I have never made bao buns and I haven't worked with yeast since junior high home ec class.

:ohdear: scared

I’d think bao are going to be quite a bit easier. You don’t really need to roll it out, just kinda shape the bun around the filling. I’ve made them before and I remember them being super easy, I feel like when you try to make thin stuff is when wheat doughs get difficult.

My zucchini icsa entry had vegan dumplings, I should just make that again.

I’ll try and make an entry, it I’m not going to promise to do everything for one meal. Possibly two dumplings for a dinner then dessert separately.

Wait, wait, wait. Is the expectation a whole menu of dumplings, or just one dish? I normally do a big dinner party, but I think “vegan dumplings” is a bit limiting for having friends round…

IDK, I thought it’s usually like 3 dishes in the theme, one being a dessert. Like that’s how the zucchini one was but that’s the only one I ever did.

But I think I did some of them separately since it’s hard for me to make more than like 2 foods at once. I’m bad at multitasking.

OTOH I feel like there’s value in just doing whatever too? Like can’t make it too hard but IDK where that line is.

I didn’t end up making dumplings, but I’ll post my ideas anyway.

Tabbouleh gyoza
Tex-Mex bao (veggies and beans in a hybrid masa/wheat bun)
Peanut butter and jelly bao as dessert.

Oh yeah and I liked this idea too: cold borscht soup dumplings
