1. Pour all the flour and water into a mixing bowl. Use chopsticks or a wooden spoon to stir everything together. Mix until all the water is absorbed and shaggy pieces of dough start to form.
2. Then, use your hands to gather the dough together. As you do this, dig into the dough with your fingers in a claw-like motion. This helps to distribute the moisture inside the dough. (See note 2 for stand mixer instructions.)
3. Take the dough out of the bowl and knead it on a surface for 2 to 3 minutes. The dough is slightly tacky, but not sticky. You shouldn’t need to flour the surface. If you find the dough is sticky, dust the surface with a little bit of flour and knead the flour into the dough.
4. After several minutes of kneading, you should get a pretty smooth ball of dough. There may be some crags and dimples on the surface, but that’s okay. Place the dough into the bowl again, and cover the bowl with a damp towel or a silicone lid.

1. In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, and water with a spatula, chopsticks, or your hands, until you form a rough dough. Then transfer it onto a working surface and knead for a couple of minutes into a slightly smoother dough. The dumpling dough should be slightly tacky without being sticky.The flour you use and the humidity/temperature of where you live can all affect how absorbent the flour is and the amount of water you'll need, so add a little extra flour or water, if needed, just one tsp at a time until it's right.
2. Add the flour, salt, and water to the bowl and mix at low speed with the dough hook attachment. Once all the water has been incorporated into the flour, increase the speed to medium-low. Continue mixing for about 2 minutes, until a dough forms and all the loose flour has been gathered into the dough. Turn off the stand mixer and transfer the dough onto a surface. Knead it by hand a few times, then shape it into a ball. Place the dough ball back into the mixing bowl and cover it with a damp towel or a silicone lid. Let it rest for 1 hour.
3. While the dough rests, gather the tools you'll need: a rolling pin, a kitchen towel, and a cutter - you can use a cookie cutter, the rim of a wine glass, a small bowl, or something similar based on the size of the dumpling wrappers that you want.
4. Roll out the sheet to roughly 6.5 inches (16.5 cm) wide, cutting off the uneven edges. Then use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter to cut squares around 3x3 inches (7.5x7.5 cm) in size.Gather the scraps to re-roll, though it may be easiest to do this with all the scraps after rolling and cutting out from all the dough portions. Make sure the scraps are wrapped up if you aren't using them immediately.The dumpling wrappers dry out fairly quickly, so place any rolled wrappers under a kitchen towel no matter which method above that you use. If possible, get your household joining in - one person to cut the dumpling wrappers, the next to fill and pleat/seal them. Working in small batches is best to avoid them drying out.
