# Cool the dumplings and skewer 3-4 in bamboo sticks.
# You can also microwave on high for 7 minutes (you might want to put them in a microwave safe flat pan instead of shaping them into dumplings before cooking, you can shape them afterwards, especially if you want to fill them with an [azuki bean paste] or frozen rounds of peanut butter).
