Helen’s Dumpling Press easily creates authentic stuffed dumplings and other pocket-style foods as hours d-oeuvres, desserts, and snacks. Quickly form and fill dough rounds, then seal in flavor with the classic decorative fluted edges. Homemade dumplings that are uniform in size cook evenly for better-tasting results. Simply roll and cut a 4-inch round of dough, or use store-bought potsticker wrappers, and drape over the open press. Spoon in 1-rounded teaspoon of filling and press the handles together to seal in the stuffing. Cook according to recipe. Also great for making empanadas, kreplachs, pasties, perogies, piroshki, potstickers, samosas, raviolis, turnovers, and more. Helen Chen's Dumpling Press is made polypropylene, which contains no BPA. Easy to use and store. Dishwasher safe for easy cleanup. Brought to you by HIC-Harold Import Company.

A smart little tool, this dumpling press from Helen's Asian Kitchen turns out perfectly uniform potstickers, pasties, and perogies in short time and with little mess. Designed in collaboration with Helen Chen, daughter of Chinese food pioneer Joyce Chen, the piece is crafted from polyethylene for lightweight use. Its hinged design produces 4-inch dumplings by tidily tucking filling inside and crimping the edge with a close of the handles. Removal is simple so prep and cooking are streamlined. For cleanup, the press goes into the dishwasher or scrubs up easily by hand. --Emily Bedard

This item isn't eligible for return and absolutely useless because of very flimsy

This didn’t do the job for us. We ordered two and it wouldn’t seal the dumplings. We wet the corners and the “crimp” was not enough.

Works well but could have been made better overall, just a plastic tool and I think something more sturdier like stainless steel would be better overall

This is nicely built, and works well for making dumplings. Easy to clean.

Love this thing! Very easy to use with reliable results. Make sure to wet the edge of your wrappers and don’t over fill them. Be mindful of the orientation of each wrapper and you can get them to look pretty consistent.

We’ve been making dumplings by hand but this simplifies the process. Seems durable and is the perfect size for our needs. No complaints!

I was so excited about this product because I love to make dumplings (but it would take forever to crimp). While it looked pretty when I used this press, as soon as you try to boil or fry the dumplings, the dumplings open at the seams, even when sealed with water. Not impressed, unfortunately.

I was eager to try these and was hoping to have the opportunity too. However, I was not give the chance. Came to me broken in pieces. It's made of cheap plastic that was already cracked. And it was dusty, very dirty. Go with the steel ones, better quality and will not chip like these. Not safe.

I enjoy dim sum and we live in an area where it is not really available. So we tackle dumplings every once and a while. This press has simplified the process of making pot stickers quite a bit. I can make an entire package of dumpling skins into pot stickers in less than 1/2 hour. No that doesn't cover making the filling itself, but overall in an hour we can be eating lovely dumplings and I am not going crazy with wetting and folding the dumpling skins and having them unfold or tear. This press holds a slightly less than a teaspoon of filling and a round dumpling skin and just a quick press and onto the next one. I do use a fingertip of water on the edge on one side. I like the little handles. I spray mine with a touch of Pam at the beginning and it works for the whole batch. It is still a messy process so I make mine over a sheet pan and keep the mess more contained. This is a great inexpensive easy to use product and definitely a great idea.Recently we bought some larger potsticker skins from a San Francisco market which were a bit larger and thicker.They held almost 2 teaspoons of filling and it was a much faster and easier process to make dinner. Mostly we use the supermarket variety which are round and about 1/2" smaller than the inside of the press which is why those dumplings are so small. The press is still one of my favorite dedicated kitchen tools.
