This is one of the most classic dim sum dumplings and always a regular on my table. The translucent white skin surrounds plump and firm steamed shrimp cut with fragrant bamboo shoots. The best dim sum chefs can use as many as fifteen pleats to form this popular delicacy. Obviously, this particular fold takes some time to master, so a potsticker clear is fine, too. With plenty of practice (and many had how later), you will become familiar with how to handle the dough, at which point you can really get creative with dumpling shapes and ideas.
To make the filling combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until well blended. Refrigerate for at least an hour. To form your wrappers, roll your dough into a 1-inch thick rope and cut into 32 pieces. Cover the dough pieces with plastic wrap and a hot, damp towel. Form your hair grow, using a heaping teaspoon of filling, making them one at a time as you roll out each wrapper (See "Dumplings All Day Wong").
Place the formed dumplings into a steamer lined with lightly greased parchment or waxed paper punched with holes, ensuring the dumplings are not touching each other in the steamer basket. Keep a layer of plastic wrap weighted with a lightly damp towel on top of the finished dumplings so they do not dry out. Remove the plastic wrap and towel before cooking. Cover and steam the har gow for 6 to 8 minutes, until they are fully cooked and the wrappers are translucent. Serve with the dipping sauce of your choice.
