Dumpling House
328 Spadina Ave. Toronto
The dumplings are great (as good as Mother’s Dumplings? up for debate) and inexpensive. I do recommend going there to eat but the real deal is the frozen bags of dumplings. They’re available in any flavour on the menu and it’s $10 for three bags of a dozen.
That’s $3.30 per bag!
That’s 27 cents per dumpling!
GO!

One bag is a satisfying dinner for one.
To cook, thaw the dumplings, heat some oil over medium heat in a skillet with a lid and place them flat side down in the oil. Let them sit until the bottoms are golden brown (about a minute) then pour 1/2 a cup of water in the pan and cover for 3-4 minutes. Take the lid off and let any remaining water boil off.
If you don’t have time to thaw them, you can cook them straight from frozen for 8 to 10 minutes in a bamboo steamer (you can pick one up anywhere in Chinatown for $5 to $10 – definitely a worthwhile investment).
Serve the dumplings with a mixture of 1 part vinegar to 2 parts soy sauce for dipping.
