Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Begin by steaming the frozen gyoza dumplings according to the package instructions, usually 6-8 minutes until they are piping hot and tender. Once cooked, transfer them to a large mixing bowl and drizzle with a teaspoon of sesame oil, tossing gently to coat and prevent sticking.
In a separate bowl, whisk together ¼ cup of tamari, 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup until well combined. Pour it over the warm dumplings in the bowl and gently toss to evenly coat each dumpling.
Slice the heirloom tomatoes, English cucumber, and scallions into bite-sized pieces. Add these vibrant vegetables to the bowl with the dumplings, mixing everything together carefully.
Tear fresh basil leaves into smaller pieces and sprinkle them over the salad for a fragrant touch. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the top for added texture.
Serve your Potsticker Salad at room temperature. If desired, offer garlic chili sauce on the side for an extra kick.
