You can store the Chinese Dumplings in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, well-sealed in an airtight container. Alternatively, you can freeze them by arranging them raw on a floured tray; once hardened, transfer them to a food bag and freeze them for up to 3 months. There will be no need to thaw them, but extend the cooking time if steaming.
Adjust the water used for the dough based on how much the flour absorbs, as you may need more or less depending on the quality of the flour, humidity, etc.
Alternatively, you can roll out the dough with a rolling pin, cut the dumplings with a 4-inch diameter cutter, and then proceed to fill and seal them.
You can also add chopped shallots or grated ginger, oyster sauce, or ground Sichuan pepper to the filling.
