Vegan Dumplings with Black Garlic Essence and Sesame Oil

Black Garlic Essence mixed with black sesame oil and fermented rococo chilis top these delicious dumplings from Luntian kitchens in Auckland. (Check them out when you get the chance!)

These handmade dumplings are stuffed with TVP (textured vegetable protein), mushrooms, carrots, and wombok. Served with fresh alfalfa sprouts. YUM.

For convenience, try buying frozen dumplings. Once they're cooked to your liking, drizzle with Black Garlic Essence and sesame oil for all-natural flavour.
