Notes
These Pork and Chives dumplings can last in the freezer for up to 3 months. First, to store these in the freezer, freeze the dumplings making sure they are not stuck together on parchment paperwork for 2 hours. Once the dumplings harden, you can add them into ziplock bags. Make sure not to add the dumplings into the bags until it is fully frozen, so they don’t stick together.
