      Best potsticker dipping sauce ever! Clean, and perfectly complimentary!

      Randomly bought some Sunday for the Super Bowl, but we did not need them. Cooked them last night with some fried rice and they were a big hit. I think I did them once years ago, but now they going on the regular menu. Plus, they are a great frozen backup meal when tired.

      This sauce is delicious! However, after making it for two, we have some leftover. How would you recommend storing it, refrigerator or freezer? We didn’t doubled dip… 🙂

        If you can use it up in the next four days, fridge. If not, freezer.

      Sesame oil for me is confusing to purchase, the dark one is very strong and all recipes never seem to elaborate on which oil to use, can you help with this, love to know what to use and when

      • Jessica

        September 05, 2012 at 10:59 am

        I buy the sesame oil that is in the Asian foods section. It is probably considered dark.

      My friend, who is from China, taught me how to make potstickers years ago. I’ve not done it in a long time, but I should. It’s definitely something to get the kids in on and it’s not hard. You just sort of get a little assembly going and make tons of them. They are very good and I think very affordable. As I recall you just use the wonton wrappers, egg, ground meat, green onions, and some spices. Mix the filling together kind of like meatloaf or meatballs, then fill the wonton and pinch them closed with water. Then boil or fry. You’d want a recipe, of course, but I can tell you it’s easy if a little time consuming.

      Potstickers are probably my hands-down favorite convenience food, and I’ve also bought them many times, mostly from TJs. I never grow tired of them but my husband is not a big fan of them.

        Hey Jessica, we try to avoid soy. Do you think this would work with amino acids instead of soy sauce? That is my go-to replacement for soy sauce. Thanks!

          I think it should work just fine, especially if you’re used to using it. Make a small batch first and taste it?

          I feel the aminos are sweeter so I had to cut back on the sugar to 1 TBS. It is delicious!

      A ditto with Susie on the homemade potstickers! There’s some preservative in the commercial ones that doesn’t sit well, so we make our own (in HUGE batches). It’s very, very easy once you get the hang of folding the pleats. I do use purchased wrappers (about $2 for 60). My recipe is very similar to the one Susie linked. I use a food processor to whirl the cabbage (I use regular green, not Napa), some carrots, green onion, and already-chopped fresh ginger, and I do overwork the mixture just a tad so it holds together really nicely.

      I spent $10 on our last batch… and made nearly 100 potstickers, so it serves us really well. They freeze like a dream, and cook from frozen exactly like the bagged ones do.

      I am 100% with you on the simplified holiday meals! We do “party food” inexpensively with homemade treats, and everyone loves it.

        Wow! That is impressive. I may have to try them now.

        Hi Jessica!

        On on 10/30/2011 “Susie E.”posted a link for potstickers as follows:

        http://www.freezerdinner.com/recipes/mmmmm-pot-stickers/

        OF COURSE that web address now belongs to someone else (gee, it’s only BEEN 12 years!) — I was wondering if maybe you copied that recipe, or maybe one of your other readers copied it…?!

        What you think? I really enjoy your tips and recipes, keep up the good work. 🙂

          Sorry, Jodi. That’s not something I kept track of. But, I bet a quick google search will help you find a homemade potsticker recipe.

      No homemade potstickers for us post kids, either, though Alton Brown has a great recipe. But Trader Joes has awesome frozen ones…

      I’ve discovered a great recipe for potstickers. It is flexible, easy, and makes a ton so you can freeze them for future meals. I start with the recipe found here: http://www.freezerdinner.com/recipes/mmmmm-pot-stickers/ but I tweak it to include whatever veggie I have on hand. I’ve read that the secret is to “overwork” the sausage so it will hold together. I just toss the ingredients it in the food processor while I get everything else together. I cook them by dropping them in boiling water. when they float to the top, viola! It impresses the kids every time.

      Please give me the recipe for the pot stickers… thanks ever so much,

        What is neutral oil?might be a silly question but it confused me…lol

        • Jessica Fisher

          April 30, 2021 at 8:22 pm

          Whatever doesn’t have flavor. Olive oil is usually flavored so that’s not a great option. But, avocado, canola, or vegetable are neutral oils.

      @AllieZirkle, Yum! Last nite we had potstickers & fried rice from the leftover brown rice from dinner the prior night. (repurpose with a purpose!) Hubby wanted to try the included sauce. Next time we’ll try your sauce because the included sauce was too twangy for the little kiddos. This is definitely a good cheap eat for a mid-week meal!

      🙂 Allie

      December 30, 2010 at 12:27 pm

      This sounds oh so good! I think we’ll need to add this to our dinner list for next week, once the kiddos are back to school. I’m sure we’ll need a quick go-to dinner one of the nights.
