It was a rainy day and I needed a break from gardening so I decided to use some of the Kimchi I had made after harvesting the Chinese Cabbage. You can find my "Kimchi Recipe" from an earlier post.
I did squeeze out most of the juice from the Kimchi before chopping it into small pieces. I did not want the dumplings to be too wet and not have them stick together.
Normally I use round dumpling wrappers, but my son picked up these plant-based wrappers for me to try. Before filling them I use a pastry brush to moisten the edges with water. This will keep the dumpling together once it is folded.
It is a simple process that takes patience to get through an entire package of wrappers. I put a dollop of the Kimchi into the center and fold the edges together, pressing firmly to seal.
Unfortunately, my folding technique was not the best.
They may not all look uniform, but I did manage to get a full tray of them for freezing.
I'm looking forward to making Kimchi soup with them on a cold winter's day. I may even have to fry some up for lunch to make sure they are tasty. ;-)
Until next time, this is Sunscape

I am yet to have a taste of this delicious kimchi and from mere looking at this post, It is a great meal.. 😊
Wow! Kimchi dumplings! Never had these before. You’re so good in the kitchen! I would raid your kitchen one day!
I am laughing! I think you have already raided the kitchen and the garden too. ;-) Have a blessed week my friend.
I've never eaten Kimchi, so I looked at your earlier post, it looks delicious. Your Chinese cabbage grew beautifully, an excellent harvest for sure!
I look forward to seeing the results when you cook these. Great idea to freeze them!
PS This blog would have been a perfect fit for the Plant Power (Vegan) Community ;)
Thanks Lizelle, I love making my own Kimchi and I did already make a soup with them, but forgot to take a photo. Perhaps when I try frying them, ;-) I never think of putting recipes in the Vegan community. I will have to try to remember that in the future.
Plant based wrappers? What were the ingredients? These dumplings look like they would be just the ticket on a cold winter’s night!
Oh heck,I have know idea but my son is super strict on what he eats so the wrappers had to have the best ingredients.
Kimchi has been my favorite since I watched korean series. ♥️ Looking at your kimchi makes me crave for it even more. 🤗
I have a Korean daughter-in-law so she got me hooked on all kinds of Korean foods. I love making my own Kimchi; the cabbage is easy to grow.
Thank you so much @ewkaw I always appreciate your support.♥
How did they taste/ This is next level! I've made kimchee pancakes before, they were pretty good.
