 1 cup Chopped Garlic Chives or Chinese Chives
 Kosher Salt & Freshly Ground Black Pepper
 1 8 oz. Package Of Firm Tofu
 3 tbsp Hoisin Sauce
 70 Dumpling Wrappers

Dipping Sauce
 ¼ cup Soy Sauce, Preferably Dark
 ¼ cup Rice Vinegar
 1 tbsp Light Brown Sugar

Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, ginger, and garlic chives and cook for 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and let it cool.

2

In a large bowl, combine the pork, tofu, and hoisin sauce with the chive mixture.

3

Holding a dumpling wrapper flour side down, place a tablespoon of the pork mixture onto the middle of the wrapper. Dip your index finger into the beaten egg and rub it over half of the outer edge of the dumpling. Fold it in half, crimping it in the middle and sealing along the egg-moistened side taking care not to leave any air pockets.
