Guizhou, Ignored by the Dog
Ingredients:
12 ounces ground pork
2 Tablespoon sesame oil, divided in half
3 Tablespoons ground chicken fat
3 Tablespoons dark soy sauce
3 Tablespoons fresh minced ginger
10 dumpling bun dough

Preparation:
1. Mix ground pork and the chicken fat and two tablespoons ice water and stir slowly and carefully until all is incorporated into the meat, then add the soy sauce, and the ginger, and continue stirring until it, too, is stirred into the meat.
2. Brush a bowl with very little of the sesame oil.
3. Roll each batch of dough until about six inches, then wrap it twice around two tablespoons of the meat mixture sealing all edges of the dough with water brushing its outside with the rest of the sesame oil. Steam over boiling water for eight minutes, then put them on an oil-brushed bowl, and serve.
