• Place a small spoonful of the mushroom filling in the center of each dumpling wrapper. Wet the edges of the wrapper with water, fold in half, and pinch the edges to seal. Repeat until all the filling is used.
• Prepare a steamer basket by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Arrange the dumplings in a single layer in the steamer basket, leaving space between them to prevent sticking together.

• Once steamed, remove the dumplings from the steamer and garnish with sesame seeds or green onions if desired.
