How to cook deliciously - Spicy Pork and Spinach Dumplings with Soy Dipping Sauce

Sprinkle flour on a baking sheet and arrange dumpling wrappers on top. Drop 1 teaspoon of pork filling in center of each wonton wrapper. One by one, brush edges of the wonton wrappers with a bit of water. Fold them in half and gently pinch the edges together, then crimp. Transfer finished dumplings to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
