocolate is much more acceptable than dried fruit in my opinion. One can also find the holiday sweet bread at various Eritrean and Ethiopian specialty food stores like Zion Market on Oakland’s Telegraph Avenue. Lucky for me, the variety means I never have to eat around raisins and candied oranges.—\u003cem>Ruth Gebreyesus, Food Reporter and Visual Arts Columnist\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"instagramLink","attributes":{"named":{"instagramId":"B6i09QQBxXM"},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003ch2>Cha La Pov at Nyum Bai\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Since its brick-and-mortar opening in 2018, Cambodian eatery Nyum Bai has become one of the most well reviewed restaurants in the Bay Area, collecting a Bib Gourmand pick from Michelin and a semifinalist nod from the James Beard Awards along the way. Even with this fanfare, chef Nite Yun’s restaurant, tucked in a corner of the complex across from Fruitvale BART station, continues to offer affordable and delightful dishes like cha la pov, a stir fried kabocha squash dish with ground chicken and eggs, topped with chrysanthemum and scallions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Served with a bowl of rice, the plate featured a mix of ingredients that I hadn’t seen together. Yet it delivered a familiar joy—a balanced offering of starch and protein, lightly sweet but decidedly savory. I’m sometimes too lazy to cook kabocha at home because its shell can be more work than a softer squash, so I was happy to encounter the seasonally appropriate gourd at Nyum Bai. And though I can’t say I detected the chrysanthemum in the dish, the scallions provided a bright zing—both visually and in terms of taste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The part of cha la pov I’m still thinking about is the ground chicken: clumped together by the egg, it provided a really satisfying bite.

The neighborhood is known best for being where there’s a rare traffic circle, Adobe offices and Zynga headquarters. The flagship of the group, Omakase, is a serene, exquisite sushi venue where a meal clocks in at a $150 minimum. A few steps down the formality latter, Okane is the group’s izakaya that really is less izakaya and more just all parts of Japanese cuisine. Now, there’s Dumpling Time, even further towards the casual side. You could hear a pin drop at Omakase.

A version filled “tom yum-style” with shrimp and pork belly is even more riveting courtesy of a final coconut milk surge. They come with the skin lightly beet-stained and it neither really looks or tastes like beets are involved. For single diners, why not try the giant xiao long bao with a menu description that says you’ll need a straw? Challenge accepted if it tastes like the mini version.

The neighborhood is known best for being where there’s a rare traffic circle, Adobe offices and Zynga headquarters. The flagship of the group, Omakase, is a serene, exquisite sushi venue where a meal clocks in at a $150 minimum. A few steps down the formality latter, Okane is the group’s izakaya that really is less izakaya and more just all parts of Japanese cuisine. Now, there’s Dumpling Time, even further towards the casual side. You could hear a pin drop at Omakase. At Dumpling Time, it’s hip hop beats on the soundtrack with a bass that literally rattles the wall when you’re in the bathroom (a bathroom dance party?). \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_117600\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1632px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior.jpg\" alt=\"People lined up to get into Dumpling Time.\" width=\"1632\" height=\"1224\" class=\"size-full wp-image-117600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior.jpg 1632w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/05/dumplingtime-exterior-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1632px) 100vw, 1632px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">People lined up to get into Dumpling Time. \u003ccite>(Trevor Felch)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The Omakase Group should get immense credit for not riding the trend waves.

The regular pork soup filled version aren’t quite as transcendent texture-wise as Din Tai Fung’s esteemed version. Still, they’re the best version in the city of San Francisco (several tiers above Yank Sing and China Live) — multi-dimensions playing off the taut skin and deep, rustic porky rush of flavor upon the single bite. A version filled “tom yum-style” with shrimp and pork belly is even more riveting courtesy of a final coconut milk surge. They come with the skin lightly beet-stained and it neither really looks or tastes like beets are involved. For single diners, why not try the giant xiao long bao with a menu description that says you’ll need a straw? Challenge accepted if it tastes like the mini version.

You can change seasonings, making it more or less spicy. You can wrap it in a tortilla or bun and transform it into one of the Bay Area’s \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2015/09/25/bay-area-bites-guide-to-5-favorite-fusion-dishes/\" target=\"_blank\">signature food mashups\u003c/a>. Or, like Berkeley’s \u003cstrong>Turkish Kitchen\u003c/strong>, from owner George Baylar and chefs Mehmet Vural and Ferzan Yolcu, you can change the names to make it more familiar to a Bay Area crowd. Thus, a kebab becomes a “Turkish burrito,” and manti, a style of dumplings that Turks have been eating since the Ottoman empire become “Turkish ravioli.” They’re tiny, and packed with a flavorful mix of ground beef, onions and spices. Covered with parsley and a warm yogurt sauce, they’re a well-seasoned, herby and filling comfort food, no matter where you’re from or what you call them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.yelp.com/biz/turkish-kitchen-berkeley-2\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Turkish Kitchen\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1986 Shattuck Ave [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/ViMV37w9yHU2\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nBerkeley, CA 94704\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 540-9997\u003cbr>\nHours: Sun-Thu, 11am-10pm; Fri-Sat, 11am-11pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/Turkish-Kitchen-120919721255790/\" target=\"_blank\">Turkish Kitchen\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$ (Entrees $11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111467\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111467\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199.jpg\" alt=\"Shan Dong's homemade dumplings.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shan Dong's homemade dumplings. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>What more is there to say about Oakland Chinatown’s \u003cstrong>Shan Dong\u003c/strong>?

The Shan Dong special dumplings are plump golf balls, with a thick, doughy wrapper covering a flavorful mix of cabbage and well-seasoned pork. The tangy, vinegary dipping sauce adds a burst of salty richness and is the ideal accompaniment. As the server’s shirts will inform you, the restaurant, one of the few serving Northern Chinese food, is currently celebrating their 20th anniversary.

It’s a homey place with scribbled-on menus (handwritten price updates, “steamed bums” corrected to buns), packed with Cal students watching movies on their phones as they slurp giant bowls of soup and girlfriends catching up in Chinese. The Chengdu Style Dumplings are hearty and juicy, flecked with green onions, but the best part is the red chili oil that characterizes the region’s dishes.

You can change seasonings, making it more or less spicy. You can wrap it in a tortilla or bun and transform it into one of the Bay Area’s \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2015/09/25/bay-area-bites-guide-to-5-favorite-fusion-dishes/\" target=\"_blank\">signature food mashups\u003c/a>. Or, like Berkeley’s \u003cstrong>Turkish Kitchen\u003c/strong>, from owner George Baylar and chefs Mehmet Vural and Ferzan Yolcu, you can change the names to make it more familiar to a Bay Area crowd. Thus, a kebab becomes a “Turkish burrito,” and manti, a style of dumplings that Turks have been eating since the Ottoman empire become “Turkish ravioli.” They’re tiny, and packed with a flavorful mix of ground beef, onions and spices. Covered with parsley and a warm yogurt sauce, they’re a well-seasoned, herby and filling comfort food, no matter where you’re from or what you call them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.yelp.com/biz/turkish-kitchen-berkeley-2\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Turkish Kitchen\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1986 Shattuck Ave [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/ViMV37w9yHU2\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nBerkeley, CA 94704\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 540-9997\u003cbr>\nHours: Sun-Thu, 11am-10pm; Fri-Sat, 11am-11pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/Turkish-Kitchen-120919721255790/\" target=\"_blank\">Turkish Kitchen\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$ (Entrees $11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111467\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111467\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199.jpg\" alt=\"Shan Dong's homemade dumplings.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/IMG_8199-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shan Dong's homemade dumplings. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>What more is there to say about Oakland Chinatown’s \u003cstrong>Shan Dong\u003c/strong>?

The Shan Dong special dumplings are plump golf balls, with a thick, doughy wrapper covering a flavorful mix of cabbage and well-seasoned pork. The tangy, vinegary dipping sauce adds a burst of salty richness and is the ideal accompaniment. As the server’s shirts will inform you, the restaurant, one of the few serving Northern Chinese food, is currently celebrating their 20th anniversary.
